CENTRAL CEE – BOOGA

West London rapper Central Cee closes out 2025 with “BOOGA”, a stripped-back drill track produced by Roddy Beats, Arthur Bean, Young Chencs and Smokey Jam. The track samples “Too Fast” by R&B trio Sonder and finds Cench rapping over a gritty beat with no hook, no fluff—just razor-sharp bars about street credibility, ambition, and loyalty.

The Don.Prod-directed video features cameos from Skepta and FinesseKid, underscoring Cench’s position at the heart of the British rap scene. In the track, he references French rapper Booba, Somali culture and cuisine, and draws parallels to Slumdog Millionaire while discussing supply and demand.

“BOOGA” arrives after a colossal year for Central Cee. His debut album “Can’t Rush Greatness” dropped in January, entering at number one in the UK and number nine on the Billboard 200—making it the first UK rap album to break the US Top Ten. The project earned nearly 20 million Spotify streams on day one and has since surpassed 1 billion global streams.

With 24 million monthly listeners on Spotify and over 8.6 billion total streams, Central Cee continues to set the tone for UK rap’s global reach.
