    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.
