About this Song
Daniel Caesar, the credited artist behind the sound titled Who Knows, creates work rooted in the expansive, diverse creative ecosystem of the Philippines, a country whose musical community has long fostered boundary-pushing sonic expression that defies easy categorization, which aligns perfectly with this sound’s unassigned genre framework, which invites full engagement with the work without the bias of pre-conceived notions about what a recording from this context should sound like. For too often, listeners and observers alike try to stuff every new sound into rigid genre boxes that erase the nuance and individuality of an artist’s creative choices, but by approaching Who Knows without a pre-assigned genre label, we are able to center the artist’s vision first, rather than filtering their work through the expectations that come with common genre classifications that can flatten the complexity of any creative output.
