Album Review: NEVER ENOUGH by Daniel Caesar

NEVER ENOUGH

Daniel Caesar

Republic Records

GRADE – A++

The Canadian R&B singer’s third album starts off slow and melancholy with “Ocho Rios” and builds continuously with each song. This is Caesar’s most intimate and personal album yet; the songs dive into themes like death, love, heartbreak and maturity. Two honorable mentions would be “Always” which leans into the R&B love songs, leaving the listener pondering on old lost loves. “Disillusioned (with serpentwithfeet)” talks about the fears of growing up but finding what you’re passionate about in life. This album is a portrait of our most guarded experiences as humans, tearing and pulling at your heartstrings with one song and soothing your soul with another. His angelic harmonies invite listeners to wander into Caesar’s minimalist and “Unstoppable” production skills. Daniel is currently on tour for this album and performed in Calgary on Oct. 3rd.
