what genre is daniel caesar

Daniel Caesar is a Canadian R&B singer. His music is influenced by soul and gospel, and he draws from his childhood experiences and integrates them with R&B and electronics, while his lyrics reflect deep, reflective tracks about sex, love, money, spirituality, and longing. Caesars gospel-infused, genre-defying blend of soul, rock, pop, and jazz is a result of growing up in a religious household that did not support secular music. He is known for his incredible vocals and songwriting skills, which have earned him a Grammy Award. When asked about the genre of his music, Caesar simplifies it by saying that he makes R&B music, but he also adds that he senses a lack of innovation in the space.
