In this documentary we take a deep dive into the life and legacy of Daniel Caesar, the Golden Child of R&B! From his humble beginnings growing up in Oshawa and being homeless when deciding to make it as a successful musician to becoming a "seemingly" overnight success with his album freudian then losing a large chunk of his fanbase after being canceled for defending YesJulz. We'll touch on all of this, more and how he managed to come out of the fire as a respectable musician with a bright future!
I really gave this project all I had and think its one of my best so far! Let me know your thoughts down below in the comments. I'll see you guys again soon.

He is the prime example of surround yourself with people who have your best interest at heart. My friends wouldâve checked me at the table đ
-
His "cancellation" was successful because Daniel offended his core listeners, black women at the time. Daniel really undermines how important it is for an artist to have that core, loyal audience. Black fans are really important to a black artist career, as they are first supporters to these black artists. I think Brent faiyaz benefitted from his downfall, as he skyrocketed in fame with his album Fuck The World.
-
His downfall was lack of understanding his core audience and not understanding their culture. This is what Kendrick Lamar was pointing out in his song They Not Like Us
-
He asked people to cancel him and they did. Words are powerful
-
Daniel was always undoubtedly talented he was just a lil too arrogant and a lil too ignorant.
-
Self hate is one hell of a drug. If he truly loved himself he would surround himself with better people who actually genuinely have his best interest at heart.
-
If he didnât get humbled, he wouldâve said worse. IMO, he wasnât sorry about what he said, heâs sorry it hurt his career.
-
Daniel: Cancel me Core fanbase: He think we playin
-
Very nice video. Very high quality. Now, regarding Daniel CaesarâŠ.my grandmother always used to say, âNever let a man tell you no more than onceâ. He said, he didnât need black people and we wished him well.
-
I mean he wouldnât be cancelled if his fan base wasnât majority of the people he offended. If others supported him just as much he would still be where he was or even bigger by now. No one has ever cared about black women on a global scale enough to stop supporting anything that may harm them so they wonât not listen to his music because he said something about them, he seems cancelled because that was majority of his fan base.
-
Daniel Ceaser is a prime example of benefiting from black american culture but actually doesnât gaf about black americans. Heâs from Canada with Caribbean parents. He meant what he said and the fact that he rushed to defend YesJulz (who is also Caribbean) should tell you everything you need to know. Heâs a tether. He said he stand on that, we donât have to listen to his music and that was it. So therefore, you get what you asked for
-
Iâm white as Casper from NY, blessed to have grown up with amazing diversity and being humbled and educated. Never in my fucking life have I heard someone around me say, âTake tips from the winning side.â That left me SPEECHLESS
-
Imagine saying you don't need the support of your core audience and that being the end of your career!
-
Everyone feels its ok to $hit on black women, we hold the purse string in the black community and I think we have a right to not support people who disrespect and degrade us. Daniel is very talented, I am sure his other fans have been supporting him, right.
-
Apology or not, words have power, and i will never look at him the same. I have so much amazing music in my rotation, Daniel Caesar is not missed.
-
Comparing Daniel Caesar to Malcolm X is wildđđ
-
Mans said cancel me and we said âbetâ
-
Daniel is one of the few celebrities Iâve seen that genuinely got cancelled. Itâs hard for me to have much sympathy since he literally asked for it. Freudian is still a fantastic album and Iâll always appreciate it, but I donât think I can look at Daniel the same.
-
His cancellation was successful bc heâs not conventionally attractive. Chris Brown still has packed concerts after being abusive to multiple women and just an overall supervillain. These celebs say wild stuff regularly and itâs soon forgotten. People genuinely do not care about antiBlackness or misogynior. People care about âuglyâ people having opinions they donât like.
