With the fast-paced rush of new music releases these days, it’s no wonder fans so often get impatient to hear from their faves, pushing them online to “drop the album.” However, as the saying goes, you can’t rush greatness — and rising UK rapper Central Cee clearly fully believes that old adage, slowly building his groundswell of support stateside over the past few years.

Now, he’s finally ready to drop his debut album, and as a testament to his commitment to the profits of patience, he’s dubbed the premiere project Can’t Rush Greatness. Set for release on January 24th via Columbia Records. The announcement was preceded by the release of the single “Moi” featuring Raye, the Lil Baby collaboration “Band4Band,” and “I Will.”

He also debuted his new single, “One By One,” on COLORS, the popular YouTube performance show that has been instrumental in the rises of superstars such as Billie Eilish, Jorja Smith, and Doja Cat. According to the press release, the song won’t appear on “One By One,” but acknowledges its ethos, even quoting the title in the lyrics: “Can’t rush greatness, you gotta take your time, maintain it slowly.”

Can’t Rush Greatness is due on 1/24 via Columbia Records. You can find more information here.

Central Cee Says “Gen Z Luv” Is The Wave On Newest Single

Central Cee put himself in an ugly love triangle as of late between rapper Ice Spice and his ex, Madeline Argy. However, it has since been dispelled that a relationship with the fellow musician is non-existent. His “Did It First” collaborator was asked about it in a Rolling Stone interview to which she replied, “We’ve been friends since ‘Munch’ came out, honestly… we’re just twins…”. While that is one less headache to worry about, it appears that he is still without a lover. Ultimately, it will be up to Argy if she wants to take him back after all of the confusion he involved her with. It might be why Central Cee is dropping “gen z luv” right now.

This is supposedly the second single for his rumored LP, CAN’T RUSH GREATNESS, with the first one being “BAND4BAND” with Lil Baby. On this record, Cee is wanting to tell his future how mommy and daddy met. It seems that he feels this generation’s way of finding that special someone is the best and only reliable method. “If it weren’t for the algorithm, I wouldn’t have found my woman“. All of these ideas are splayed out over a moody drill instrumental that sounds an interpolation of the sexy drill wave. Fans have been spinning it quite a bit, however we are pretty lukewarm on it. Still, check it out and see what you think.

“Gen Z Luv”- Central Cee

Quotable Lyrics:

When our children ask us how did we meet
I’m tellin’ them, “Gen Z love, FYP love, IG love”
Saw her on the Explore Page, like, I need to explore deeper
Suggested accounts said that we got mutuals
But you don’t f*** with them, me neither
When I’m with you, I get baby fever
