FRIDAY CHEESECAKE: BOBARABA!
Begin with the hat tip to the Official EDSBS Bundameister Kanu, who led us to the marvelous cheesecake we offer today.
The biggest hit in Cote D’Ivoire at the moment is “Bobaraba,” a song whose title in the local Djouf means a large and very attractive behind. (Same number of syllables as “Badonkadonk;” deep grammar types, rejoice!) The concept behind (snicker) the song:
“We made it as a tribute to women, because African women are defined by the shape of their bottoms,” he says.
“Move your bottom, jump, you see, it’s alive.”
So, bunda becomes Bobaraba today as we celebrate the ladies of West Africa and Cote d’Ivoire.
BOBARABA! Any video that begins with an exploding logo must be awesome. Feel free to clear the office chairs out and shake your own bobaraba, even if it’s on the flat and caucasoid side.
Additional examples of bobarabage follow after the jump, including one pic of Absolutely Amber, who you’ll agree has an honorary bobaraba.

Chg @ 34 - I can’t speak for anyone else, but it doesn’t get much more suburban than me, and I was committed to the big butt then and now.
Doesn’t mean that I am immune to the charms of the smaller perky butt, mind you - it’s possible to find an ass that has nothing to recommend it but the chase is better than the catch in that case, as metal lothario Lemmy reminds us.

Whatever happened to ole pancake butt….just like mom used to make. I know how to impress these girls. I’ll tell em it’s their birthday, then I’ll tell em I don’t give a fuck it’s their birthday.
Anyway, I dug the pics. The song was ass…..literally. I think everyone dissing Orson’s bunda choice has pissed him off and rendered me with nothing to read on this sunday morning while I’m stuck in luxurious Starkville.
MOTHERFUCKERS!

The three leaning on the bar in the second picture—three times the fun, and you have a nice variety of shapes and, no doubt, other, umm, proclivities?

This is a pretty funny video of Bear Bryant being interviewed at halftime of some Iron Bowl at some point, looks like the 80s.

None of that Bunda would ever fit on an AirTrans flight.

I could get lost in #1’s. Literally, I think I could fit.

#1- Your work is much appreciated.
I don’t get the professions of bunda love (though I also don’t fully believe them- not many suburban kids actually went after girls with big butts in Sir Mix-a-Lot’s heyday either).

Orson I disagree with the naysayers and enjoyed the diverse selection of bunda. Especially the last pic.

The cardinal virtue of all beauty is restraint.
#1 is bordering on freakish, in one straight white boy’s opinion.
(Hate to see that thang in 15 or 20 years.)

So have we trasitioned from Bunda of the Latin variety to Bobaraba of the African variety? Cause I’m cool with that.

Her ass is, like, so big… she must be one of those rap guys’ girlfriends…
Mix-a-lot approves.

#1…as vol @ #24 has so ably stated, your time and effort has not been wasted…to the contrary. Well- worked, proportionate glutes are a thing of beauty and a joy forever…(sorry…got the ‘ideal’ thing goin’)…alot to be said for a firm, stable structure in the power center of the overall machine…enhances any activity imaginable. Have I given this too much thought?
On that note, I’m gonna take my narrow ass to the martini-gittin’ place and regale my fellow patrons with tales of EDSBS…with emphasis on the BS…bon soir.
