, ,

Another day, another Top List voting has ended. The viewers have made their picks for the Top 10 Independent Music Videos of the Year!

HOW WE DEFINE AN ‘INDEPENDENT’ ARTIST

We defined an ‘Independent’ artist solely on the fact that they are either signed to their own label, or they are unsigned artists. Some of these artists created their own music videos, many artists did not. All of these artists are amazing professional musicians who continue to strive and push their brands to the next level every single day.

9- CELESTIAL – Lifestyle Baby

The talented freestyler, Celestial, shows off his rapping skills in this imaginative video. The video borders on creepy, and almost sent shivers down my spine! But that’s what’s creative about this video, it stands out like Russel Peters at a Star Wars Convention. Like a page out of a Stephen King novel, this video is both creative and freaky. It will be interesting to see what else Celestial cooks up in his mind.

5- BLAZIN ANNEX, GREEN COAST – HWMC

HWMC is a collaboration between a Hip Hop group in the United States, and another Hip Hop group in South Asia. The video was a collaboration across the seas from the beginning to the end. Two production companies, two recording studios, two Hip Hop groups, two of everything, half of which was in New York, the other half in Bangladesh. And that sort of globalization deserves some respect!
