In a (to be honest, impressively sly) bid to keep the crossover success going, Central Cee dropped by the L.A. Leakers on Tuesday (September 7) for a freestyle that was packed with slang definitions that will surely be helpful for his many new fans.
Central Cee jumps onto the beat by acknowledging his recent elevation as a U.K. rapper to watch ("They think I'm the one to bridge the gap") and celebrating his trip to Los Angeles.
Then, he dives into spelling out his jargon for listeners across the pond. For example: "You say 'The feds just done a sweep,' we say 'The bwoy dem run in my gaff.'" (side note: former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson recently took part with police in an early morning drug raid and was filmed by the highly amused occupant of the raided apartment.)
