CENTRAL CEE MANAGER BELLO FETED
9/28/23

Central Cee manager Bello will be awarded Manager of the Year at the upcoming Artist & Manager Awards in London.

The honor comes after a huge year for Central Cee, who became the first British rapper to achieve 1b Spotify streams in a year. He smashed U.K. chart records with “Sprinter” (Neighbourhood/Live Yours), his #1 collaboration with Dave, alongside festival appearances at Glastonbury and Reading and Leeds.

Bello has been working with him since 2019, when the duo started laying down the foundations of Central Cee’s career with a succession of track releases and mixtapes, including 2022’s U.K. #1, 23. The duo built an independent team before signing a joint venture agreement this year with Columbia, in partnership with Sony Music U.K.

Other winners include Debbie ‘Cookie’ Pryce and Susan Banfield of rap duo The Cookie Crew. They will be honored with the Pioneer Award for their influence on U.K. hip-hop in the ‘80s.

Samuel Ademosu and Ruth Gyaniao of The Flight Club management will receive the gong for Producer/Songwriter Manager. Their clients have contributed to tracks for Burna Boy, Dave, Jorja Smith, Stormzy, Doja Cat, Gorillaz and Headie One.

The ceremony will take place in London on 11/23. Previously announced winners include Duran Duran and their longtime manager, Wendy Laister, for the Artist-Manager Partnership award.
