1. Isaiah Rashad - "Soliloquy" 2014 *My favorite Isaiah Rashad song is "Ronnie Drake," this one's aight too.
2. The Foreign Exchange feat. Eric Roberson and Shana Tucker - "Better" 2014 *Foreign Exchange are coming to The Crocodile on July 22, so that will be fucking awesome.
3. Oliver the 2nd, Trenttruce, and Jeremiah Jae - "Red Roses" 2014 *I don't really care what this song is about cuz it's all beat nasty face.
4. Erik Hassle feat. Tinashe - "Innocence Lost" 2014 *Here's hoping that Tinashe will continue to work with artists who aren't ridiculous.
5. Depeche Mode - "It's No Good" 1997 *There is another version of this video on Ten Music Videos featuring Taxis.
6. Fly Moon Royalty - "DNA" 2014 (SEATTLE MUSIC) *Fly Moon Royalty are making all the right moves. They released their Unfinished Business EP earlier this year and had an amazing Album Release Party at Neumos.
7. The Neighbourhood - "Lurk" 2014 *The video is kinda painful, but, the song is so great you end up watching it anyway.
8. Schoolboy Q feat. BJ The Chicago Kid - "Studio" 2014 *This is a Beats Music product placement video, slow jam style.

Ten Music Videos featuring Record Stores
1. Yancey Boys feat. Frank Nitt (Produced By J Dilla) - "The Throwaway" 2012 *We sell this cheese at my work called Yancey's Fancy and no one I work with gets it.
This song is made with unreleased J Dilla (James Yancey) beats.
2. Verb T - "Where You Find Me" 2012 (UK HIP HOP) *I love this beat; the bass is great and it has soul. I really don't know how to talk about beats, I just know if I like it.
3. New Order - "Temptation" 1982 *I'm pretty sure this is not the original video because the clothes and the cars look too modern. Of course, New Order is great.
4. J Rocc - "Stay Fresh" 2011 *Mayer Hawthorne filmed this while he, J Rocc, and Peanut Butter Wolf were on tour in Japan (or so the YouTube credit says).
5. Lootpack (Madlib) - "Crate Diggin'" 1999 *Oh man, I love this.
6. Jin - "Top 5 Dead Or Alive" 2005 *This is the only Jin song that I really like. It is hard to pick a top 5 emcees because it is hard to know how to judge. Is it personal preference, content of lyrics, or skill level? I always like Mos Def, Method Man, and Q-Tip. The rest of my top 5 is always changing by what I am overplaying at the time.
7. Primal Scream - "It's Alright, It's OK" 2013 *This is what a new Primal Scream song should sound like (as messed up as that sounds). I always loved their "Movin' On Up" song from 1991.
8. The Roots - "Silent Treatment" 1995 *Another solid Roots track.
9. The Foreign Exchange - "I Wanna Know" 2009 *This song by Phonte and Nicolay is way more R and B than I expected. It's aight.
10. Erykah Badu - "Honey" 2008 *This video has the best use of a record store.
This song is made with unreleased J Dilla (James Yancey) beats.
2. Verb T - "Where You Find Me" 2012 (UK HIP HOP) *I love this beat; the bass is great and it has soul. I really don't know how to talk about beats, I just know if I like it.
