UK drill artiste Central Cee has announced his long-awaited debut album, Can’t Rush Greatness, set to release on January 24, 2025, through Columbia Records.
Central Cee, known for hits like Sprinter with Dave, Doja, and BAND4BAND, revealed that Can’t Rush Greatness has been recorded over the past year across various locations. While the tracklist is yet to be shared, the album will feature guest producers and a collaboration with Dave—though it’s unclear if Sprinter will be included or if they’ve created a new track together.
Fans can choose from two physical versions of the album, available on CD and cassette. There are also two bundle options: one includes both formats, while the other pairs a T-shirt with a physical copy of the album.
Just days ago, Central Cee performed his latest single, One By One, on COLORS. However, the song won’t be included on Can’t Rush Greatness. In One By One, Central Cee includes the lyric “You can’t rush greatness, you gotta take your time, maintain it slowly,” echoing the album’s title.
In other achievements, Sprinter—from his collaborative project Split Decision with Dave—was the most played song in the UK on Spotify in 2023 and took 28th place on NME’s list of the 50 best songs of 2023.
