I just wanna say that thru everything, there is so many ppl that relate to you. We don't want to lose your voice. Never stop, never give up. Even at your lowest low, just know you have reached so many ppl and impacted them in great ways. #ForeverAFan
Seeing Cal come to the realization that creating music for money doesn't lead to happiness, but instead, doing it because he loves the art proves that he is a real and honest artist.
I dont make comments on here, ever. But I've told every single person I've met to check you out and when they ask why I tell them it's because, not only is every single song my favorite shit I've ever heard, not only is it one of the most unique sounds I've ever heard, but you speak some of the realest shit I've ever heard in every song. Even if it's just a banger with dope bars, they're some of the most amazingly constructed lyrics I've ever heard. I know that feeling of finishing a line and being ecstatic and feeling like a child and, over the past couple years, I've lost that drive but this just made me want to get back to it. So thank you for not only giving me someone to brag about and allowing me to be the one in my group that has that unheard fire to unload on them, but for motivating me to get back to my pen and feel that feeling again. Keep putting them out and we'll all keep sharing, you're doing more for us than you know. 🤘
This $hit hit different! We idolize ppl with such skill and dedication, almost to a godly status, so to hear your story of vulnerability is humanizing and relieving. Not many in the game that do this!
why cant i get outta my bed Thoughts i cant get outta my head Got blacked out maxed out my credit card Why cant i get outta my debt Related to every line of that song. Its nice hearing you open up about the struggles of ur journey. As consumers it helps incite hope when we deal with our own struggle. I hope you find that happiness u been working towards, u fuckin deserve it man. We always got ur back
You can always tell your music comes from the heart and soul, real life struggles and trials are what build us to be better and stronger, and you can see the growth and progress. The fact you went through so much and never sold out shows you're one of the most real artists left put there. Things will get better man never stop pushing yourself for success. Much love, stay on top brotha
This video was straight confirmation that you are exactly what your music portrays bro. It's bad ass knowing that my favorite artist, the bro I can relate to every day and helps me get through my everyday struggle in life through that universal sound is exactly the dude I thought he was. That's very rare for an artist bro and this video is fuckin fire. Stay true Cal thanks for sharing your sound and allowing us to get a chance to know the human side of you. Be safe out there a lot of haters waiting to pounce on a guy that's taking the road less traveled and making it to the top on his own.
“I’m not the Weekend” lol But seriously, the part where you talked about being giddy like a little kid, I knew exactly what feeling you meant. I’m only in the beginning, but I’m hoping to create in a space similar. I really enjoyed you talking about completing the project in a space as some type of finality to a chapter. You were right when you said not going to school for producing music over a year ago...I’m learning more by myself.
Over the last (almost) 5 years that I’ve been following your journey I think you’re at your peak self. I know you’ll have days you don’t feel 100%, but you have all of us who love and support you to the end. You’re amazing and what you’re growing for yourself, with the effort and satisfaction at the end shows you your own self worth. It’s amazing all the things you do for us as supporters and fans to let us know who you are as well as what you’re going through. You’re making it places you probably never thought you’d get to. Keep pushing, and we will keep supporting. Love you Cal, thank you for sneaking us a peak ☺️❤️
You’re forever going to be my favorite person. I will be a lifelong fan. So proud of your progress! This community you’ve built is so amazing. I think I speak for everyone here, we are always going to support you. Fuck a label. As I say always, glad you have your close friends.
I really feel what you are saying at 3:30 on. No matter what you get in life and how much money comes into your pocket it doesn't change who you are in your mind and it's easy to adjust to that new level and then get right back into where you were before you had the success anyway. The never-ending search for fulfillment can be rough as hell.
You are brilliant. With intelligence and sensitivity often comes depression, however that can give an artist the substance to create from. I think you are incredible Cal, you're absolutely authentic and want to give you a HUGE hug!!!
Underrated but will 1000% blow up I know it. Big inspiration to me right here. Keep being the chill down to earth guy you are you’re so fucking loved my man.
Keep your head up. Keep working hard. Keep standing your ground. And you will keep going up. Your depression will pass. Nothing is meant to stand still. Let life happen
Your fans are your supporters. We're all here for you, Cal! & The support's just gonna keep growing. Just keep doing you, keep pushing & life will hand you great fucking things down the road 💯
On the come up man you just have to stay up, I'm the same age hitting the same struggles. Depression is a bitch and it sucks when you bust through your ceilings and you don't feel the way you expected. Weird how things evolve man been following you for a few years now and its dope having shit to listen to that's relatable, makes it easier and less lonely hearing you vent it vocally and lyrically the same way its taking up space in my head. Thank you Cal.
When you hear him speak and then go listen to his music you can tell that it's actually his real life and not just a story someone wrote he says "I've been working out a closet in my apartment" and with this video you can see the genuine hard work put into this! It's great. Thanks Cal for your motivation to keep going!
The first song I heard while working in a kitchen in Michigan. Who are you was bumping and I became hooked. While you were sleeping release got me through a rough depressive episode so I just wanted to thank you. Your talent is outstanding and I admire the drive you have. Keep going, keep creating, and keep rollin because that’s all we can do is create. Much love!
So crazy how much we connect to people we've never met, and assume how they live, it's such a breath to see real people who are also artist and not just a "Famous" Persona 24/7, Really feel a connection to Cal with these videos, going through some of the same things at different times in our lives it's nice to see that this "Famous" person I look up to also feels what I feel and I can very much learn from where he was because it's where I currently am, love it all bro
You're one of the best new rappers that I've found and I haven't stopped streaming While You Were Sleeping for the past week. Great lyricism and flow, I hope you continue to channel that negative energy into creativity for your music because it absolutely slaps. Much love Cal
I love how much growth has happened just last year for you, for us as the fans. It’s really been just a journey that I’ve loved watching and can’t wait for everything else to come!!!
Life has its ups and downs, long as you stay on the right path shit will turn out great for you. Love yo shit Cal thanks for the opportunity to get to see this side of you and the early access to this and the deluxe edition of the album
Everytime I introduce Your music to someone they say you have a different feel and mood than everyone else. I think this is why. Don't feel like you're chasing, feels like you're holding onto! While you were sleeping is my Favorite album right now.
Ive been loving your music for the last year, im sure im crazy late. I looked up interviews onn you to try to get to know the guy behind the music and I have to say you are the truth. I hope you find peace and continue to share your gift.
With that kind of vet word play and delivery at a young age, plus the fact you done a song with my favorite rapper of all time,Redman...you must do music.
This video is so raw and honest and real man thank you for this. You are a freaking legend. There is a space for you in hip hop and you have created it with your simple delivery..understated image, genius pen game, honest production . Stay up man you are gaining more fans every month just stick with the recipe cause 🇨🇦 knows you got the sauce
Cal you the man. Don’t ever stop what you do. Your very unique and your music is amazing. I listen to it everyday when I work. Along with other shit obviously but I feel like I’m picky and your shit does it for me.
Dope shit bro. I moved back East from LA about a year ago after my ups and downs too. Was thinking about going back but either way, this shit hit me hard. Keep it up. Keep being you you’ll be fine.
Resonating with this hard right now as I pack up my life w/no idea what’s going to happen next. But like you said, Needed this deadline to finally start the next chapter of life, get out of the routine of procrastination and indecisiveness & make something happen. I hope you keep on doing you and making these videos cuz it’s nice to finally hear someone be real and say something that makes sense about what goes on in your head. & you’re music videos are 🔥🔥🔥 can’t get enough!
Thanks for everything, Cal. I’ve been talking to you over text the past couple weeks and I’m just super happy to call myself a fan of yours. You’re a super good dude, and your music has gotten me through a ton. Keep on killing & vibing, we’re all right here to support you on your way up. 🤘🏻
I love how abstract some of your music is, it's very different yet feels like home. I'm 27 and just started making music on my phone- I had an epiphany of myself when I was tripping super hard on tons of mushrooms and one tab of acid. I'm realizing what feeds my soul and what doesn't. Making music makes me get butterflies and I get super giddy too. I have a long road ahead of me to constantly grow and adapt. I hope to one day be as good as you, one love💜✌🏻
We stand by you and support you 💯! To us you are one of the best rappers alive. We are able to identify ourselves with your lyrics. Thank you for being who you are, thank you for being humble! Thank you for you music!
There's a lot of underground artists similar to Cal in terms of fan base size and scope but for some reason I feel as tho Cal is built different. Out of the 50 other rappers i've stumbled upon via youtube/spotify, I really do feel like Cal is actually going to make it big. He is as unique as you can be in an overpopulated genre and you can tell there is more of an IQ in his dome than most rappers. I'm enjoying watching his climb very much. Very cool stuff.
So glad I found your music randomly. You blew my mind with your style and flow. Listened to the first song..yeah this real good but what about The others.. Listened the 2nd song..ok ok I feel it 3rd song..yeah this is ridiculous. Keep doing your thing
"Yes ya'll, we're moving at the speed of life Illuminate the path that we're moving on Accumulate knowledge in amounts where we make the people bounce with the music in surround" ~Aesop Fables
Keep it up Scrubs, I pride myself on knowing all the underground, underated rappers out there, and you're for certain in the top 5 imo, possibly even top 2 bro, you deliver on all aspects, only thing for me keeping you from my top spot is adding supersonic speed to the caliber of lyrical content you exude. Like Luke Gawne and Chvse for examples, but you do have the best attitude and humble spirit so maybe my perspective will shift soon and you'll be my number 1 lol keep at it bro you're amazing
God, this speaks so much to my heart, especially the part of that money doesn’t make you truly happy. 🙏 You are so real, never pretended to be something you‘re not. It’s so so rare, especially in Hollywood. Please never stop doing, what you are doing. We admire and support you all so much, you are a true artist ❤️🙏 I wish you so much, that you‘ll find, what makes you happy and that you‘ll receive lots of it, because you deserve it! 🙏
the most underrated artist of the last 20 years. Cal is like the Jim Morrison of Rap. hyper intelligent, extremely creative, and musically masterful.
agree
He's soooo good dude
Jim was legit a genius though and not a good poet lol
Agreed. His lyrics resonate with me and I'm not even a hip hop fan. Let's hope he lives longer than Jim 🙏
Love seeing how chill and down to earth Cal is, makes the music that much better.
I just wanna say that thru everything, there is so many ppl that relate to you. We don't want to lose your voice. Never stop, never give up. Even at your lowest low, just know you have reached so many ppl and impacted them in great ways. #ForeverAFan

Keep putting them out and we'll all keep sharing, you're doing more for us than you know. 🤘
You just took the words straight outta my mouth man. I had to go back and make sure I didn't type this comment 😂
This $hit hit different! We idolize ppl with such skill and dedication, almost to a godly status, so to hear your story of vulnerability is humanizing and relieving. Not many in the game that do this!
Mixing in the bad with the good apparently
why cant i get outta my bed
Thoughts i cant get outta my head
Got blacked out maxed out my credit card
Why cant i get outta my debt
Related to every line of that song. Its nice hearing you open up about the struggles of ur journey. As consumers it helps incite hope when we deal with our own struggle. I hope you find that happiness u been working towards, u fuckin deserve it man. We always got ur back
"wanna copy my shit?
Here it is..."
that rawwwww
learning, self taught, disciplinary, stay true to you, visionary shit.
The most slept on!! You the man Cal
Authenticity is always key. It shines through the bullshit. I genuinely hope this guy goes from strength to strength.
This guy is refreshing. Love how he all about staying true to himself and not worried about the materials
Thank you for this Cal 💯 this means alot to us fans to see this behind the scenes and documentary stuff. Keep up the great work
You can always tell your music comes from the heart and soul, real life struggles and trials are what build us to be better and stronger, and you can see the growth and progress. The fact you went through so much and never sold out shows you're one of the most real artists left put there. Things will get better man never stop pushing yourself for success.

I could listen to you talk for hours. Technically already have but god man you make me feel alive again. Thank you Calvin. From all of us.
His way of thinking makes so much sense to me. A true artist.
Real ones here on the jump. 🔥
GOAT.
I write rhymes but have never recorded. 33 years old tomorrow and I know exactly the feeling he's talking about. That's love for the craft.
You’re forever going to be my favorite person. I will be a lifelong fan. So proud of your progress! This community you’ve built is so amazing. I think I speak for everyone here, we are always going to support you. Fuck a label. As I say always, glad you have your close friends.

3:54 me too.
Idk you but your music has influenced me so much. Its more than just music, its a period of my life.
You are brilliant. With intelligence and sensitivity often comes depression, however that can give an artist the substance to create from. I think you are incredible Cal, you're absolutely authentic and want to give you a HUGE hug!!!
It's videos like this that make me respect the artists even more.
Underrated but will 1000% blow up I know it. Big inspiration to me right here. Keep being the chill down to earth guy you are you’re so fucking loved my man.
Keep your head up.
Keep working hard.
Keep standing your ground.
And you will keep going up.
Your depression will pass.
Nothing is meant to stand still.
Let life happen
I love the behind the scenes look at the album and his life. Much appreciated stay healthy Cal.
Your fans are your supporters. We're all here for you, Cal! & The support's just gonna keep growing. Just keep doing you, keep pushing & life will hand you great fucking things down the road 💯

Maybe a min in.... already love this!... Cal showing him for him
Keep your head high man, although it doesnt seem like it at times someone always loves you.
I love how abstract some of your music is, it's very different yet feels like home.
I'm 27 and just started making music on my phone- I had an epiphany of myself when I was tripping super hard on tons of mushrooms and one tab of acid.
I'm realizing what feeds my soul and what doesn't.
Making music makes me get butterflies and I get super giddy too. I have a long road ahead of me to constantly grow and adapt.
I hope to one day be as good as you, one love💜✌🏻

I SMASHED the like button. I love this kind of content from artist I appreciate greatly! Keep em coming Cal
Most anticipated project of 2020!!!
All of these are bangers but small talk is just godly
There's a lot of underground artists similar to Cal in terms of fan base size and scope but for some reason I feel as tho Cal is built different.

Keep it up Scrubs, I pride myself on knowing all the underground, underated rappers out there, and you're for certain in the top 5 imo, possibly even top 2 bro, you deliver on all aspects, only thing for me keeping you from my top spot is adding supersonic speed to the caliber of lyrical content you exude. Like Luke Gawne and Chvse for examples, but you do have the best attitude and humble spirit so maybe my perspective will shift soon and you'll be my number 1 lol keep at it bro you're amazing
i liked this a lot. thanks.

God, this speaks so much to my heart, especially the part of that money doesn’t make you truly happy. 🙏 You are so real, never pretended to be something you‘re not. It’s so so rare, especially in Hollywood.
Please never stop doing, what you are doing. We admire and support you all so much, you are a true artist ❤️🙏
I wish you so much, that you‘ll find, what makes you happy and that you‘ll receive lots of it, because you deserve it! 🙏
