Toronto’s Daniel Caesar is the gospel Thom Yorke, the alt-rock Curtis Mayfield, and in general one of the more promising and exciting artists in the city. After releasing a series of strong singles over the past year, he’s at last releasing a follow-up album to his great Pilgrim’s Paradise EP from 2015. It’s called Freudian and is out August 25.
To mark the occasion, Caesar has done that cool rap thing where you make one music video for two songs. However, the cohesiveness of “We Find Love” and “Blessed” makes the clip feel like a natural medley, which is pretty dope. The video itself deals with heartbreak through grainy, warm vintage film stock. You can watch it above.
