First up is Nas with a new video for his first single, Hip Hop Is Dead. Instead of the usual flashy cars and booty shaking videos that pervade BET, Nas’ video has a black panther type feel. I dig the video…it’s certainly not a club banger, but a good indication that his album (as usual) is going to be about good music rather than flash in the pan catchy singles.

Beyonce has a totally pointless video for her song, Listen, off the Dreamgirls soundtrack. Do we really need to see another video of just Beyonce singing to the camera the entire time? As much as I’m a fan of her musically, she consistently fails to deliver an original or inspiring video.

Fantasia returns to the music scene with her video, Hood Boy, featuring Big Boi from Outkast. The song is semi-catchy and the video has an interesting look. She has a lot of eye candy in the video, but other than that there’s nothing to hold your attention.
