Get a Sneak Peek at the BAPE® x SPOTIFY x SYNA by Central Cee Capsule Collection

November 18, 2025

Earlier this year, we announced the BAPE® x SPOTIFY x SYNA by Central Cee (aka Cench) capsule collection, a collaboration that blends sound, style, and street culture. With the release just around the corner, we’re giving fans a closer look at what’s coming, including a sneak peek at some highlight pieces. 

Dropping worldwide November 25, the collection will be available at select BAPE STORE® locations and online via BAPE® and SYNA. Each piece remixes BAPE®’s signature streetwear with Central Cee’s creative direction and weaves inspo from individual songs into the collection’s DNA. Labels and care tags feature a link to an exclusive Spotify playlist curated by Central Cee himself.

“I’m lucky to have creative friends and my manager who all give me input with these things,” said Central Cee. “With their help, I felt confident I could creatively direct this three-way collab between BAPE®, SPOTIFY, and SYNA. I’m looking forward to seeing people out in the world wearing the pieces.”

Spotify Unites BAPE® and Central Cee to Bring Fans an Exclusive BAPE® x SYNA World Capsule Collection

September 23, 2025

Music and streetwear have always spoken the same language, and Spotify is turning up the volume. Together with A BATHING APE® (BAPE®), Central Cee (aka Cench), and his SYNA World label, we’re dropping a collaboration that blends sound, style, and street culture.

Central Cee serves as creative director for the BAPE® x SYNA World capsule collection, launching November 25. He brings his vision and SYNA World’s spirit of creativity, self-expression, and community to the collaboration, with every fit, fabric, and graphic thoughtfully designed for lasting impact.

Central Cee’s creative control extends across the campaign, from designing the collection to directing and producing the launch film. His artistic identity is front and center, amplified by the global reach and cultural influence of both BAPE® and Spotify.

Rewarding superfans at every turn

True to Spotify’s mission, fans are at the heart of this collaboration, and Spotify will provide the official soundtrack for the collection and campaign.

On September 24, Central Cee’s biggest fans in London will get exclusive in-store access to the first item from the collection, a special BAPE® x SYNA World tee, at the BAPE STORE® in London.

Spotify and BAPE® first teamed up in October 2024 with a debut collection featuring fresh takes on BAPE®’s legendary Shark Hoodie and College Tee—each streetwear icons for more than 20 years.

With Spotify at the center, this new collaboration with Central Cee promises more than just a collection, it’s a new way for artists and fans to connect through music, fashion, and community.
