Earlier in the day, Cee went incognito at an Auckland café, where he stepped out with a black bucket hat pulled down over his head.
He posted a short clip with a location tag to his Instagram Stories, as he leaned down to pat the dog of an unsuspecting customer who paid him no mind.
Cee took to the stage wearing a Pounamu, also known as New Zealand jade or greenstone, in a small gesture of appreciation to Māori customs (Tikanga).
The rapper, real name Oakley Neil Caesar-Su, will make his grand entrance on Australian soil on Sunday at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre.
He will then travel to Sydney for another one-night-only concert at Quodos Bank Arena on Wednesday June 25, followed by Melbourne on June 28, before wrapping up in Perth on July 2.

However, pandemonium filled the streets as a throng of fans lined up from 4am around the block hoping to see him in the flesh.
