Calebdoee’s new hip hop single “YOU&ME” turns up the heat with a steamy beat built around guitar chords and echoing water drops.
The carefully crafted lyrics are all about “us versus the world,” and an ode to the woman who is “the only one that I want to be next to.”
Go ahead, take away everything that’s stressing me
I promise I never fumble, come take a jet with me
Cause my word is all I got
Music and your love I never flop
It don’t matter what they see
It’s gotta be you and me
Part of a three-song EP titled The Leftovers, “YOU&ME” was recorded at Successful Musik Studios in Fort Wayne.
Born Caleb Martin, the Indiana-based rapper’s previous release was a concept album, Corleone: Part II. Inspired by the iconic main character from The Godfather, for the release Calebdoee took on the persona of Don Corleone, exploring themes of gangsters, family, and destiny. The album explores romance as well, and tracks like “Apollonia (Apple Of My Eye)” foreshadow the current single.
With “YOU&ME,” Caleb says he is getting back to himself. He’s writing about his own life, and focused on having fun with music.
He says, “This mixtape was me being able to get back to form, be true to me before I started working on the project and being able to shape my mindset back to just getting back to having fun with music.”
Calebdoee has been releasing music since 2019, when he dropped his first mixtape, Few Know. On that record he worked with engineer T-Zank, with whom he teamed up again on the current single and EP. “Zank” has been a strong creative partner for Calebdoee, not only engineering but also mixing, mastering, and co-producing tracks.
The 29-year-old rapper first got turned on to music production while taking an audio engineering class in high school. With those production skills, he knew he could build on his high regard for the old school sound of hip hop — think jazz, conscious, and boom-bap subgenres — to create new music that does justice to the artform.
The album art for The Leftovers was created by Caleb’s sister, Kelsey (“ogkillakels”), who does all of the rapper's cover art. He says, “She’s done all my covers; we’ve got years worth of covers. She’s one of the biggest contributors to my music, and I couldn’t be more thankful for my sister.”
As Calebdoee keeps building momentum in the Midwest hip hop scene, “YOU&ME” is a showcase for both his musical talents and his personality. With a music video and live performances on deck for this summer, things are heating up quickly for Calebdoee and his new recordings.
“YOU&ME” is out now with promotional support from Starlight PR. Follow Calebdoee at the links below.
