I agree that the videos aren't groundbreaking or amazing, but, being
a woman, particularly a black woman (see rap videos comment below),
it is just nice to see other videos with other visual content rather
than the usual mucho T&A in videos that are normally seen on mtv and
bet, particularly with rap and most pop/r'nb divas. I stopped
watching videos because of this. The !K7 DVD comment was more of a
recognition of diversity, rather than quality.
However, I appreciate your comments. I hope your cold passes.
