British rap phenomenon Central Cee has officially kicked off the final leg of his mammoth three month world tour Down Under. 

Kicking things off in Auckland on Friday night, the tracksuit-clad star had thousands of attendees shaking off their winter blues and belting out every word to his TikTok viral lyrics.

Fresh off the back of his highly anticipated debut album Can’t Rush Greatness, the London-born hitmaker is concluding his most ambitious run of arena shows yet.

After scoring a cracking #91 spot in the Hottest 100 of 2024 with his undeniable banger ‘BAND4BAND’ alongside Lil Baby, there is no doubt these shows are going to be nothing short of insane.

‘New Zealand what the hell,’ the rapper captioned a fan-made video of the crowds at Spark Arena creating a sea of phone lights to ‘Now We’re Strangers.’

Earlier in the day, Cee went incognito at an Auckland café, where he stepped out with a black bucket hat pulled down over his head. 

He posted a short clip with a location tag to his Instagram Stories, as he leaned down to pat the dog of an unsuspecting customer who paid him no mind. 

Cee took to the stage wearing a Pounamu, also known as New Zealand jade or greenstone, in a small gesture of appreciation to Māori customs (Tikanga). 

The rapper, real name Oakley Neil Caesar-Su, will make his grand entrance on Australian soil on Sunday at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. 

He will then travel to Sydney for another one-night-only concert at Quodos Bank Arena on Wednesday June 25, followed by Melbourne on June 28, before wrapping up in Perth on July 2. 

The 25-year-old caused chaos and confusion in the Harbour City during his last visit in January, when a surprise visit to Oxford Street saw thousands of fans swarm the area.

The London-born artist visited the suburb of Paddington to promote his streetwear clothing label Syna World.

However, pandemonium filled the streets as a throng of fans lined up from 4am around the block hoping to see him in the flesh.

In the afternoon, they were finally rewarded when Cee arrived in his limo and was escorted into a store by his security team.

Cee looked to be in good spirits as he waved to his adoring fans, who were heard loudly chanting his name and fighting to catch sight of the adored rapper.

Fortunately, Cee was thrilled to oblige and looked every inch the rap star in stylish branded streetwear as he posed for photos and entertained the crowd.

The rapper had the roaring crowd in the palm of his hands as many forked out hundreds of dollars to purchase one of his streetwear hoodies and jackets.

His brief appearance thrilled his legion of supporters and left them screaming for more.

Cee waved to them goodbye as he was driven away by his entourage. 

He rose to fame in 2021 with his hit single Obsessed With You and in 2023 he scored his first number one in Australia with his song Sprinter. 

His unique hip hop style has seen him work with a host of other popular artists, including Australian rapper The Kid Laroi and South Korean star Jungkook.
