It’s the balance, but it’s the preparation and the fearlessness and all that, I think is what I hope to gain from Bucket List. The project’s message is that anyone can achieve their goals. Repping Chicago’s West Side (and you can hear that on the album), Saba knows what it’s like to grow up in an area where aspirations are often futile. The Bucket List Project, for me it was just trying to do grand things that were all in that mindset that were like we can achieve it, you know? A lot of us, we raised to not believe a lot of stuff-and that’s kind of where I was with it. In a conversation with Vice, Saba talked about the concept behind the project: The passing of my uncle led me to making the Bucket List Project.Īccordingly, the album explores dreams, goals, and aspirations.

It was inspired by the passing of his uncle, hence the title Bucket List Project. Saba’s debut album follows 2014’s ComfortZone and his 2015 foray into production, SpareChange!.
