Central Cee has teamed up with RAYE for a fresh, UK garage-infused single titled ‘Moi’. Produced by Einer Bankz, Harry Beech, and Eight8, the track blends smooth rap with snippets of French, delivering a unique cross-channel vibe that sets it apart from the typical UK scene.
The song opens with RAYE's soulful vocals, as she sets the melancholic tone, singing: "Paris is the city of love, they say, but not for him and I." Both artists slip seamlessly between English and French, adding a touch of elegance and international flair to the already infectious beat.
The accompanying video, directed by Dan Prod, showcases Central Cee cruising through London and Paris in a fleet of rose gold supercars, perfectly complementing the track’s stylish and luxe atmosphere.
‘Moi’ arrives shortly after Central Cee dropped his surprise ‘Billion Streams Freestyle’ to celebrate reaching a major streaming milestone, and follows his Parisian collaboration on ‘Bolide Noir’ with rapper JRK 19.
RAYE took to Instagram to express her excitement about the track, revealing that she co-produced the song and gushing about her love for the French language. “Grateful to my friend @centralcee for having me,” she wrote, adding, "p.s. I hope you think my French is okay, I love the language and would like to try and sing more songs in French."
This collab adds to an impressive year for both artists. Central Cee recently took the stage with Peggy Gou, teamed up with Ice Spice, and made a surprise appearance at Nicki Minaj’s Manchester show. Meanwhile, RAYE has been everywhere—from collaborating with Laufey at Lollapalooza to joining Taylor Swift’s Eras tour as an opening act.
