Never Enough is the third studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Daniel Caesar. It was released through Republic on April 7, 2023, two days after his 28th birthday. Production was handled by Caesar himself, Zachary Simmonds (his younger brother), Sir Dylan, Sevn Thomas, Rami, and Raphael Saadiq.

Background and recording

On February 8, 2022, in an interview with Complex Canada of his home country, Caesar said that he recorded the album mostly by himself after quarantine for the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] Three days later, in an interview with Hypebeast, he stated that he was tapping into different influences aside from his traditional style of R&B music for his next album.[2] On April 12, 2022, it was announced that Caesar had signed with Republic Records and he was interviewed by Billboard, in which he shared that the album would be less focused on R&B and include influences that he was earlier inspired by, such as folk and country music.[3] On March 21, 2023, Caesar announced the title of its album and shared its cover art, tracklist, and release date.

Singles and promotion

The lead single of the album, "Do You Like Me?", was released on January 27, 2023.[4] The second single, "Let Me Go", was released on February 10, 2023.[5] On February 28, 2023, Caesar announced the title of the album via now-deleted social media posts.[6] On March 21, 2023, he shared its release date, cover art, and tracklist.[7] On March 31, 2023, the third single, "Valentina", was released.[8] On April 4, 2023, he released "Unstoppable", the fourth and final single before the album.[9]
