Music Review: 21 Savage’s Newly Dropped Album American Dream

Never Enough Album 

Get You vocalist, Daniel Caesar, dropped his fourth album for his listeners  on April 7th, 2023. Consisting of “Always”, “Superpowers”, and “Do You Like Me” as his top three most popular  in that release. The album is a great representation of his mix of love and heartbreak songs, mixed with drums and guitar he fills all his discography with. 

U.S and World Tour 

Initially, touring in Asia, from South Korea to Japan, then from the United States to Canada, Caesar performed in all locations, besides Washington D.C due to a medical condition. Posts on social media, especially TikTok, started quickly roaming the world, and made any viewer wish they were there alongside the crowd. 

Featured Artists

On his latest release, he features artists like Ty Dolla $ign in his song “Homiesexual”, “Buyers Remorse” with Omar Apollo, “Disillusioned” with serpentwithfeet, and “Toronto 2014” with Mustafa. Throughout the World and U.S/Canada tour, he toured with Omar Apollo and Montell Fish as a guest artist. When performing in his New York, Madison Square Garden, he brought  H.E.R. to sing with, and they fulfilled the crowd with their well known song “Best Part”. Additionally, the duo’s song is a romantic one, so whilst it was being adored through the crowd, couples attending the concert were displayed on the scene and love from couples and singles flowed through Madison Square Garden because that is the feeling Daniel Caesar gives a person. 

Great Hits

From his album Never Enough, my personal top three favorites from his album would be Toronto 2014, Always, and Ocho Rios. All contain a deep upbeat climax where the listener could feel almost any emotion on any day. Out of his entire masterworks, “Loose”, “Transform”, and “Neu Roses” from the album Freudian, his single “West” with River Tiber, and his unreleased single “Horsepower” would be in my top 5. Everytime I hear these songs I get excited and start singing along, like anyone would to their favorite artist.
