Daniel Caesar, Koffee
Recommended
Don't Miss
When Canadian crooner Daniel Caesar dropped his velvety, luscious, I-think-I’m-literally-pregnant-listening-to-this slow jam “Get You” in 2016, he seemed poised for a total takeover. Its B-side, “Japanese Denim,” is more understated, but equally sexy. His subsequent soulful R&B album, 2017’s Freudian, was a revelation, and Caesar’s duet with H.E.R., “Best Part,” was another baby-making masterpiece. But after getting thoroughly skewered by Black Twitter for defending “culture vulture” YesJulz and retweeting black conservative commentator Candace Owens, there’s a bit of a damper on this singer’s come-up. That said… “Get You” still gets me.
