I judge wisely, as if nothing ever surprised me.

With the Wu gracing the cover of their upcoming issue, URB has taken upon themselves the daunting task of picking the Clan’s 20 greatest videos of all-time. Plenty of classic vids from the Clan as a whole — “C.R.E.A.M.”, “Triumph”, “Protect Ya Neck” — and from solo LPs as well — ODB’s “Got Your Money”, Meth’s “Bring The Pain”.

I can’t argue much with this list — the only dispute I have is why it couldn’t have been expanded to at least 25. If it could’ve been, here’s the 5 I would’ve added, in no particular order (though I probably would move “Gravel Pit” down a few notches to make room for these):

GZA/Genius – “Shadowboxin'” featuring Method Man / “4th Chamber” featuring Ghostface, Killah Priest & RZA

Always dug the whole military/warfare vibe of this video. Plus, it’s only so often that you get a Killah Priest sighting.

GZA/Genius – “Cold World” featuring Inspectah Deck

Great video for a great song. It’s too bad Deck couldn’t get a solo album out in the mid ’90s.

Ghostface – “Camay” featuring Raekwon & Cappadonna

Classiest-looking video girls ever. Cappa’s a bit of a “close talker”.

Ghostface – “Apollo Kids” featuring Raekwon

What I wouldn’t give for every pair of Wallabee’s in this video… and that WCW Championship belt, too.

Raekwon – “100 Rounds”

I love the ridiculousness of Rae as a boxing trainer. Floyd Mayweather and Zab Judah all up in this video. Though it didn’t get much positive press, Immobilarity had some joints on it.
