#TBT Throwback Thursday - 2 Chainz "Good Drank" ft. Gucci Mane & Quavo
Pictured on set at Escobar from left to right: Quavo, Howard HdotRoss Ross, 2 Chainz and Gucci Mane
“Good Drank” is a music video I directed for 2 Chainz featuring Quavo and Gucci Mane. The Mike Dean-produced track is on 2 Chainz 2016 mixtape Hibachi for Lunch.
Quavo and Director Howard Ross going over the next shot on set.
For this visual I took a vintage approach which mirrored the prohibition days. Everything from the vehicles to the wardrobe was from the era. The only difference is that instead of liquor, a purple “good drank” is being dropped off to a piano bar that the artist appear in. This “piano bar” location is actually Escobar, a Bar & Restaurant in Atlanta that is owned by 2 Chainz himself.
The video was released on Jan. 19, 2016. Check it out below and leave a comment.
VIDEO COVERAGE
Director Howard Ross filmed the video entirely in black and white. The only objects that escape the color restrictions are the light purple bottles of liquid that give the track its title.

Director Howard Ross filmed everything in scratchy black-and-white for the vid, and 2 Chainz, Gucci Mane, and Quavo definitely look the part
Directed by Howard Ross, the clip, which mirrors a flickering film reel, looks like it was made many moons ago.
Sidebar:I also Illustrated the cover art for Hibachi for Lunch.
The cover inspired the Merch that we released with the project. It was covered by Hypebeast.
