After the success of his debut album Freudian, Daniel Caesar is back releasing his new solo single "Who Hurt You?" The single penned by Daniel Caesar, complimented with additional vocals from T-Pain was released last week. Caesar rolled out the single with the posting of acraigslist ad, in search of a female companion for the night (which has since been flagged and removed).
Caesar has experienced a great year with having two of his songs reach #1 on Billboard's Adult R&B Songs chart. His 'Get You' featuring Kali Uchis peaked 1 week at #1 earlier this year, and 'Best Part' featuring H.E.R. currently holding on to the #1 position for the 2nd consecutive week.

2x Grammy-nominated R&B star Daniel Caeser shares the music video for his latest single, “Best Part” featuring fellow emerging R&B singer H.E.R.
A gorgeous beachside affair, the captivating split-screen clip depicts each respective vocalist walking along the water. The sun glistens off the sand as the voices entwine despite the distance. Dreamy acoustic guitar resounds as Caeser’s voice carries off into the horizon and H.E.R. simply hypnotizes as she maintains her signature mystery throughout the clip. It’s a cinematic exposition worthy of the song’s luscious and lovelorn emotionality.
“Best Part” stands out as the latest favorite from the artist’s Grammy nominated full-length epic, Freudian. Another phenomenon, it’s already racked up over 66 million Spotify streams and counting.
Last night, the duo joined forces for the first late night performance of the track on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!
After recently completing his sold out Freudian World Tour, Caeser descends on Coachella this weekend and next.
Caeser quietly built a platform to reach the top of R&B and soul in 2018. He’s performed everywhere from The Late Late Show with James Corden to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert alongside Chance the Rapper, no less, and Late Night with Seth Meyers. Notably, he even attracted the highest endorsement possible, with “Get You” appearing on President Barack Obama’s “Year-End Best Songs list” alongside another Caeser favorite “First World Problems.”
