Last night, Ambush was asked for a short interview at the Misfits Boxing 14 Event.
They asked him if he would ever fight in the ring & if yes, with who? He leaves his entourage & proceeds to go over to Antz & Antz’s entourage (alone for some reason)

According to Bouncer; Sony’s Columbia Records paid £550,000 for this mixtape.
Each album sale is valued at around £9.99 (usually) so this project has made £9,000 first week & will probably make no more than £25,000 in its lifetime (that’s being generous).
Robbery of the year.

I don’t have an exact figure but it’s ALLEGEDLY closer to the £25m mark.
Also, it’s 50/50 (I think only in some regions, so it may only be 50/50 split in the US).
This is an insane deal, that he deserves. My guy said to me “he’s bigger than the UK scene” & I couldn’t argue.
It is ‘rumoured’:
> Central Cee has recently signed a £20+ mill GLOBAL deal with Columbia Records (they’re under Sony)
> This deal allegedly includes publishing, for 2 projects only
