Overview

  • “Call On Me” arrives as the follow-up to July’s “Have a Baby (With Me)” in the rollout for Caesar’s fourth album, Son of Spergy.
  • The song blends his R&B foundation with grungier alternative-rock touches, featuring distorted guitar over a reggae-tinged rhythm.
  • Lyrically, it depicts a one-sided, transactional dynamic, with Caesar offering support even as he anticipates being left alone.
  • Credits list Daniel Caesar, Jordan Evans, Matthew Burnett and Rami Dawod as co-producers and co-writers, with Isaac Sterling also credited as a co-writer.
  • Son of Spergy is slated for October 24 via Hollace Inc./Republic Records, with digital, 2LP vinyl and CD formats available for pre-order at sonofspergy.com.
