Having established herself as one of the country's most thrilling rising stars with a string of audacious singles, we knew Celaviedmai would rise to the occasion of The Y&E Series with her trademark artistic flair.

Proving that a streamed gig doesn't have to forsake the energy of a live show,  the Galway rapper embraced her inner actress – presenting her journey from snoozing on the couch and topping up her make-up, to a stunningly polished performance, complete with special effects and a mix curated just for the occasion.

Celaviedmai treated fans to tracks spanning her discography, with highlights including irresistible opener 'For Me', her epic 2019 single 'Confessions', and her latest high-energy release, 'Reckless'.

With a performance that embraced the bold spirit of The Y&E Series, Celaviedmai has provided irrefutable evidence that the Irish hip-hop scene has never been more vibrant.
