Headliner buzz by headliner

There is this real bad buzz in the headliner above the passenger side sun visor. It gets worse if you turn the music on, and if I have my bass going, it turns into a loud plastic on plastic slapping noise. Videos attached.

yes. With the music going. So, it's not wind related...

Most likely the visor assembly needs to be replaced.  Unfortunately, you are in good company:

If you have a sunroof try finger pressure on the rails... I had this loose and it was hard to localize.

I tried putting pressure on the rails. No difference. The rattle is coming from above where the visor sits, so would that be part of the visor assembly?

Where was this exactly? I have this exact same noise that is intermittent and it is driving me nuts at times! I recently located another annoying rattle which ended up being the plastic cap behind the interior door handle. It was slightly popped out and I simply pressed it in, 6 months of annoying rattling gone!

It occurs intermittently... pressure on the passenger side of the rail near the front will quiet it... fairly gentle pressure applied to the metal rail... Not willing to take my headliner down to try permanent fix though.

I had a similar issue that was a quick fix. pin point the rattling best you can by having your bass up and push up on the headliner to see if it stops the noise . mine was by the HSH (holy sh** handle) of the passenger side. I used a hard thick sponge and cut up small squares put some double sided tape on one end and put it between the roof and the headliner Via the sunroof opening . Pull the headliner down a bit and put your hand in there, if you have any capable little ones around it helps so you don't have to pull your headliner down to far try that for a quick fix if that doesn't work, not sure

I had this too. Dealer fixed it within the timeframe of an oil change. It hasn't returned.

For me the rattle was the headliner between the sunroof and windshield. Where the glasses pocket is.

dealer finally fixed it when they fix the sunroof leak. They took the whole headliner down and reseated it using new adhesive retainers. Seems to have fixed the problem.
