As a wildly successful artist at such a young age, Caesar lived much of his 20s in self-indulgence. The only people who really ever told him no, who ever truly held him accountable, were his family members. Now, he uses this album to animate his thoughts on core concepts: his own purpose on this Earth, what he means in relation to his parents, and how the world will change when he eventually becomes a dad.“I have a lot of respect for my dad, and I hold him in high regard. The album is about me realizing that I am exactly like him,”he shares.“In that sense, it’s about having patience, respect, and admiration for myself.”
