Saba's talent and dedication to his craft led him to perform for live audiences even before he reached the age of 18.

Saba's musical style is characterized by its jazzy, positive, and meaningful message, setting him apart from the drill rap scene that originated in his hometown. This distinctive style emerged alongside a whole generation of Chicago rappers, including Chance The Rapper and Mick Jenkins, who were also seeking to redefine the city's rap sound.

Saba's versatility extends beyond his skills as a rapper; he is also a talented multi-instrumentalist and has showcased his production abilities on his own debut album, as well as on Coloring Book, Chance The Rapper's critically acclaimed mixtape.

In 2016, Saba released his debut studio album, Bucket List Project, which received considerable praise from critics and fans alike. The album showcased his introspective storytelling and showcased his ability to craft intricate narratives through his lyrics. Saba followed up his debut with CARE FOR ME in 2018, delving even deeper into personal and emotional themes, garnering further acclaim for his introspective and vulnerable approach to music.
