Best of 2006: Top 5 Youtube Videos of 2006

The topic is self explanatory. I could go into how YouTube has changed the way we look at video, etc, etc, but Time magazine already covered that. But these are the videos that made me die laughing.

Best of 2006: R&B Artist of the Year

Run DMC - Christmas In Hollis

Just in time to get ya’ll in the mood for the season. I just had to drop this for y’all. This song is a CLASSIC!
