Ol' Dirty Bastard -- "Brooklyn Zoo"

The original video. It's not surprising, but it is a shame that this video and its shameless Asian bashing was swiftly replaced by a more milquetoast version. That may be the first time anyone has described something associated with ODB as "milquetoast." Politically incorrect it is, but only a true visionary could conceive a video that climaxes with a Chinese street vendor being shoved into a car trunk filled with lit fireworks.

Ill Al Skratch -- "Where my Homiez"

I know a lot of people who swear they're down. But they probably don't know nothing about this. Punisher jackets. Junior's. Camo jumpsuits. Can't go wrong.

Roy Jones Jr. -- "Y'all Musta Forgot"

I been too serious lately. Time for sublime comic relief in the form of Roy Jones, Jr.

Nine -- "Whatcha Want"

You don't need to hire Hype Williams to shoot a video of you driving around in a jeep and hanging out in Washington Square Park. One of hip-hop's truly memorable voices.

R. Kelly -- "Down Low"

Ronald Isley, you are the best. And you look like the great white in Shark Tale.

Outkast video dump!

I'm sick of this! I like doing this blog because I can go on YouTube every day and pick whatever dumbass video suits me. This Outkast project is taking forever. I'm putting all the rest of the relevant videos up today, and afterwards moving onto something truly dope, like Bone Thugs.

Outkast feat. Raekwon -- "Skew it on the Bar-B"

Hey, Braves fans -- didn't you think Raekwon was actually Terry Pendleton in that Atlanta cap? Anyway, back to the show. Everyone who's anyone says "Aquemini" is the best 'Kast album. This proves once again that I am nobody. There were just too many eight-minute funk tracks with people moaning and wailing like polytonal Buddhist monks on there for me. Wisely, none of these songs were ever made into singles or videos, and the normal songs that did become singles are really very good and don't quite convey the madness looming on the second half of that album. You'll just have to take Andre's polar bear outfit in this video as a hint.

Outkast -- "Rosa Parks"

"We need some space futuristic type things, let's do that!" And so began the official decline. It doesn't affect this song, but Andre might have considered incorporating a black robe and sickle outfit to go along with his Legion of Doom/WWI infantry man look and his LA Gear goggles, catcher's vest and tiger-print Hammer pants get-up.
