This week finds high-profile, big budget videos from Kendrick Lamar and A$AP Ferg, while Gunplay and Jarren Benton come through with simple yet effective videos. Click through to check out XXL's best music videos of the week.

Kendrick Lamar - "Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe"

Kendrick brings back the big budget video with a stylishly shot visual for his single "Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe." While the beautiful locations and hilarious cameo from Mike Epps make the video great, it's Kendrick's declaration of the death of molly rap that makes this one a real winner.

A$AP Ferg feat. French Montana, Trinidad Jame$, ScHoolboy Q & A$AP Rocky - "Work (Remix)"

Fergenstein channels his New York history with the video for his star-studded "Work (Remix)." With crazy camera movements, great sets, an aptly frantic pace and Coogi sweaters galore, Ferg does his hit single justice by bring the energy.

Gunplay - "Bible On the Dash"

Even though the video doesn't quite match the emotional intensity of Gunplay's rhymes on "Bible On the Dash," Gunplay's wild persona shines through the video's clean and simple visuals. Sometimes, that's all it takes to make a video effective.

360 feat. Jadakiss & Freddie Gibbs - "Own Thing (Remix)"

Even though the excessive shaky camera movements prove to be somewhat nauseating, 360's video offers enough canted angles and varying point-of-views to make it interesting. Still, it's the overarching storyline that makes "Own Thing (Remix)" great.

Jarren Benton - "Cadillacs & Chevys"

Eschewing intricate camera shots and fancy Final Cut lighting plug-ins, Jarren Benton allows the humor to take over in the video for his song "Cadillacs & Chevys." From the Jheri curl wigs to Benton's natural camera presence, "Cadillacs & Chevys" is a laugh-out-loud experience.

Demigodz - "Raiders Cap"

Sometimes simpler is better, and the Demigodz get that in their recent video from directorial collective Ricky Shabazz and the Boob-Bap Boys. With clean, precise visuals and a tempered editing pace, "Raiders Cap" aptly captures the Boston-based crew's trip out West.
