Emerging independently through his 2014 and 2015 breakthrough EPs Praise Break and Pilgrim's Paradise, Caesar released his landmark debut studio album Freudian in 2017 on his independent imprint Golden Child Recordings. The album garnered multiple Grammy nominations and won the Juno Award for R&B/Soul Recording of the Year, driven by global multi-platinum hits Get You (featuring Kali Uchis) and Best Part (with H.E.R.), which earned the Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance.
