bigted Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 Here's my all time favorites in no random order: BDP feat. Doug E. Fresh, MC Lyte, Heavy D, Public Enemy, and others "Self Destruction", Such a powerful song and video, nice to see all these legends in one video Public Enemy "Fight The Power", another powerful song and video, it was for Spike Lee's classic "Do The Right Thing" BDP "My Philosophy", the 1st black and white video in hip-hop history, it was a nice tribute to the great Scott La Rock 2Pac and Dr. Dre "California Love", this video is like a movie, the hip-hop's version of "Thriller", this shows the artistic genious of 2Pac Rakim "When I Be On Da Mic", a nice throwback video in the late '90s Eric B. and Rakim "Microphone Fiend", it shows a young kid lovin' to go on the mic, this is what hip-hop is all about Slick Rick "Children's Story", one of the funniest videos ever Dr. Dre and Snoop Doggy Dogg "Ain't Nothin' But A 'G' Thing", this represents the west coast vibe Naughty By Nature "Hip-Hop Horray", Naughty By Nature tearin' it up, 'Jersey's hip-hop at it's finest LL Cool J and Boyz II Men "Hey Lover", such a smooth mid-90s vibe just like the song and last but not least DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince "Parents Just Don't Understand", this hilarious video inspired the creation of "The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotzappa11 Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 (edited) Beastie Boys - Intergalactic (This just seemed ahead of it's time, beastie Boys going round Japan rapping while a giant robot fights a evil squid, haha) De La Soul - Ooh Ooh (I think thats what it's called, i've only seen it once and the members of DLS are dressed up like in the story to Follow The Yellow Brick Road, it's just hilarious) DJ Format - We Know Something You Dont Know (Breakdancing animals, enough said) JJFP - Summertime (Just pure bliss, it brings out all the emotions of summer) I also love "Drop" by The Pharcyde, along with their video for "Passin Me BY" also. P.s I thought there were 3 videos for "Jesus Walks" by Kanye. Edited March 14, 2005 by hotzappa11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigted Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 KRS-ONE "Step Into A World"(Rapture's Delight), A perfect display of the hip-hop culture FP "Miami", that was such a fun looking video, there was some nice eye candy in that video too Nas feat. Lauryn Hill "If I Ruled The World", it's my favorite Nas video and song, this represents the street essence of hip-hop Salt-N-Pepa feat. En Vogue "Whatta Man", what I can I say they were looking gorgeous in this video, it was a great song too, I know a lot of guys would've wanted to be in this video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
