Timothée Chalamet Quashes Alter-Ego Rumors with EsDeeKid on ‘4 Raws’ Remix

Timothée Chalamet puts speculation to rest by collaborating with UK rapper EsDeeKid on a fresh remix, blending film star swag with Scouse grime vibes.

When Hollywood Meets the Liverpool Streets: The Collab Nobody Saw Coming

If you ever found yourself wondering whether Timothée Chalamet had been secretly moonlighting as the elusive UK rapper EsDeeKid, you're not alone. Fans went full detective mode, fueled by the mysterious Liverpool rapper’s balaclava-covered persona and his distinctive Scouse accent, which almost seemed too authentic to be fake. But guess what? The rumors have officially been laid to rest—by none other than Chalamet himself.

EsDeeKid, a rising star who burst onto the scene this summer with his album Rebel, has been a puzzle wrapped in a mystery. The artist has been cagey about his identity, always sporting a balaclava and keeping fans hooked on tracks like "LV Sandals," "Phantom," and "4 Raws." The latter just got a remix featuring none other than Chalamet, who jumped in to set the record straight and add his own lyrical flair.

From ‘Marty Supreme’ to Mic Drop: Chalamet’s UK Rap Debut

As the Marty Supreme press tour rolls on, Chalamet is showing he’s not just a master of ping-pong on-screen but can also flex some bars. Fans have been buzzing since the star teased that "all will be revealed in due time," and now we have proof. On the remix of EsDeeKid’s "4 Raws," Chalamet raps:

“Got model bitches in Peckham / I’m riding rentals in Wrexham.”

And if that wasn’t enough, he name-drops his famous girlfriend in the next line:

“It’s Timothée Chalamet chilling / Trying to stack 100 million / Girl got a billion.”

Talk about turning up the heat while blending real-life glam with streetwise rhymes!

A Star on Tour and a Shoutout to British Icons

Chalamet’s presence in the UK has been more than just musical. On his whirlwind press circuit for Marty Supreme, set for release on Boxing Day, he’s been making waves with British audiences. One particularly heartwarming moment was his shoutout to none other than Susan Boyle—a true British icon who Chalamet praised as someone “worthy of a Marty Supreme jacket.”

Working with clothing brand Nahmias, Chalamet has even designed merch inspired by the film, including jackets he’s sent out to celebrities he admires. Speaking to BBC News, he named Formula 1 legend Lewis Hamilton, fashion powerhouse Victoria Beckham and her husband David Beckham, and underground rapper Fakemink among his favorite British celebs, while emphasizing Boyle’s spirit:

“She dreamt big – she dreamt bigger than all of us.”

Boyle herself responded with touching gratitude, recalling her early days and how meaningful Chalamet’s praise was years later.

Marty Supreme: A Ping-Pong Flick That Breaks All the Rules

If you haven’t caught Marty Supreme yet, critics are raving. The film’s frenetic direction turns table tennis into an adrenaline-fueled spectacle rivaling Formula 1 races. Jordan Bassett described it as:

“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’s about to burst. Talk about a smash.”

For Chalamet, this project is more than just a role—it’s an ode to passion, daring, and authenticity.

EsDeeKid’s Rising Trajectory: Tours and Big Stages

Meanwhile, EsDeeKid is gearing up for a busy 2026, hitting the road with North American and Australian tours. The rapper is also slated to open for heavy-hitters like Deftones at London’s Outbreak Festival and share stages with IDLES, Amyl & The Sniffers, and JPEGMAFIA.

This remix with Chalamet not only quashes the alter-ego rumors but showcases the bridge between two creative worlds—film and grime—melding effortlessly in the UK cultural melting pot.

Wrapping It Up: From Rumors to Rap Royalty

So, there you have it—the mystery solved, the remix dropped, and two worlds collided in the coolest way possible. Timothée Chalamet might be Hollywood’s golden boy, but he’s also got a surprising knack for Scouse grime thanks to EsDeeKid’s infectious beats.
