After fans became convinced that the rising UK rapper EsDeeKid<\/a> was actually Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet<\/a>, the two have put rumours to bed with a new collab.<\/p>\n Little is known about Liverpool rapper EsDeeKid, given he remains anonymous and has\u00a0 only ever been seen sporting a balaclava. Since dropping his album \u2018Rebel\u2019 this summer, fans have been clamouring to work out the musician\u2019s identity, with many recently sharing theories that he was actually Chalamet<\/a>.<\/p>\n The rising UK artist raps with a distinctive Scouse accent and takes influence from the UK grime<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0drill<\/a> scenes, and is best recognised for tracks \u2018LV Sandals\u2019, \u2018Phantom\u2019 and \u20184 Raws\u2019.<\/p>\n Putting the speculation about EsDeeKid\u2019s identity to bed after Chalamet promised that \u201call will be revealed in due time\u201d<\/a>, the Marty Supreme<\/em><\/a> star has jumped on an unexpected remix of the latter track. In a clip shared to social media, Chalamet raps: \u201cGot model bitches in Peckham \/ I\u2019m riding rentals in Wrexham<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n Seemingly referencing girlfriend Kylie Jenner, he goes on to rap: \u201cIt\u2019s Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet chilling\/ Trying to stack 100 million \/Girl got a billion<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n pic.twitter.com\/c6c5pSzGgR<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet (@RealChalamet) December 19, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n It\u2019s the latest move on the Marty Supreme<\/em> press tour that has seen Chalamet make waves with UK audiences, ahead of the Boxing Day release of his ping-pong epic. Another notable moment was his shoutout to Susan Boyle<\/a>, who he named as a British figure worthy of a Marty Supreme<\/em> jacket.<\/p>\n The star has also partnered with clothing brand Nahmias to design merch inspired by the film, including a branded jacket that he has sent to celebrities he considers to be \u201cgreat\u201d (via Pause<\/em><\/a>).<\/p>\n While speaking to BBC News<\/em><\/a>,\u00a0Chalamet named Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton,\u00a0Victoria<\/a> and David Beckham, and underground rapper Fakemink as his favourite British celebrities. He then name-checked Boyle, saying: \u201cShe dreamt big \u2013 she dreamt bigger than all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n The singer then responded, saying<\/a>: \u201cThose early days were quite something, and to know that moment meant something to you all these years on truly humbles me.\u201d<\/p>\n Marty Supreme <\/a><\/em>has earned a glowing five-star review from NME. \u201c<\/em>The direction is so frenetic that it somehow makes table tennis even more thrilling than the rubber-burning race scenes in F1, while there are at least three jaw-dropping set-pieces that Safdie lands on you like gleefully delivered trick shots,\u201d wrote Jordan Bassett.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is a story about living a great life, however you may define that. It is a film about living fully and without fear, a cynicism-free zone where, for all their fast-talking, people love each other so much it makes your heart feel like it\u2019s about to burst. Talk about a smash.\u201d<\/p>\n As for EsDeeKid, the rapper will be heading out on a North American and Australian tour<\/a>, and he will also be joining\u00a0IDLES<\/a>,\u00a0Amyl & The Sniffers<\/a>,\u00a0JPEGMAFIA<\/a>, and more in\u00a0opening for Deftones at London\u2019s Outbreak Fest 2026.<\/a><\/p>\n The post Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet quashes alter-ego rumours by joining forces with EsDeeKid on new \u20184 Raws\u2019 remix<\/a> appeared first on NME<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After fans became convinced that the rising UK rapper EsDeeKid was actually Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet, the two have put rumours to bed with a new collab.
