My Animated Music Videos YouTube playlist is up to 78 videos and counting...
1. Jay-Z - "The Story Of OJ" 2017 I can't mention this Jay-Z album without mentioning that Grape God did it first. That said, this song/video is awesome.
2. Sevdaliza - "That Other Girl" 2015 Sevdaliza stays weird in the very best way.
3. Chelou - "Halfway To Nowhere" 2016 Still can't decide if I love this song but since I've watched the video at least five times, it must be aight.
4. theMIND Feat. Mick Jenkins, Noname, Jesse Boykins III - "Animated Ambition" 2016 Noname for the win...
5. Mndsgn - "Alluptoyou" 2016 It's nearly impossible to be smoother than this.
6. King Reign - "Santa Romeo" 2017 This video was released posthumously by those who wanted to see this track get the love it deserves.
7. Jonwayne - "LIVE From The Fuck You" 2017 STONES THROW Leave him alone, he's with his boys!
8. Dabbla feat. Graziella - "Psychoville" 2016 UK HIP HOP "Thanks for being here. Theres lots of cool shit to see and free music to download and share so enjoy yourself, have a gander, buy some shit and help me continue to make music until it transmorph's into an actual job enabling me to escape the social grid and become a revolutionary pillar of the global community."
- Excerpt from Dabbla's Soundcloud bio
9. Gorillaz - "Sleeping Powder" 2017 The Gorillaz team is trying harder than most musicians out there and it's totally working.
Here's the Gorillaz episode of MTV Cribs for good measure.
10. Nick Hakim - "Roller Skates" 2017 This has also been added to the Roller Skating Music Videos YouTube playlist for obvious reasons.

Ten Music Videos With Special Effects Part VI
All 60 Music Videos With Special Effects are on a YouTube playlist ready to be YouTubeN'Chilled.
1. Nao - "Fool To Love" 2016 I first discovered now via "So Good" with A.K. Paul last year and I overplayed the shit out of that song too. Nao is doing it right. This latest instantly infectious track from the East London artist has helped me to work on my car dancing over the last few days. Thanks Nao!
2. Flying Lotus - "Phantasm" 2012 I just learned from FlyLo's impressive Wikipedia page that he is an ex Stones Throw intern which has always sounded like an amazing idea to me. My Brainfeeder shirt is one of my favorites because it actually fits AND because I truly appreciate the efforts Flying Lotus has put into his label.
Flying Lotus (feat. Laura Darlington) - Phantasm from The Bow on Vimeo.
Plus, how cool is this press photo.
3. Vivians (Mndsgn + Koreatown Oddity) - "The Shaw (In The 90's)" 2015 I'm a sucker for all the 90s nostalgia videos and this one is no exception. Watch "Flip And Rewind" by Rashida Jones for another example. Mndsgn of Vivians was affiliated with Stones Throw but is now on Akashik Records, I fux with them.
4. Mick Jenkins - "P's + Q's" 2015 This is reminiscent of the Spike Jonze video for "Drop" in the best way. I do prefer "Drop" over this track but the visuals could not be better. I was seeking out a "Making The Video" type thing but found this instead. Mick Jenkins has been killin it since before I first got hip around "The Roots" in 2013.
5. ABRA - "Fruit" 2015 I'm not a huge Awful Records fan but this is fire. I've been overplaying this song since I first discovered it...too late, just a few days ago. Fortunately, it's never too late for a new favorite song.
6. bryson, the alien - "2heavy" 2016 PORTLAND MUSIC There's so much good music in Portland, it's always worth a road trip. This was likely a pretty low-budget video (this is a rad thing) but the special effects take it to the next level. Here's his Twitter; follow him so you can see what he does next.
7. Aesop Rock - "Rings" 2016 Aesop Rock has had his game stepped up for decades. Click here to see how many YouTube videos it takes to launch an album Rhymesayers style (AKA the right way). This video is amazing and so are the efforts of Aesop Rock. You should probably buy his new album The Impossible Kid.
Here's a picture of me and him taken just after his recent show in Bellingham before I realized that I gave him poor service as a fill-in promoter rep because I was too nervous to be myself. My mom saw this photo and thought he must be my new tall and handsome boyfriend because I look so happy in this photo; I was very sad to disappoint her.
8. Massive Attack feat. Young Fathers - "Voodoo In My Blood" 2016 With all the SIFF heads in town, you'd think we'd have more videos from local artists like this. Hmmm....scheming. My sister Ingrid would say this is a "problem song."
9. Oshun feat. Proda - "Protect Your Self" 2016 Found these ladies via Team Backpack and have been watching out for them ever since. This video got them on NPR's radar, if they weren't already. Hope to see them in Seattle soon!
10. Ripley Snell feat. Grape God - "Timeless" 2013 (Prod. by Neill Von Tally) PORTLAND MUSIC Theses two are some of the most unique and interesting people I've ever met. I recently booked a show in Portland for Grape God and Ripley Snell as Wine + Coffee, DoNormaal, OCnotes (w/ Rik Rude + Astro King Phoenix), Raven Matthews, and Snugsworth at The Know. It was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Fortunately, these cats are time travelers so we'll be able to relive the evening.

Sadly not pictured below because I was too busy living in the moment for once are DoNormaal, Raven Matthews, Astro King Phoenix, and Snugsworth.
The first five lists of Special Effects videos can be reached via the links below.
Feb 7, 2013 This list is from when I was still too shy to use my voice but the songs are great!
May 22, 2013 Part 2 includes En Vogue's Sesame Street video "Adventure." Straight fire.
November 20, 2013 I had finally learned about HTML from my former ReignCity team and could finally use YouTube properly in Part 3.
August 27, 2014 My favorite self-quote from Part 4 is "I wonder if this is what it feels like to be Thom Yorke."
January 20, 2015 In which I use a Beavis & Butthead meme that says "Yes! Tool!" Part 5

Ten More Music Videos with Bicycles
Here's all the bicycle music videos I've found so far on a YouTube playlist. #YouTubeNchill
1. Flume and Chet Faker - "Drop The Game" 2013 *A few bicycle cameos in a video that is all about the dance moves.
2. Duke Westlake feat. VerBS - "Geyser" 2013 *This bicycle has a starring role in the video, with close-ups and everything; courtesy of Mello Music Group.
3. Latyrx feat. Forrest Day - "Exclamation Point" 2013 *I hereby resolve to stop overusing exclamation points.
4. Isaiah Rashad feat. SZA - "Ronnie Drake" 2013 *One of my favorite things about SZA is that she is not afraid of getting dirty. She's playing with a pile of leaves in this video and can be seen wading in a dirty pond after putting her white sweater in the dirt on Ten Music Videos featuring Reflections.
5. KMD - "Peachfuzz" 1990 *MF Doom's first crew has been down with bikes since 1990.
6. Rocky Rivera - "Ain't No Way" 2014 *This video also has skateboards, playgrounds, bubbles, and dogs.
7. Dag Savage feat. Blu - "Don't Stop" 2014 *Synchronized dance routine for the win.
8. Kwamie Liv - "Follow You" 2014 *It's a blink and miss it bicycle, at 0:45. She is from Copenhagen, Denmark and she is awesome.
9. Mick Jenkins - "Jazz" 2014 *He gives some great advice in the first line of this song. Mick Jenkins is opening up for Method Man and Redman (cue giddy squeals) at The Showbox on November 3. Bonus points for having balloons.
10. Fences feat. Macklemore + Ryan Lewis - "Arrows" 2014 (SEATTLE MUSIC) *This is a truly amazing music video. It has a double bicycle as well as a tiger, some Wes Anderson shit on a train, a bunch of taxidermied (not a real word) animals and a ladder.
*The first installment of Ten Music Videos with Bicycles can be found here. It has LL Cool J, DJ Shadow, En Vogue, J Dilla, Naughty By Nature and five more.
