I quite like simple/low-budget music videos (assuming the song is dope) and I've caught a few good ones over the last week or so:
Lupe Fiasco - Dumb It Down
Best/bravest lyrical performance I've heard on a lead hip-hop single for a while...will go over a few heads, though.
Peedi Peedi - Fall Back
Been looking forward to a solo album from this guy for a while after dope features on the last Beanie Sigel, Roots and Jazzy Jeff albums. This is sooo much better than "Oochie Wally" and the video clip's well directed.
Jay-Z - Blue Magic (Trailer)
You know you've made it when you can get peeps to make promo videos for your promo videos. Sick DJ Babu beat here, hope it makes the album. Like the underground, street-level feel Jay's gone for, both with the beat and the video, but it'll probably be back to grown-and-sexy for the "Blue Magic" video, as Hype Williams is directing it.
