Welcome to AIR-A’s first inaugural Top 100 Music Videos of 2025, a guide for connoisseurs of visual art, judged by aesthetic quality, music pairing, stylistic flair, and impactful presence.
This annual tradition, returning each January, outlines the pathways where sound and style unite in splendid glory because the best deserves to be celebrated.
At AIR-A, we deeply respect tradition while embracing innovation. The year 2025 has ushered in a remarkable era for music videos, transforming them into one of the most intricate art forms of our time.
Music videos have been overlooked for far too long, and it's time to start paying attention.
