Central Cee is back with a future hit for all you lovebirds out there.
As adept as he is at whipping up a mosh-pit with viral hits and singalong anthems—often with a timely sample underpinning it all—recent months have seen Cench concern himself more with matters of the heart. Back in December, the rapper sampled Passenger’s 2012 track, “Let Her Go”, to tell a story of love and betrayal on “Let Go”, and today Cench returns with another emotive number in “Me & You”.
Co-produced by EY and Razor, the new guitar-led single is built around another well-chosen sample, Donnell Jones’ 2000-released hit “Shorty (Got Her Eyes On Me)”, and in many ways, it’s sort of a counterbalance to the last track, offering love and devotion to that special someone in his life.
Interestingly, “Let Go” and “Me & You” have been grouped together on Spotify and there’s certainly connective tissue between the two. There’s an outside chance we could be building towards a new project at some point in the year, or we could just be wildly speculating. Either way, one thing we do know for certain is that “Me & You” will be getting an official video and that’s due to land on Valentine’s Day, so look out for that.
In the meantime, get into the new track below and be sure to add it to your loved-up playlists.
