Chow Lee: The vibes are on full display with a sunny, chill drive in the 'settings!' music video

Normally I would slide this flex over to the VIDEOS section but there’s something about the way rap artist Chow Lee turns up to the point I have to highlight here with the ‘settings!’ music video. The audio is fire but a cinematic glow? Oh yes.

Chow Lee delivers with the ‘settings!’ music video

It’s a full-fledged cinematic glow and I’m here for this visual from start to finish. Buckle up and embrace the journey.

Never failing to entertain with his X-rated lyrics and out-of-pocket visuals, Chow Lee is one of the sexy drill scene’s greatest stars. Continuing to ride the high of his recent album Sex Drive, the Long Island native shares the video for “settings!,” a standout track from the project. Gliding over a euphoric instrumental by producer PoWr Trav, Chow continues his quest to find a baddie who’s on his level, swapping out girls in different locations until he can find the right match: “If you can't match my nasty, might gotta switch you out / But trust I'm a gentleman with it / And I love all my feminist women (Yup) / But it's time to get nasty.” In the “settings!” video, Chow takes his girl on a scenic drive in a red convertible from the Sex Drive album cover, driving until they find the perfect spot where they chill as day turns to night.

“settings!” is a highlight track from Chow Lee’s critically acclaimed project Sex Drive. Praised by outlets like Pitchfork, Billboard, The FADER, XXL, and more, the album affirms Chow’s position as leader of the sexy drill scene. Highlight tracks include the ethereal and bothered “cinderbella!,” the cinematic and tone-setting opening track "advance w her" (produced by Cash Cobain), and the Caribbean-inflected "tequila Vacay!" ft. Roy Woods. Sex Drive is also home to Chow's recent series of viral singles, including "swag it!," which earned a remix featuring Flo Milli, and "ms. Beautiful v," which generated millions of streams, went viral on TikTok (20k creations),and placed on the Top 25: New York City chart on Apple Music, along with Cash Cobain-produced singles "act bad twin" ft. Bay Swag & Cash Cobain and the Allen Iverson-referencing "practice!" With additional features from Anycia, AJ Tracey, Sleepy Hallow, and more, Sex Drive is available on all platforms now via EMPIRE.
