As the industry holds its breath in anticipation of the next star, Irish hip-hop newcomer Celine is determined to establish herself as a leading female rapper. Since her debut release ‘Somebody Else’ in 2022, Celine has been shaking up the internet one release at a time. Her latest offering ‘Her Trap Boyfriend’ embraces old-school R&B energy, straying from drill while remaining respectful to her rap roots. Joined by Young Iz, a rising star on the brink of a meteoric ascent, the single invites listeners to delve into the complexities of love and relationships, promising an auditory experience that is both immersive and unforgettable.
‘Her Trapper Boyfriend’ is a sonic rollercoaster that navigates the highs and lows of modern romance with unparalleled honesty and authenticity. From the allure of a bad boy’s charm to the vulnerability of a good girl’s heart, Celine and Young Iz leave no stone unturned as they unravel the complexities of love. This boundary-pushing single delves deep into the intricate dynamics of love, offering a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the tumultuous world of relationships.
Young Iz, reflecting on the creative process, shared, “The creative process for me was about embodying the storyline. I zoned in, allowing the beat to guide my pen, crafting lyrics that echoed the emotional depths of each character’s perspective.”
Hailing from the musical enclave of Kildare, Young Iz has carved a niche for himself with his razor-sharp lyricism and infectious beats. From viral hits like ‘Outside’ to the TikTok sensation ‘Irish Girl,’ his ability to captivate audiences knows no bounds. Teaming up with industry heavyweights like A92 rapper Ksav, Young Iz continues to push the boundaries of musical expression.
Celine, the enigmatic songstress with a story to tell, brings her own brand of magic to the table. With roots tracing back to a Rap Youth Workshop in Cork, her journey has been one of resilience and determination. From the grandeur of the Opera House to the intimate confines of the studio, Celine’s passion for music knows no bounds. Her debut single, ‘Somebody Else,’ captured hearts and minds in 2022, but breakthrough track ‘Ick’ solidified her as a rapper with an ear for an absurdist one-liner and a ruthless perfectionist streak.
