Central Cee is the face of the Toronto meets London line.
Canadian rapper Drake is having a moment. After headlining Wireless Festival for three nights in London, he has dropped a clothing collaboration. October’s Very Own has teamed up with Chelsea FC to create a Toronto-meets-London line, OVO x Chelsea FC.
OVO x Chelsea FC includes branded tops, hoodies and accessories. The British rapper Central Cee is the face of the collection. The tagline for the collection reads: “Two cities. One heartbeat.” On Instagram, the caption reads: “Rooted in legacy. Charged by passion. A collaboration where culture moves with confidence, and street style meets sporting excellence.”
Drake is behind OVO, which began as a spin-off of his record label. The aim is to showcase the connection between his hometown in Canada and Chelsea FC in London. Plus, Central Cee himself is from Ladbroke Grove, London.
Born Aubrey Drake Graham, Drake gained momentum with his early mixtapes. It was the rapper’s debut studio album, Thank Me Later, that cemented his place in the mainstream. It included radio favourites like Find Your Love and Fancy.
Wireless Festival 2025 marked Drake’s first UK performance in six years. The last time he appeared at the festival was in 2018. He became the first artist to headline one festival for three consecutive nights. While he performed on each night, he played three different setlists.
Central Cee, real name Oakley Neil Caesar-Su, was born in London. At 17 years old, he headlined his first show at Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen, London. In 2020, he rose to fame with the songs Day in the Life and Loading. In 2021, his first mixtape, Wild West, debuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart. In 2025, he released his debut studio album, Can’t Rush Greatness.
