September 16, 2024

After releasing their debut track "Back in Office," Saba and the "Godfather of Chicago Hip-Hop" No I.D. collaborate once again for a new single and accompanying visuals entitled "hue_man nature."

This track is a sneak peek of their upcoming mixtape, From the private collection of Saba & No ID. Backed by a thumping baseline and a lively guitar loop, Saba talks about his come-up, highlighting the traps he's avoided and trials he's overcome. "I was going through it human nature," he starts. "You be busy asking me for favors." Throughout the process of realizing his vision and switching banks like an amphibian, Saba continues to value his roots, saying, "We ain't in the street but still adjacent" and "Never leave the team I'm like Damian [Lillard]." Saba delivers his verses with the desert expanse behind him as the sun sets on the horizon.

Saba and No I.D. share the belief that to build a legacy that honors those who came before them while forging new ground, they must not worry too much about being honest in the moment and let time tell all.

"To have a real career, you have to reinvent your thought process, reinvent your perspective," No ID explains. "And you can't do it sitting on the mountaintop, yelling about what you did. You think you know—and then everything changes."
