Stop calling what he does conscious rap. He raps about everyday normal life. We need to stop acting like this is a sub genre because street content dominates rap. Saba touches on all that shyt too just not from the perspective of a hustler or shooter or whatever. That don't mean he s preacher or savior neither. Just a regular breh.
Hip hop became so unbalanced as it got mainstream that we accepted one dimensional characters as normal and started sub categorizing humans like a person can't have range. These sub categories are just cages and limitations. The coming of Kanye was supposed to kill all this shyt. "Is he gangster is he this or that." He just an artist, that is archaic thinking... Saba just an artist with a lot of range. Stop putting people in boxes.
