“I feel like it’s good to stay around people like that,” he defined, saying that being surrounded by main earners pushes him to raise. “I stay around people like that…[but] I can’t lie, obviously around Drake I feel like a little fish.” The interviewer adopted up by asking whether or not Central Cee believed he may ever catch as much as The Boy financially. His reply was direct. “He’s gone,” he stated, including that when folks attain Drake’s stage of wealth, they typically “own hospitals” and are concerned in so many ventures that it turns into not possible for anybody behind them to match it.

Still, the hole in wealth hasn’t stopped the 2 artists from working collectively. This summer time, they teamed up for “Which One,” a collaboration that grew to become a significant achievement for Central Cee. The report earned him his first-ever No. 1 on each the Rap Airplay and Rhythmic Airplay charts, marking a brand new second of world visibility for the London rapper.

Central Cee has saved the momentum going. He lately headlined Rolling Loud’s debut competition in India, performing in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai and shutting down the opening night time. At the identical time, Rolling Loud co-founder Tariq Cherif revealed on a livestream with Adin Ross and DJ Akademiks simply how a lot they need Drake to carry out. “I send an offer to Drake every year,” he stated. “We send him our max offer, millions of dollars.” Despite that, Drake has by no means taken the stage at a Rolling Loud occasion.
