(June 19, 2025) – Just months after shaking up the global rap landscape with his critically acclaimed debut album Can’t Rush Greatness, Central Cee returns with a bold new sound and a surprise collaboration that’s bound to set the summer alight. “Guilt Trippin” featuring rap star Sexyy Red drops June 19 and marks Central Cee’s first official release since the album’s January drop. Fans will remember Sexyy Red came out at Cench’s 02 Arena show, sparking the initial excitement that the two had a collaboration on the way.

The perfect blend of rap and afro-swing influences, with amapiano accents, “Guilt Trippin”, produced by Harley Arsenault and Alex Lustig and co-produced by WONDRA030, is packed with infectious energy; a high-tempo, rhythm-heavy single that blends Cench’s signature UK sound with Sexyy’s US bravado. It’s a genre-bending summer smash, built for late nights, yacht parties, and global dancefloors alike.

“I’ve been around the world, what i’ve realised is, you’re the one that i want – there’s no place like home.”

Accompanying the release is a lavish, sun-soaked music video, filmed in London and Miami. The visual sees Cench and Sexyy Red performing together on a luxury yacht, rapping and dancing, flanked by dancers and waves of money, bringing the fantasy to life with opulent visuals and undeniable chemistry. It’s a celebration of freedom, indulgence, and global superstardom.

With her unapologetic bars, viral charisma, and anthems that dominate both charts and timelines, Sexyy Red has become one of the most exciting and unpredictable forces in rap today. Hailing from St. Louis, she broke out with the raw and infectious “Pound Town,” and hasn’t looked back since, delivering hits like “SkeeYee” while redefining what it means to be a woman in hip-hop. Known for her bold visuals, off-the-cuff humor, and fearless authenticity, Sexyy Red blends street energy with viral finesse. She’s a lightning rod for culture, equally at home on stage, online, and now, on a yacht next to Central Cee. On “Guilt Trippin,” she brings her signature confidence, trading bars with Cee in a moment that feels equal parts party and power play.

The single arrives amid an incredible run for Central Cee. After a major cultural moment at the 2025 Met Gala – where he turned heads in a custom suit by Jacquemus and became one of the night’s most talked-about guests due to his viral Met Gala Freestyle – Cee has been busy dominating stages across the world. His Can’t Rush Greatness World Tour is currently sold out across all dates, with Cee now performing to packed stadiums in Australia, on the final leg.

Since its release, Can’t Rush Greatness has cemented Central Cee’s place as a global force, racking 1.5 billion world-wide streams and earning acclaim for its balance of lyrical depth and chart-ready polish. “Guilt Trippin” is his first musical statement since then, and it boldly signals that Cench isn’t content to rest on past success – he’s ready to expand into new territory and keep pushing boundaries.

Central Cee has redefined the global perception of UK rap, breaking barriers and setting unprecedented milestones. His ability to seamlessly blend raw storytelling with universal appeal has resonated across continents, bridging linguistic and cultural divides. With Can’t Rush Greatness, he reaffirmed his position as one of the most vital voices in contemporary rap, delivering an album that is both deeply personal and globally resonant. Now, with Guilt Trippin, Central Cee taps into a playful, party-starting mode we haven’t seen from him before – and with Sexyy Red by his side, it’s a transatlantic link-up fans won’t forget.
