Drake kicks off Day 3 of Wireless Festival with new Central Cee collaboration

Drake started off day 3 of the Wireless Festival with the unveiling of a new collaboration with Central Cee, set to drop on Friday. At a Toronto concert in April 2025, Drake teased that Central Cee would be a part of the upcoming OVO Fest. The three-night Wireless Festival performance by Drake was a memorable one.

During the Wireless Festival in London, Drake’s headline performance became an opportunity to bring out various guests to perform with him. On day 3, he previewed a snippet of a new track featuring Central Cee, much to the excitement of the crowd.

Drizzy informed the audience that the much-anticipated collaboration would hit all streaming platforms on Friday.

Social media buzzed with excitement following the snippet’s debut, sparking discussions on whether the new track would find a place on Drake’s upcoming album, ICEMAN. This collaboration follows Drake’s recent drop, “What Did I Miss,” which he introduced during day 2 of the Wireless Festival.

With an album scheduled for release in 2025, Drake assured fans of the project’s arrival this year while interacting with Adin Ross on a live stream. However, the specific release date for the album remains unknown. He and PARTYNEXTDOOR are gearing up for a joint tour later this summer in support of their successful collaborative album, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, featuring hits like “Nokia” and “Gimme A Hug.”
