Saba is a Chicagoan rapper and producer best known for standout assists on the legendary mixtapes of Chance The Rapper. The 22-year-old artist always delivers on his guest verses, and he has long been expected to build on that momentum and transition into a prolific solo act. Following the death of his uncle in 2014, he spent the next year in a slump with a growing frustration over the state of his career and a trying bout with writer's block, but we believe that with this project, he's come out of it now. Bucket List Project is the result of overcoming this aforementioned existential angst—an account of outrunning demons and chasing dreams in "the part of the city that they don't be talkin' about". It is a fitting introduction to a talented artist that so many have heard but not nearly as many truly know about—until now. Stream Bucket List Project on SoundCloud and/or purchase the album for only $4.99 on iTunes now.
