After a year packed with creative wins and collaborations, Saba is closing out 2025 with one final gift — a fresh new mixtape titled “COFFEE.”

Chicago’s very own Saba is set to release a brand-new mixtape titled COFFEE this Friday, capping off an already impressive year. Known for his balance of sharp lyricism, jazz-inspired production, and emotional storytelling, Saba’s upcoming tape could easily become one of this year’s defining releases.

Lowkey, Saba has quietly been having an excellent 2025. On March 18, he dropped the underrated gem From The Private Collection of Saba and No I.D. — a reflective and sonically rich project featuring Kelly Rowland, Jordan Ward, Raphael Saadiq, and several others. Since then, he’s been building momentum toward a major hometown moment — headlining the John Walt Day Performance with his Pivot Gang collective at The Metro in Chicago on November 28.

Be sure to stream COFFEE when it drops this Friday and see why Saba remains one of hip-hop’s most consistent and compelling voices.
