Kanye West may be hyping himself as the Michael Jordan of the rap world, but we've got some news for you, Yeezy — you might not even be the MJ of songs with "Paranoid" in the title. With yesterday's viral release of West's official (not leaked) version of his "Paranoid" music video and the Jonas Brothers' new hit single of the same name, we decided to take a look back at some other artists who were feeling the nervous vibe long before Kanye and the JoBros. Yes, Radiohead, Garbage and Black Sabbath did the paranoia-themed vid first. But who did it best? Let's take a look:

Kanye West - "Paranoid"
We have to admit, when the first version of the video leaked, we weren't that impressed. But the final cut finds Kanye in his true form, delivering a high-concept music video that feels more like a piece of art than anything else, and the black-and-white clip even guest-stars Rihanna as a disturbed vixen in the midst of a nightmare. In the song, Kanye advises his lady to quit worrying about "the wrong things," but there's nothing wrong with this clip. Kudos to Kanye for the old-school film noir vibe — we're digging it.

Jonas Brothers - "Paranoid"
This video follows the JoBros video formula we've come to know and love: There's the inevitable performance setup, Nick gets the girl, and all three boys get to show off their acting skills. In the clip, Joe inexplicably wanders into a wrestling ring, Kevin freaks out when he's thrown into a room full of his clones (wouldn't anyone?) and Nick finds himself in a car chase in the desert with a hot blonde. Wait — the whole thing was just a dream ... or was it? We give props for cool special-effects but, come on guys, the dream sequence bit is a little played out.

Black Sabbath - "Paranoid"
With its 1970s psychedelic feel, this vid is a classic. The song is one of the most iconic, kick-ass rock jams of all time and, let's face it: Black Sabbath's version is totally the original "Paranoid." Plus, it's pretty damn cool to see former frontman Ozzy Osbourne rocking out in his prime. We give it an A for the groovy colors and the Sabbath's awesome delivery of this metal masterpiece.

Radiohead - "Paranoid Android"
We're not sure where to start with this one. The video is all kinds of confusing and totally tripped us out. Based on a famous Swedish cartoon, the animated clip features cartoonized versions of Thom Yorke and the boys and a story line we couldn't quite keep up with. The main characters of the clip set out on a journey where they get flashed by a random lady and have an even more random encounter with the president of France (we think). What? Who cares? The song is awesome.

Garbage - "I Think I'm Paranoid"
This song was one of the band's biggest successes and the video sure doesn't disappoint. The black-and-white clip fits the song perfectly and mainly features frontwoman Shirley Manson unleashing her anger to the camera as her bandmates do their own thing. There's lots of yelling, cool effects and a shot of Manson eating her own fist. What more could you ask for?

Winner: OK, OK Kanye — maybe you are that good. We won't go so far as to say the song trumps any of the classics on the list but, as for the video, we'll give you this one for style and originality — and for the gratuitous Rihanna eye-candy. Thank you and you're welcome.

What do you guys think? Is Kanye's video the best of the bunch? Sound off below!

There's a lot going on in the world that doesn't necessarily get addressed in our Newsroom blog. Here's a look at some top stories making headlines today.

T.I. channeled the pain and turmoil of his life into the Grammy-nominated Paper Trail — but is that enough to net him the Best Rap Album award come Sunday? Plus: T.I., Jay-Z, Kanye West and Lil Wayne will "Swagga" together onstage for the first time during the ceremony.

We look at how Radiohead took on — and forever changed — the music industry with their Grammy-nominated album In Rainbows.

Zac Efron's "17 Again" co-star Melora Hardin called the teen star "dreamy" and said she didn't think he'd mind dating an older woman.

Dawn Richard tells us how her own love of comic art led to the creation of Danity Kane, the group and the comic series.

How many of you guys are going to the surprise Radiohead show tonight!? Oh wait, never mind. It was canceled earlier this week, just in time for you not to hear about it.

On Tuesday, Radiohead was set to announce tonight's secret show at the Chicago Theater, but Thom Yorke apparently got sick and the gig was axed. The band decided instead to save its energy for Friday's headlining slot at Lollapalooza.

The Thursday show, which was being organized by the band itself and not Lollapalooza promoters C3 Presents, would have been the official launch of Radiohead's North American tour with all the show's proceeds going to charity.

Sucks for die-hard Radiohead fans who can't wait an extra day, but I'm sure their set will kick ass on Friday.

Stay tuned this weekend as MTV News gives you complete coverage of this year's Lollapalooza, with news and interviews from all your favorite bands. And if you're going to the show, help us cover it by uploading your photos and stories to YouRHere.

We at MTV News are pretty excited about the nominees for the 2008 Mercury Prize — and not just because the award recognizes some of the best albums to come out of the U.K. and Ireland. It's also because we've been on a lot of these artists for ages (that's the sound of us patting ourselves on the back!).

When James Montgomery isn't channeling Matt Pinfield on "FNMTV," one of the artists on his beat is Radiohead: He's covered just about everything surrounding the release of the Mercury-nominated In Rainbows. From the album's pay-what-you-want digital release to the innovative video for "House of Cards," he's been there. He has even found time to cover their eco-friendly water bottles.

Earlier this year, we highlighted Estelle as one of our "Alternatives in '08." The West London R&B songstress is nominated for her album Shine. She made some noise with her single "American Boy," featuring Kanye West, and appears on the cover of this month's Fader. She also spoke to us about the "Move Your Lips" campaign, which raises AIDS awareness around the world.

John Norris also found the time to sit down with the Last Shadow Puppets — the side project of Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner and the Rascals' Miles Kane is nominated for The Age of the Understatement LP. Turner's Monkeys are pretty much nominated every year (2006 Mercury Prize winner for Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not and last year's runner-up with Favourite Worst Nightmare), so I'm sure John just had a hunch.

Here's a complete list of the nominees:

Adele - 19
British Sea Power - Do You Like Rock Music?
Burial - Untrue
Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid
Estelle - Shine
Last Shadow Puppets - The Age of the Understatement
Laura Marling - Alas I Cannot Swim
Neon Neon - Stainless Style
Robert Plant and Alison Krauss - Raising Sand
Portico Quartet - Knee-Deep in the North Sea
Radiohead - In Rainbows
Rachel Unthank & the Winterset - The Bairns

Higher prices at the pump mean less spending money -- so is that going to keep you from seeing your favorite act onstage this summer?

But Saturday night? I'm going to have to choose between watching Kanye West land his egogalactic mother ship in his hometown on the shores of Lake Michigan and walking a mile across Grant Park to see Nine Inch Nails unleash a toxic bile spill on the other main stage. That ain't right. Sure, I've seen NIN a few times and I haven't seen the Kanye show yet (the local date here got canceled due to, um, "production" issues), but both promise to be spectacles on a par with last year's totally bananas Daft Punk set.

And Sunday's not much better: The reunited Rage Against the Machine are up against one of my favorite bands (another Chicago-bred act), Wilco. Unless you're a music geek like me, that's not really a hard one, since the bands are different sides of the rock coin. But still, who doesn't want a bit of sweaty-torso bro-thrash mixed with a palate-cleansing bowl of spidery guitar noodle soup? It's just not fair.

Other than those colossal musical Sophie's Choices (oh, and putting the Black Lips on one of the main stages at noon on Friday — c'mon, that's just mean), I'm cool with the rest of the roster choices.

But I can't help wondering how Iron and Wine leader Sam Beam's pastoral acoustic reveries will go over on the Bud Light stage at 4:15 p.m. on Sunday, just a few hours before the NIN crowd begins to descend on the area like a drunken black cloud of hormones and terrorist fist jabs. Considering this recent bottling of Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme, I'd suggest you bring a helmet, Sam.

Are you feeling conflicted? Tearing your hair out choosing between Booka Shade and DeVotchKa? Tell us about it.
