"Get You" is a song by Canadian singer and songwriter Daniel Caesar, featuring Colombian-American singer and songwriter Kali Uchis. It was released on October 20, 2016, as the lead single from Caesar's debut studio album, Freudian (2017), with the b-side, "Japanese Denim". "Get You" was written by Caesar and Uchis, with production of both tracks handled by Jordan Evans and Matthew Burnett in collaboration with BadBadNotGood.
"Get You" was nominated for Best R&B Performance at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards.[2]
Background
In an interview with Billboard, Caesar said: "I met a girl and got very involved. She brought things and feelings out of me that I didn't know I had. 'Get You' is a song of praise to a love I didn't even feel I deserved at the time. Being with someone you truly adore and being present enough in the moment that the world literally slows down and you ask yourself how did I stumble into this? I'm always shooting myself in the foot, but I'm in here." Talking about his collaborator on the song, Kali Uchis, he said: "Kali is great and very sweet. There's no ego between us so it makes for great chemistry. We have very different backgrounds and have different world views and I think we perceive music differently because of that, but it blends well. It's lots of fun to work with Kali. We've only just started."[3][4] Reflecting on the song, he told Essence: "I'm absent minded and daydream a lot. It just felt like the song was already there and I was just lucky enough to find it."[5]
Release and reception
"Get You" was released via Caesar's Golden Child Recordings on October 20, 2016, as the lead single from Caesar's debut studio album, Freudian (2017). It premiered on Billboard magazine and Beats 1.

He also performed "We Find Love" alongside, as part of Apple Music's "Up Next" segment. Zane Lowe, who presented Caesar along with James Corden, said of the performance, "It's been amazing to witness Daniel Caesar's journey up to this point. He has one of the most exciting and tasteful voices in modern music."[8][9][10]
