A successful black independent artist, Saba has rooted his career in an authenticity and musicality that’s made him one of this generation’s most important and unique voices. The Chicago polymath released his 3rd studio album, Few Good Things, on February 4th. The album is the follow-up to his critically-acclaimed 2018 album CARE FOR ME, for which he earned honors as one of the Chicago Tribune’s Chicagoans of the Year and has performed 100+ shows worldwide. Saba’s Few Good Things marks another seamless project offering from the Chicago artist. The album campaign successfully tied in themes of generational dialogue, reflection, community and ownership, with an emphasis on Black ownership. Accompanied by a stunning short film directed by C.T. Robert with powerful storytelling led by a conversation between Saba and his grandfather, Few Good Things deals with where Saba is currently at in life and the pipeline between poverty and success. Incorporating Black owned companies, independent creators, and filmmakers into album content, working alongside family and friends to produce artwork and assets all while reinforcing the values that mean the most to him. Saba began making music at age 9 and was writing and producing songs by early adolescence. Building a recording studio in his Grandmother’s basement on the Westside of Chicago, he and a group of neighborhood friends formed their Pivot Gang collective and began taking trains across the city to join creative youth organizations and perform at open mics that spawned community with Noname, Mick Jenkins and more. In 2019, J. Cole tapped Saba for his Revenge of the Dreamers III project where they featured together on the powerful closer “Sacrifices”. In 2015 he teamed up with Chance the Rapper for single “Angels,” and this year he earned his first RIAA Gold certification for his own 2016 single “Photosynthesis”
