Central Cee’s album Can’t Rush Greatness is set for a strong debut, with projections estimating 37,000 units sold in its first week. The UK rapper’s latest release is expected to land in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 alongside albums from Bad Bunny, SZA, and Kendrick Lamar.
According to Hits Daily Double, 10,000 of the total sales came from physical and digital purchases, while the majority of the remaining units were driven by streaming. The final rankings on the Billboard 200 will be revealed on Sunday, February 2.
Despite speculation, Can’t Rush Greatness does not include a feature from Drake. In a recent interview with Dutch radio station FunX, Central Cee confirmed that he has an unreleased collaboration with Drake but chose not to include it on this project. “Everybody expected a Drake record on there, so I like the fact that there wasn’t,” he explained.
While Drake was absent from the tracklist, Central Cee enlisted major names such as Lil Baby, 21 Savage, Lil Durk, Skepta, and Dave. The album has already received praise as one of the standout rap releases of 2025 and is expected to make a strong impact on the Billboard charts.
