110. U Can't Touch This - MC Hammer

November 22nd 2008 21:54

Yes, I had to include it because of it's impact in the whole rap R & B world - MC Hammer made the phrases U Can't Touch This and Hammertime part of everyday language in this epic rap song about how good he was. Of course it all starts with the sample from Rick James masterful funk number SuperFreak. There is much to be made of this clip - one of the original booty shaking clips, that oversize parachute pants, the bizarre little dance thing has does. But my favourite moment is about four minute in as he sings the lyrics "I've toured around the world from London to Bombay" - there is a 3 second slo mo shot of him jumping backwards wearing only his underwear and a bowler hat - it ALWAYS cracks me up. Enjoy

101. This Is Why I'm Hot - Mims - Directed by Dale Restighini

November 21st 2008 06:45

Rapper Mims had a big hit last year with this song explaining just why he is hot. Directed by hip hop stalwart Dale Restighini the clip for the song uses high contrast washed out shots coupled together with very fast flashy cutting - an interesting exercise in music video making and the result is quite striking as watchable. Hope you enjoy.

99. We Fly High - Jim Jones - Directed by Dale Resteghini

November 20th 2008 11:52
Another rapper/hip hop star doing a song about living in the fast lane with all the trappings of living in the fast lane - namely fast cars, private jets and women. Jim Jones apparently got into a bit of a war of words with fellow rap icon JayZ over this song. Here it is.

93. I Know What You Want - Busta Rhymes ft. Mariah Carey - Directed by Chris Robinson

November 18th 2008 22:25

This song and video brings together a fairly unlikely partnership. The single's video, directed by Chris Robinson, features Busta Rhymes, the Flipmode Squad, and Carey lounging around an expensive mansion as they debate whether they "know what they want". Carey advertises her own brand of jewelry, Automatic Princess. I guess this is the way of music videos with alot more product tie in (a bit like Rihanna's Umbrella song cosmetics deal). Anyway here is I know want you want. Enjoy.

86. Sky's The Limit - Notorious B.I.G. Ft. Puff Daddy - Directed by Spike Jonze

November 15th 2008 23:14

How do you do a music video when the star performer is dead?? The brilliant Spike Jonze overcame this problem by using kids to portray the fast hard living lifestyle of dead rap star Notorious B.I.G. - the result is surreal but also has a kind of heart to it. The kids are like miniature versions of the stars and entourage they play and put an innocence back into what can be a violent world. It also works beautifully with the song's title and meaning behind the sky being the limit. Enjoy.

82. Candy Shop - 50 cent - Directed by Jesse Terrero

November 14th 2008 22:24

Pretty much your atypical rapper video with the candy shop being a place to find scantily clad booty shaking women. The music video was directed by Jessy Terrero and features Olivia as the lead dancer and several models including Chessika Cartwright (as a dominatrix), "Lyric" (as a nurse), and Erica Mena (as the girl in bed). It also features cameo appearances from Lil Scrappy and G-Unit members Lloyd Banks and Young Buck. I don't who finds this stuff fresh anymore but you have to hand it to fiddy - he has come a long way. Enjoy.

69. Testify - Common - Anthony Mandler

November 7th 2008 12:28

Award winning clip for rapper Common - a wonderful example of the "mini movie" style clip that michael jackson so perfected. Common has grown into one of the more reliable stars of the rap world. Enjoy this clip!

66. Yes We Can - Will I Am - Directed by Jesse Dylan

November 7th 2008 08:06

With the victory of Barack Obama I thought I'd take a look at a video that shows that music video can do more than just entertain. This video seen by more than 10 million people uses the soaring inspiring words of Obama spoken and sung simultaneously by celebrities who endorse. An interesting point - the film clip's director Jesse Dylan is the son of folk singing legend Bob Dylan. Enjoy this clip that will go down in history with the famous election it accompanied.

47. Drop - The Pharcyde - Directed by Spike Jonze

October 24th 2008 10:43

Once again the genius of director SPike Jonze is on display for all to see with this clip for old school hip hop outfit - The Pharcyde. The entire clip is in reverse but so beautifully thought out that it seems that it is moving normally just that it looks a bit weird. It has been copied many times since but no one has come close to pulling it off like Jonze. Enjoy!

39. 99 Problems - Jay Z - Directed by Mark Romanek

October 10th 2008 10:26

Mark Romanek has worked with artists as diverse as Johnny Cash, The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Weezer and Michael Jackson. Here he again shows his versatility teaming with Rapper JayZ for this fine clip for the song 99 Problems (from the black album). Breaking the stereotype of what a rap video normally looks like going for gritty black and white and beautifully shot. Watch for the cameo from famed rock/rap producer Rick Rubin. I love this clip

36. Sabotage - Beastie Boys - Directed by Spike Jonze

October 10th 2008 09:49

Talk about fun music videos - this homage to low budget 1970's cop shows is an absolute riot. Each member of the group plays an actor playing a character (complete with crazy subtitle). It moves at a million miles an hour and is a great example of Spike Jonze's sense of fun and play. Have fun with this clip

Hot off the press and straight to number 1. The current stars of hip hop and R&B come together for this number. Rihanna is probably R&B's new top diva and TI keeps his hold on the number one rapper spot. Enjoy
