Watch: Central Cee answers questions on love, social media & being a Gemini

Answering fan’s questions via an AI therapist, the west London rapper opens up on family, love and the meaning of life

“I hate this sort of stuff, you know,” grumbles infamous British rapper, and now Dazed cover star, Central Cee as he settles into a chaise lounge in the therapy consultation room. But, as questions from fans are presented via an AI-powered luminescent speaker across the room, the international artist begins to reveals never-before-seen parts of himself.

“What would be your mental downfall?” asks the artificial consultant in one telling exchange. Cee arches an eyebrow before slowly breaking into a cheeky grin. “Maybe gyal,” he chuckles, before adding “God forbid anything, I can’t have a mental downfall – it wouldn’t be music though.” The Newton’s Cradle and digital clock tick onwards as Cee dives deeper and deeper into his psyche, speaking on fears of not being accepted during childhood, of learning his own love language, and of the hardships that continue to drive him forward. Oh, and looking for a girl that will cook him breakfast and pack his bags.

Watch the full therapy consultation, which culminates in Cee revealing his own take on the meaning of life, in the video above.
