Video: Chow Lee – “practice!”
The Sexy Drill Icon Continues His Slizzy Sexy Summer With a New Cash Cobain-Produced Single
Critical Praise:
“..the members of Paper Route Empire reach a level of sincerity and emotional reflection that’s still hard to come by.” – Pitchfork
“Choosing some of the more interesting production to rhyme over, Jay Fizzle’s frankness and the flows he has on tap keep him in the convo as the whole city takes off.” – XXL Mag
“10 Rappers You Should Know Right Now” – DJ Booth
“The tape serves as both a testament to Memphis’ current rap preeminence and Fizzle’s own dexterity. He saves perhaps the hardest for last on the tape, attacking a looped vocal sample and towering percussion with ferocity.” – DJ Booth
“Jay Fizzle is a master of the searing street rap that serves as the bass-booming heart of Memphis music.” – The Hype Magazine
The Video:
Pioneering NYC’s ascendant sexy drill movement, Chow Lee is never ashamed to share his most out-of-pocket thoughts in his music. Today, he shares “practice!,” his latest sexy summer anthem. Over mischievous high hats and sultry keys courtesy of Cash Cobain, Chow doubles down on his commitment to the life of a rich bachelor, rapping about spending his money on women, sex, and nightlife. He calls out the amateurs on the single, responding to sly inquiries from lovers about his side chicks and the content of his music by noting that they’re “talking practice” and one-upping that with “I’m not talking practice.” In the video, Chow holds a press conference, posing as a player on the ‘69ers, to put the “practice” allegations to rest and prove he doesn’t need any warm-ups to be the hottest in town.
“practice!” continues a red-hot 2024 for Chow Lee. The single follows recent singles “act bad twin!” “swag it” (Remix) ft. Flo Milli and “s.n.a.” Released alongside the single “porno story!,” the Cash Cobain-produced “Ms. Beautiful V” has become a staple in New York City, racking up over 6 million combined streams and views across platforms, on top of 18.9k creates on TikTok, and reaching the Top 25: New York City chart on Apple Music. Last summer, Chow released his super sexy album Hours After The Club, an addictive listen, radiating with the seductive charm that inspired Pitchfork to affectionately call Chow Lee the “horniest rapper out.” Hours After The Club is chock full of infectious melodies, as Chow’s natural bravado makes every X-rated flex feel natural. Chow followed-up Hours with singles like “team effort!” and “ready 2 live.” Earlier this year, Chow performed on the main stage at Rolling Loud California, and he will continue his run of Rolling Louds this weekend at Rolling Loud Europe.
Stay tuned for much more from Chow as he continues to establish himself as the most eligible bachelor in the rap game.

The Background:
Chow Lee is on a mission to become the next King of New York. He made major moves in the city’s rap scene with 2 SLIZZY 2 SEXY, his 2022 collaborative project with Cash Cobain. Praised by Pitchfork and Rolling Stone, and earning “Best of 2022” distinction from UPROXX, The FADER, and more, 2 SLIZZY 2 SEXY combined the sample-heavy sound of the Bronx with the hard-hitting dance beats from New Jersey to change the face of the NYC drill scene. 2 SLIZZY 2 SEXY highlight “Vacant” was recently named the 73rd Best East Coast Rap Song of All Time by Rolling Stone. Chow recently reconnected with Cash on the sexy drill anthem “Rump,” plus the Nelly-sampling “Not No Xanax 2” from Cash’s new album, and joined Wolfacejoeyy and Cash on the Pitchfork-approved “Weekend,” and released the fiery Hours After The Club anthem in July 2023.
Now, with buzzing singles like “swag it!” and “Ms. Beautiful V,” the Long Island native is primed to take his sexy drill sound mainstream. Stay tuned for more.
