Daniel Caesar is a month removed from the impending release of his fourth studio album, Son Of Spergy, and took the opportunity to share its latest single, “Moon” featuring Bon Iver.
“Moon” is a wistful ballad about the angst he felt growing up under the strict parenting of the album’s namesake. “Hit dogs will holler, I’ll howl at the moon / I’m not who I wanna be at the moment / Maybe soon,” he croons. “Someday I will leave your home / Be a man, I’ll make my ownAnd I’ll set this wood on fire, you can’t stop mе / There I will rest my bonеs.”
The album, which Caesar has been working on since 2024, also features the single “Have A Baby (With Me),” and collaborators 656yf4t, Blood Orange, Sampha, Yebba, and his Caesar’s own father, Norwill Simmonds. Caesar has also been working with Blood Orange and Rex Orange County, in addition to working with Tyler, The Creator on Chromakopia.
