Bulin 47 AI vs Face Swap: Recast the Whole Rapper From One Photo
Bulin 47 AI is the trend that recasts the viral street freestyle in which Dominican rapper Bulin 47 answers Kevin Wai's dembow speaker outside a red-lit restaurant in Spain. A face swap only pastes your face over his; this template edits the original clip so your whole look — face, hair, build and clothes — takes the rapper's place, while Kevin Wai, the crowd, the camera and the sound stay. One photo, no prompt.

Seedance 2.5 gives the best likeness, reviews your photo and the clip before rendering and is the only model for the full 19 seconds. Usually a few minutes. Every run comes out a little different.
Your photo replaces the rapper in this clip — it is not a result made from your photo. Play it with sound: the original freestyle audio comes with your video.
What is Bulin 47 AI?
Bulin 47 AI is a fan-made AI video trend, not an app from the artist: people remake Kevin Wai's viral clip of Bulin 47 freestyling with someone else as the rapper. This page does it with a reference template — the AI edits the original clip from one photo, so the moves, the handheld camera, Kevin Wai and the sound are the original's and only the rapper changes. Prices run from 5 to 588 credits.

Where the clip comes from
Bulin 47 is a Dominican dembow artist. In early October 2026, freestyler and creator Kevin Wai stopped him outside a restaurant in Spain (fan pages place it in Madrid) with a portable speaker playing a dembow beat. Bulin 47 answered with an improvised freestyle and a little dance; the phone clip passed 50 million views and became an AI remix format, with footballers, memes and ordinary people swapped in as the rapper.

Face swap vs the Bulin 47 AI template: what actually changes
A face swap app maps your face onto the rapper and leaves the rest of him. A reference template replaces the whole person. Part by part:
| In the clip | Face swap app | This template |
|---|---|---|
| Face | Yours | Yours, with your expressions on his lyrics |
| Dark wraparound sunglasses | Usually stay on, or the swap breaks under them | Gone, unless your photo has glasses |
| Shaved head and goatee | His | Your hair and facial hair |
| Pink mesh shirt, gold watch, arm tattoos | His | Your outfit from the photo |
| Build and skin tone | His | Yours |
| Kevin Wai, camera, red entrance, sound | Kept | Kept; bystanders redrawn as invented strangers |
So a face swap reads as "Bulin 47 with my face"; the template reads as "me in his freestyle". If you only want the face, a face swap app is quicker; for the whole look, use a template.

The ways people make the trend, from each tool's public pages on October 11, 2026. Features change; we have not tested every tool's output.
| Way to make it | What you give it | Original clip and camera | Sound | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bulin 47 AI template (this page) | One photo | Kept: the original clip is edited | Original freestyle audio | The exact viral clip with your whole look, no prompt |
| Face swap apps | A face photo and the clip | Kept, body and clothes unchanged | Kept | A quick face-only joke |
| CapCut / Dreamina templates and prompts | A photo, often a prompt | A new lookalike scene | Added in the editor | Your own variation of the idea |
| Kling, Runway, Pika (image-to-video) | A photo and a prompt | Regenerated: the moves are guessed | Add it yourself | An all-new scene in the same spirit |
| Viggle, Higgsfield, Kling motion control | A photo plus the clip you bring | Moves copied; the background is usually rebuilt | Usually add it yourself | Your own clip or a different dance |
General video models are strong at new scenes; they are not built to keep this one clip — the crowd, the red stairs, Kevin Wai's speaker and the beat — intact. That is the job of a reference template.
What AI model is behind Bulin 47 AI videos?
Most dedicated Bulin 47 AI generators, this one included, run ByteDance's Seedance in reference mode: the model receives your photo and the original clip and is told to replace one person while following the clip's motion and camera. The sound is not generated — it is the clip's own audio, laid back under the result.
Here Seedance 2.5 gives the closest likeness and is the only model that makes the whole 19 seconds; Seedance 2.0 Mini, Fast and 2.0 make the 5, 10 or 15-second opening for fewer credits. Motion-control tools such as Kling or Viggle can copy the moves too, but they rebuild the scene around you.
Recreating it in Kling, Runway or another general tool
If you would rather use a general AI video tool, you need a copy of the clip, a motion-reference or video-to-video mode and a written instruction. A starting prompt:
Use the reference video for motion, camera and setting. Replace only the man in dark sunglasses and the pink mesh shirt with the person in the image: their face, hair, skin tone, build and clothes. Keep the man holding the round black speaker, the red-lit restaurant entrance, the crowd and the shaky vertical phone camera. Same gestures, laugh, raised arm and shoulder bounce, same timing. One continuous shot, no cuts.
Expect to add the dembow audio in an editor, to trim to the tool's length limit, and to retry when the crowd or the speaker drifts. With the template on this page none of that is needed.
How to make a Bulin 47 AI video here
In a phone or laptop browser, with nothing to install and no prompt.
- 01
Add one photo
One person facing the camera, face clear, no sunglasses. Waist-up is best, so your outfit replaces the pink mesh shirt.
- 02
Pick the length and model
5, 10 or 15 seconds is the opening of the freestyle; 19 seconds is the whole clip on Seedance 2.5. The exact credit price shows on the button before you generate.
- 03
Generate and download
It usually takes a few minutes. Download the vertical MP4 with the original sound for TikTok, Reels or Shorts.
Photos that recast the whole look
The template takes your face, hair, build and clothes from one photo, so the photo decides what replaces each part of the rapper.
- Face toward the camera, eyes visible, even light — the clip already has a pair of sunglasses to remove.
- Waist-up or full body, in the outfit you want to wear in the clip.
- One person, at least 300 px on the short side, sharp rather than heavily filtered.
- Yourself, or an adult who agreed; pets and drawn characters keep their own look.
- Group photos: the model cannot tell who to use.
- Celebrities, politicians or anyone who did not agree.
Seedance 2.5 reviews your photo first; if it refuses it, the credits come back.

Bulin 47 AI vs other tools: FAQ
Which gives better Bulin 47 results: Runway, Kling, Pika or a dedicated template?
For the viral clip itself, a dedicated template. Runway, Kling and Pika generate a new video from your photo and a prompt, so the crowd, the red entrance, Kevin Wai and the beat are approximations you add or fix yourself. A template edits the original clip and keeps all of that; the general tools are better when you want a new scene.
Is Bulin 47 AI better than a normal face swap app for TikTok?
It changes more. A face swap keeps Bulin 47's shaved head, sunglasses, pink mesh shirt, tattoos and build and only puts your face on him. This template replaces the whole rapper with your face, hair, build and outfit while the clip and sound stay, so it reads as you in the freestyle rather than him with your face.
What AI model is actually used behind Bulin 47 AI videos?
Mostly ByteDance's Seedance in reference mode: your photo plus the original clip, with an instruction to replace the rapper and follow the clip's motion. This page uses Seedance 2.5 by default (the only one here for the full 19 s) and Seedance 2.0 Mini, Fast and 2.0 for shorter, cheaper versions. The audio is the clip's own.
What prompt should I use for a Bulin 47 AI style video in a general AI video generator?
Use the tool's video-reference mode with the clip, and describe the swap precisely: replace only the man in dark sunglasses and the pink mesh shirt with the person in your image, keep the speaker holder, the red-lit entrance, the crowd and the shaky vertical camera, same gestures and timing, one continuous shot. The full prompt is on this page. You will still need to add the audio.
Can I make the Bulin 47 video with Viggle, Kling motion control or CapCut?
Yes, if you bring the clip yourself: motion-control tools copy the moves onto your photo, but usually rebuild the background, and CapCut or Dreamina prompts make a lookalike scene. Neither keeps the original crowd and audio without extra editing, which is what the template here does in one step.
Will Bulin 47's sunglasses or pink shirt stay in my video?
They shouldn't: the instructions remove his sunglasses, shirt, watch, chains and tattoos and take everything from your photo. A leftover is most likely when your photo is a tight face crop, so use a waist-up photo; a failed or refused video is refunded.
Your whole look, his freestyle
One photo, the original clip and sound, no prompt.
