Hip-hop artist Saba first turned heads with a verse on “Everybody’s Something,” off Chance The Rapper’s Acid Rap. But the Chicago native is now pushing past guest appearances with the release of an ambitious new mixtape titled Bucket List Project. Saba’s packed 13 tracks onto the Bucket List Project, which are all streaming for free on Soundcloud right now. The West Sider constructs vignettes of his Austin neighborhood on singles like “Church/Liquor Store,” with the whole album coming together as a lyrical tribute to his hometown. Fellow Chitown artists Twista and Noname—the latter of whom just released her own excellent mixtape—feature on some stirring tracks.
And in case you missed it, here’s the video announcement for Saba’s Bucket List Project.
