Pitchfork reports Timothée Chalamet jumped on a remix with UK rapper EsDeeKid, feeding a long-running internet theory by leaning into rap rather than ignoring the chatter.
The verse quickly became a meme engine, mixing celebrity relationship talk, UK rap mystique, and film-promo timing into one shareable moment.
The crossover also revived the question of how far pop culture stories now travel when they touch both music fandom and Hollywood celebrity.
People highlighted the standout line: “my girl got a billion,” tying it to Chalamet’s billionaire girlfriend Kylie Jenner. The Guardian framed the cameo as a rumor-killer, saying Chalamet “ended rumors” by appearing with EsDeeKid on a remix.
Echotitbits take:
This is modern celebrity PR: turn speculation into rollout and control the narrative. Watch for streaming impact, more cross-genre cameos, and whether EsDeeKid’s mystery brand gains chart momentum.
