Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - Reset Music Faves: Chicago Artist Saba Discusses New Album ‘Few Good Things’

Saba’s latest album “Few Good Things,” took almost four years to finish. “Part of the personal evolution that you hear is just the time spent sitting with the record, tweaking the record, and being able to be present,” he told Reset. The Chicago hip-hop artist takes us inside his follow-up to 2018’s “CARE FOR ME” and tells us how vulnerability fuels his process. For more Reset interviews, subscribe to this podcast.
