Song

BAND4BAND (feat. Lil Baby)

Central Cee

Album BAND4BAND (Single)

“BAND4BAND” is the collaborative track from English rapper Central Cee and Atlanta rapper Lil Baby, which was released on the 22nd May 2024 through Columbia Records and CC4L

The UK drill track was originally previewed in late 2023 as a solo track from Central Cee, but was then released as a collaborative track with Lil Baby in May 2024.

The song sees both rappers mix their signature sounds of UK rap and Atlanta rap, all while flexing their wealth. The slang term “band” refers to $/£1000, with the phrase “band for band” meaning to compare and compete your own wealth with someone else’s. The line “M for M” in the song likely means “millions for millions”, with Central Cee alluding that going for “bands” is beneath him.

The music video was directed by Wowa and was filmed in London, showing Central Cee and Lil Baby cruising through London in many Lamborghini cars. There are also shots of the rappers private jets, watches, jewellery and cars.
