Saba’s new album, Few Good Things, is a rollercoaster of emotions in the best way possible.

Saba has truly perfected the art of intros and “Free Samples” proves this. It ends abruptly but leaves listeners hooked for more.

Track four, meanwhile, sees Saba using unusually pitched-up vocal effects over fast-paced guitar instrumentation.

Fans, meanwhile, have been anticipating Smino and Mereba features for years. Smino’s flow switches, accompanied by 6LACK’s raspy voice, make “Still” one of the smoothest songs on the album. 

Mereba, on the other hand, assists Saba on “a Simpler Time” with post-chorus vocals and a solid final verse.

Needless to say, these features do not disappoint.

“Soldier” is reminiscent of an Outkast song. Saba effortlessly flows just like the great Andre 3000. 

The last three tracks are the project’s saddest, most nostalgic songs. 

“Make Believe” features R&B vocalist Fousheé, who steals the show toward the end. “2012,” meanwhile, recalls Saba’s childhood memories that he holds dearly. 

The outro track, “Few Good Things,” perfectly ends the album. 

Just when listeners think it’s coming to its end, Black Thought appears with such a poetic verse. Then Saba also comes back after a minute pause, continuing the intro track’s verse, satisfying those who felt the intro was too short.

This album, showcasing Saba’s catchiest hooks and most R&B inspired sounds, will pique the interest of Outkast, Smino, and Masego fans.
