In business the term Black Label, (also sometimes referred to as custom branding) usually refers to creating a completely unique product or service tailored to your specific requirements. In the context of Saga’s music, it means, taking a collection of loosies and nondedicated songs and building a project by designing new music around them to create a cohesive project.  

The result is somber instrumentals that retain grainy soul samples, crackin’ drum patterns and gritty bars.  Besides Saga’s contributions, featured guests on the project include LeZeppo, Adonis, Mac Montana, Iceburg Snub and Noyz.  Guest producers include Quincy Tones, DJ Skizz, Cuth, Duke Westlake and Trox.

The Black Label Saga is a warmup to two other completed projects from Saga to drop this year.   While this one is a sampler of the many styles and moods of the artist, the following two will be single producer and thematically focused affairs  

With a lengthy history in the game, Saga’s 2015 debut full-length Out Of The Shadows was entirely produced by Marco Polo (Masta Ace, Torae).  He followed that up with 2017’s Molotov with producer Thelonious Martin (Odd Future, Pro Era).  When next he emerged in 2019 with the one-two punch of the Hagler EP and the Agassi LP, he demonstrated his own developed production skills. 2021 saw the drop of another two projects, Wisdom Wears The Crown EP and the Guttersnipe LP.   He has appeared on tracks alongside such notables as Freddie GibbsRoc Marciano and Blu.  He also toured Europe several times with such artists as Fashawn, Exile and Asher Roth.

In addition to these forthcoming releases Saga is also a member of The Drum Majors Production Team along with Marco Polo, DJ Skizz and Shylow.
