Yet another treat from Chicago’s bountiful hip hop scene is Saba, born Tahj Malik Chandler and hailing from the West Side. Earlier in 2016, he gave us one of the best hip hop releases of the year with Bucket List Project. The opening track “In Loving Memory” begins with the start of an ignition, taking us on a smooth drive of hooks and jaunts crafted so well he makes it seem easy. On “Westside Bound 3″, he speaks of growing up in a “a part of the city that they don’t be talking about” and of watching himself and his friends go down starkly separate paths.
