videos.techreads.com— They're listed alphabetically. Click all artists to view them all, and then hold control + F if you want to search. I've been using it at school for a while, thought I'd share the wealth :D

If you find any that have people playing the guitar or something to a song, report it as broken. I'll go pick through them and find a better quality when there is a good list of reported ones.
no 2pac? no eric b and rakim? you may digg me down for searching for rap, but this isnt your mainstream crap, i am looking for hip-hops best lyricists..a futile attempt at cataloging these videos, as a majority of them will all be taken down soon enough for obvious reasons.
Try to make a parser that searches the YouTube for the video artist-name and returns only the links instead. Then people may vote for the best version of the video and then weigh the result order by the number of "this is the best one" ratings (kind of "I'm feeling lucky" search in Google).This way you will create a self updating site that is based on community ratings. Much better in the long run than one site with 90% of dead links and the rest pointing to crap content.

Most of the ones I visited had been deleted. Fighting an uphill battle trying to make a YouTube music video database IMO

Is there a list for Stage6? The video quality there puts YouTube's to shame. Stage6 is the only site I would bother bookmarking a video list for.
