Top 5 Songs

5. Gen Z Luv

I have not heard a more genuine love song in a long time than this one.

when our children ask us how did we meet

I am telling them Gen Z luv

“Gen Z Luv” stands out due to its romantic and endearing music before the lyrics take over. This song perfectly captures the experience of attempting to get to know someone in the social media era. Central Cee discusses sliding into direct messages, mutuals, and hearting posts, stalking. In order to fit the theme of this song. Similarly, Central uses incredibly complex wording that pours out his heart, and it works.

4. Now We’re Strangers

Also, I really can’t get enough of a good breakup song.

Furthermore, This song’s vulnerability is amazing. Talking powerfully about his previous relationship. He still thinks well of his ex-partner and talks a lot about the good memories he had with her. He confronts the audience head-on, owns up to his mistakes, and acknowledges his mistakes. This song gives you the impression that you are witnessing someone grow and learn from their past. We really are, after all.

3. Dave (“CRG”)

In addition, Central Cee and Dave reunite on “CRG”, a somber reflection on past sacrifices. Dave tackles the “suffering from success” theme with wit, referencing his isolated luxury life. Central Cee nods to their previous collaboration “UK Rap”. Their chemistry is undeniable, suggesting many more future collaborations between these two UK rap heavyweights.

2. GBP (Feat. 21 Savage)

Going on, Central Cee is presenting facts, facts, and more facts once more. In this song, he is direct, shady, and honest. Throughout the verses, 21 Savage blends in perfectly, and I had to play back a couple bars to gauge the damage because they were so powerful. British Pound Sterling, or GBP, is the ideal moniker for this song. The main factors are money and opportunities, and Central Cee is not playing either of those

1. Limitless

Central didn’t swear a single time in this song.

To be honest, this song made me feel something. Many people can identify with Central Cee’s discussion of issues like government assistance, growing up in a single-parent home, and financial difficulties. Central’s struggles to reach his current position are highlighted in this empowering song. The strong message is reinforced by the piano and vocals, which perfectly match the lyrics.

In conclusion, Honourable mentions: Band4band ft Lil Baby, Gata ft Young Miko
