Today's clue is not gonna be helpful but I'll be totally honest I thought everyone would have figured it out by now and would look at this video and go "Mmhmm, mmhmm yep this totally matches with what we think it's gonna be."
Sorry sorry tomorrow will be easier I promise oh god somebody figure out the method to my madness

I’m just jealous ..I only made it to day 2 ! Your 5 x better so farI guess I overcompensated my fear of Abbey Roading this month and have made it impossible to figure out. I don't know if I should be gloating or if I should be apologetic.

Iwas gonna go with a Legend of Zelda Vinyl release but decided to go alon g with your Arthur Verocai clue and officially hit on this……
Fool by Jameszoo
The word ‘naive’ comes from the Latin ‘nativus’, meaning native, or natural. Today, to be naive is often seen as pejorative, a lack of experience or judgement, but in the art world the word retained some of its original meaning: a quality acquired through birth, a childlike innocence and won...

Just fuck with everyone until the day you feel comfortable dropping the reveal
What is a connection that all those videos have in common
I can't think of anything explicit
Also the video game clue confuses me
If mountain and game soundtrack I'd guess Celeste
The southern theme of luray kinda says Kentucky route zero
I know nothing about weeds or ladybug mecca
And jazz is kinda unsure but I maybe think of ape out being a free jazz video game.
None combine together though.. and for label I dunno if it's Mondo or iam8bit or ship to shore or just something on Fangamer or bandcamp

MCA territory infarct (Thanks the name of the picture)
Can obstruct blood cells and lead to strokes.. it would be either the frontal lobe, temporal lobe, or parietal lobe.
What does that contribute
Literally nothing.. I don't understand a lick of it

Bonus clue: it's not a video game soundtrack.
And to help further explain the obtuse video game hint, what I did was I took an ordinary SNES game (EarthBound) and replaced its soundtrack with (mostly) hip hop beats. Pharrell, Madlib, MF DOOM, etc.
As a specific example, here's a playthrough video from part of my game:
Go to 56:25 if the video doesn't start there and watch as our hero enters a police station... and Mystikal's "Shake Ya Ass" starts playing.
The artist for the AOTM appears in the rom hack like this. If you don't want to play through the entire game compiling a list of artists you recognize, you could always just watch the preview video in my original hint post if you have 20 minutes to kill.
Extra super bonus clue: Even though this rom hack features hip hop beats, I have never said the AOTM is rap or hip hop.

You're so close to having a "Eureka!" moment.
Guess an album! You'll be wrong, but I can add you to the list!
Video game remix album
Has to do with some part of the brain I don't understand
I am not a master at MRI

Unless I’m mistaken MCA was/is a record label? Perhaps that’s whats being got at?

Not a remix album either. The video game connection ends with my rom hack.
