In his latest album, Saba embraces a relaxed confidence, showcasing a more playful approach to songwriting. The album's production, led by No ID, features fluid arrangements with rich textures, blending neo-soul elements with vibrant percussion. Notably, tracks like "Stop Playing With Me" highlight Saba's laid-back attitude, while songs such as "Breakdown" reveal a mix of humility and bravado. This new direction is a departure from his earlier, more agitated works, allowing listeners to appreciate a more light-hearted side of his artistry.
This easygoing spirit rewires Saba's previously agitated music, drawing out the snap and swagger in his tumbling flows.
For him, control of his time is the ultimate luxury.
The swing of his percussion and warm vocal tones of neo-soul, a touchstone for Saba, are a clear template for the arrangements.
Saba saunters over crisp drums and warm coos, peppering jokes into affecting narratives about his experiences.
