'08 (and all years prior) was plagued with bad videos. You may have to extend your honorable mention list to include Weezy's "Mrs Officer / Comfortable", Nas "Hero", Game "Camera Phone", Trina "Single Again" (i think that was this year), anything Lil Boosie did... my head hurts :-( Wouldn't it have just been easier to do a "best of..." list since it's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo short? Ha! Your list is on point. ‘08 (and all years prior) was plagued with bad videos.

Wouldn’t it have just been easier to do a “best of…” list since it’s sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo short? Ha!

I recently saw dude and was really tempted to simply ask how he went from working with Dilla to releasing shit like Arab Money. Also - the original release of the song says "Eh-Rab" while the video says "Ah-Rab". I'm sure Busta felt like his song was much more acceptable after that change...
