13 More Music Videos with Street Art

I put all the Street Art Music Videos I've found so far on a YouTube playlist for you. #YouTubeNchill


1. Oshun - "Stuck" 2014  These two couldn't be more awe-inspiring. If this video doesn't convince you, their Team Backpack performance, their video for "Protect Your Self" and this interview with The Hundreds will help you love them more.




2. Joey Bada$$ - "Christ Conscious" 2014  Seeing Joey Bada$$ perform this song live may get you closer to believing this could be true.





3. DJ Premier feat. Rakim, Nas, + KRS-One - "Classic (Better Than I've Ever Been)" 2007  DJ Premier, Rakim, Nas, and KRS-One will always be classic (definition - serving as a standard of excellence).




4. Run The Jewels - "Lie, Cheat, Steal" 2015  If you are hoping to learn some life lessons from the Run The Jewels team, let it be their ability to sustain long careers in the music industry. Lying, cheating, and stealing to get to where you want to go will not keep you at the top.




5. Pro Era (Capital STEEZ, Joey Bada$$, + CJ Fly) - "Like Water" 2013  I couldn't be more impressed by the rise of the Pro Era crew. Joey Bada$$ first appeared on my website back in 2013 with his timeless classic, "Waves," on a compilation of Music Videos With Rooftop Scenes.




6. Gangrene (Alchemist + Oh No) feat. Action Bronson - "Driving Gloves" 2015  They are incredible musicians but they will fuck your shit up. Simon Rex/Dirt Nasty is the perfect car rental agent.




7. The Internet - "Get Away" 2015  The Ego Death album is on point.




8. Heltah Skeltah Feat. Originoo Gunn Clappaz - "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka" 1996  This is a Where's Waldo graffiti wall spotting that probably belongs in the Music Videos With White Backgrounds list. But I will put Heltah Skeltah on ANY list just because.




9. Aesop Rock - "Freeze" 2003  Soon, underground clinics like this may be our only affordable source of health care; Aesop Rock is the oracle?




10. Selector Dub Narcotic - "Hotter Than Hott" 2016  This K Records gem premiered on Pitchfork. The video reminds me of LCD Soundsystem, Thom Yorke dancing in "Lotus Flower," and Christopher Walken dancing in the Fatboy Slim video.




11. Mad Lion - "Take It Easy" 1994  I'm waiting patiently for the next Mad Lion feature...




12. Kazi + Madlib - "To Be Lost" 2016  According to this 2DopeBoyz article, this song/album (Blackmarket Seminar) was recorded back in 1996 and recently re-released via Below System Records (Netherlands).




13. Metasota - "All Luv" 2016  I was blessed to see Metasota at The Crocodile recently when he opened up for Prof on the TimeBomb tour. He's headlining his own tour this June...
