Well fine sir in my opinion this song is more beauitful and has more love than all the videos you listed. It's even approved by mothers everywhere!

If you think I'm trying to make a point then you're mistaken. I'm bored and argueing passes the time. If you try and say you're above something like that well too bad because you're already doing it. If you try to say I'm an idiot then I can say you were tricked by an idiot. I go to free mmorpg section now *flys away on floating piece of bubble gum*

Okay. Where the fuck is Do For Love? How can you put "beautiful" in the title without Do For Love?!
http://youtube.com/watch?v=yre5nBXAxyk
Do For Love is one of the few songs that even qualifies as a feel good. Most other songs are bang-bang-shoot-em-up, or sex-based.
Also:
BT~N~H - The Crossroads

you love rock butt i think rap is better because a rapper can say alot more in a song than a rocker so they have to be alot smarter to full a song with alot of good words.
you understand what i mean?

Don't hate on rap. Hate on the rap that's on the radio minus a select few.

Here in my opinion is still the greatest rap song ever made.
Even if it was a huge commercial hit, the lyrics still hold true.
Tupac Shakur - Dear Mama
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Lk0rqfNId0I
Also, for those debating over rap and rock. Just shut up. Rock requires musical ability and rap requires musical ability. It's merely personal preference on which you want to listen to.

its a shame since rap wasnt made to shout bout sex tat came along quite recently
rapping is meant to be there to spread the message of wats wrong wit the world
one song tat talks bout it is

It holds true. Unless Billy/ Blaire's mother decides to rape Billy/ Blaire, or sell Billy/ Blaire into prostitution to feed a growing cocaine addiction. Then, this song doesn't apply as well as it should.

How about...
We need some positive vibes for these rainy days
Let the sun come out keep pushin' these clouds away
We need some positive vibes life’s for fun so go and play
Let the sunlight in, brighten up your day
Let the vibes blow like the ocean breeze
Mamma always told me there’d be days like these
Keep your head right, just do as you please
Never interfere with an evil man’s schemes
Keep your heart pure, conceive your own dreams
Respect your fellow man, the earth with the trees
The air that we breathe and the highest mountain peak
Bring truth from your soul to your mouth when you speak
No need to get loud .. messin with others, stressin’ your brother, it’s time to uncover
Time to choose another path you see
Cause the road most traveled’s negativity
Put your fist down (fist down), throw your hands in the air
Respect yourself, be somebody who cares
Don’t let life get you down, don’t feel abused
Keep a positive view unto yourself be true
[Chorus]
Everyday’s a new adventure You got to keep what you got
Livin’ life in a studio bustin’ rhymes in my socks
I got to keep my head up and always do what I feel
Avoidin all the evil and just keeping it real
(I need some positive vibes)
All these situations I keep hearin’ about
People dyin’ in planes and buildings crumbling down
This world goes round for no apparent reason
People robbin and theavin’ just to feel good for the evening
(I need some positive vibes)
What happen' to everybody’s peace and love
Throw your drinks the sky, raise your hands up above
Get yo hand out of the gutter and be respectful
We need some positive vibes for these rainy days so let it go
Don’t never get it twisted when I’m on this track
D-Loc the kind kid that be kickin’ it back
Of the class everyday I was high
Goin to school in 95 easy that how we ride
[chorus]
It’s time to leave this rat race track down Babylon
Keep my head straight, keep my family movin' on
Find my own
Kottonmouth Kings---Positive Vibes.

I prefer to look more at rap that sounds like:
이력서 by Dynamic Duo (No I don't Speak Korean, but half of it is in English)
실례합니다 by Dynamic Duo
Thugs Mansion (N.Y.) - the one with Nas as the main.
Excellent by Blackalicious
Deception by Blackalicious
Blazing Arrow by Blackalicious
Old School by Dangerdoom and Talib Kweli
Get By by Talib Kweli
Definition by Black Star
Whats Golden by Jurassic 5
Every single Run DMC song :P
Ms. Fat Booty by Mos Def
Mathematics by Mos Def
Etc.
Then again, I'm not a big fan of rap, I don't really like the rap that screams about "bitches and whores"
You get the point, I'm a jazz boy.

So by beautiful I assume you mean: Anything outside of the typical agressive, anti-establishment, "slap yo momma, and do yo sista" mind-set?
And if my assumptions are correct... then you should try looking up Indie Hip-Hop.
