English rap star Central Cee will bring his CAN’T RUSH GREATNESS tour to Manila on March 16, 2026, with a one-night show at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City. Live Nation Philippines announced the concert on December 19.
The tour supports CAN’T RUSH GREATNESS, his debut album released in January, which marked a clear turning point in Central Cee’s career in terms of guest features, such as 21 Savage, Dave, and Skepta, to name a few. After breaking through with his inclusion in the XXL Freshman Class of 2023, he moved beyond the role of feature favorite and into a more fully formed solo presence. The album combines the UK drill rap foundation while weaving in touches of R&B and Brazilian baile funk in tracks like “CRG,” “Gata,” and “Limitless.”
Central Cee first caught wider attention with “Day in the Life” in 2020, a raw snapshot of London street rap that introduced his clipped delivery and direct storytelling. He followed that momentum with tracks like “Loading” and the mixtape Wild West in 2021, which helped cement his place in the UK mainstream. More recent hits such as “Sprinter” and “Band4Band” pushed his reach further, pairing catchy hooks with a confident, unforced swagger that translates easily across the world.
Tickets for Central Cee’s CAN’T RUSH GREATNESS Manila show go on sale January 7 through the Live Nation Philippines website starting at 2,750 for general admission tickets.
