True. Some of the best videos are from artists who are fairly unknown.
And though videos aren't played on regular TV, they still get the recognition. Critics review videos more often, you have Youtube which plays a part in selling a song when people go to watch. Not to mention online streaming of videos, online premieres, being able to buy on iTunes. To discredit videos just because they aren't on TV anymore is basically saying we don't need videos anymore.
Jay Z featurings are a big hit right now and Ciara could have used that!
It depends also because like you said, SAFE doesn't mean its a hit because Love Sex Magic had everything going for it: catchy hook, steamy video and JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE and that still flopped. . . . . . . Fantasy Ride was a cursed era though, a lot of things happened that shouldn't have!
@ hot videos making a song a sure fire hit these days
