Update: Today (August 22), Daniel Caesar shared the cover art for Son of Spergy, which arrives October 24 via Republic Records.

Daniel Caesar is teasing new work.


Today, the Toronto R&B singer and songwriter shared a video on Instagram, with a caption that reads: “Son of Spergy. 2025 **.” The two-and-a-half-minute clip shared features a moving body of text overlayed on an open field. Its final sentence reads: “I am Spergy’s son, and in my spirit, I am God’s.”

Aside from the lone post, his Instagram has been completely wiped, with a new profile picture and bio that reads: “God is the greatest,” and directs fans to a website — sonofspergy.com. Additionally, he shared an image of the Kabbalistic tree of life (a central symbol in Kabbalah, a Jewish mystical tradition) to his Instagram story, with a link to the site. Caesar’s other social media channels remain untouched.

On the website is another video, featuring a clip of Caesar walking into a body of water with music playing in the background. The video is spliced with title cards that read: “WALK BY FAITH,” “NOT BY SIGHT,” and “HAVE A BABY (WITH ME),” — the latter of which listeners can hear a snippet of what sounds like a new song as the video abruptly ends.

If Sons of Spergy is a new album, it would come two years after Caesar’s 2023 record, Never Enough, which peaked at No. 8 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart.

Recently, Caesar was credited as a songwriter on Justin Bieber’s Swag track, “Devotion,” and performed an intimate Billboard Canada Live show at The Mod Club during NXNE, where he performed a new song called "Moon" as well as acoustic renditions of songs from throughout his catalogue.

For fans who sign up to Caesar’s newsletter, a confirmation message reads: “You’re on the mailing list. Well done. Stay ready, any minute now.”
