Personally, I adore this record for how mature Saba comes across and the closer track has got to be one of his most complete, beautiful and powerful cuts to date.

    This was my positive introduction to saba. Usually I’m very picky with my conscious hip hop, and a lot of artists in the genre just aren’t my thing. Up until this album that was the case with Saba, but Few Good Things genuinely makes me hyped for whatever he drops next (hopefully in less than 4 years but either way). I’m happy Fantano agrees with me for the most part cus this is a pretty sick album. 7/10 for me
    My favorite song on the album btw is definitely Still with 6lack and Smino. Definitely the best features for me especially Smino (another artist I’m not usually crazy for but who occasionally wows me), and all 3 of them have amazing chemistry. I hope they work together again in the future

    Light 8. This album really unlocked for me on the third listen. Maybe I'm just shallow and this album is shallow, but I really vibed with this album and found a lot of good hooks here. It feels like Saba's successfully coming to terms with all of the bad things life's thrown at him. "If I Had a Dollar" is my favorite track.

    Fnarano consistent underrates hip hop. Idk if it's his inability to connect to the cultural elements or his strict attention to almost EXCLUSIVELY the musical elements individually but he, without fail, misses the weight of the relevant subject matter and introspection through art of so many vital hip hop projects. It almost makes me proud to ignore him except when he pops up occasionally on my feed. It's a shame and I'm completely uninterested in his opinions on hip hop.

      @Justin_R20 2 роки тому +1

      completely agree, this album is deep and beautiful. it can evoke feelings and emotions like few albums ive heard, but fantano ignores the theme completely and just throws things out there like "He sounds like chance the rapper" "i didnt like when he added this effect to his voice" lol

    I think a lot of Anthony's issues with the album are quite nitpicky. Saba has his own unique sound that aren't heavily based on his influences

    Let's be real, Anthony. You would've given this album an 8 at least if it was titled "Many Good Things".

  • @mattyjruys
    @mattyjruys 2 роки тому +3

    I agree with most of you're reviews but, I feel very differently to you on this one. Sure, my initial impression of 'Few Good Things' was that I was a little underwhelmed but, the album has continued to grow on me exponentially with multiple listens, to the point where now it's one of my 2022 favorites to date.

  • @artinthewater

    just came back to this one recently and it feels like a nice hug. He has this bittersweet nostalgic storytelling that I don't think he does better than any other rapper and songs like 2012 encapsulate all his good points. But you do you melon

    Me listening to Kendrick: “Damn, this dude sounds like all of the other Compton rappers that influenced him. GKMC? Meh/10. TPAB? 6/10.”
    You sound goofy as hell talking about Saba and you know it, Mantano.

      I hated that argument in the first place. Him and Chance started releasing music around the same time and he constantly continues to say that he's influenced by him. Yeah chance blew up only a year after first releasing music but Saba has been posting music since 2013 as well.
