Saba Indulges In The Beauty Of Nature In His Mellow Video For ‘So And So’
The video also comes with a second track with fellow Chicagoan Tobi Lou, entitled ‘Areyoudown? Pt. 2.’ …
Prior to September, the last time Saba shared solo work with the world was not too long after his 2018 album, Care For Me, with his “Where It’s At” single. Since then fans caught flashes of the Chicago native on the Pivot Gang crew’s debut album, You Can’t Sit With Us, He also joined Smino and Noname to create the Ghetto Sage trio. Finally, after the long wait, Saba made his return in September with a pair of singles — “Mrs. Whoever” and “Something In The Water” — and two months later he’s back with two more singles, “So And So” and “Areyoudown? Pt. 2.”
The latter single is an energetic effort that comes attached with a guest appearance from Tobi Lou, who is also native to Chicago. On the other hand, “So And So” is a much more relaxed release that comes attached with a video that finds Saba wandering through a group of makeshift clotheslines filled with vibrant fabrics. Along with the video, the rapper revealed that a conversation between friends helped inspire the song.
“I was talking with some friends recently, and we were talking about vulnerability,” he said in the description of the YouTube video. “My idea or explanation of it immediately went to dealing with adversity and sharing that experience of overcoming it. Everybody kind of came to that conclusion for it. And another friend brought up the fact that sharing joy and sharing happiness is also vulnerable.”

SweetCandy! reveals the truth behind new release “ISOLATED DISPOSITION”
SweetCandy! latest release of “ISOLATED DISPOSITION,” a single that doesn’t just talk but also confesses, opens up a very open space. The song was written right after a fight, and it has a lot of emotional baggage that most artists would be too scared to show. SweetCandy! doesn’t give up, it pushes all the way in.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” is how isolating it feels to be alone and not understood. But instead of blaming others, the story looks inward and reveals a deeper truth, being alone can often be a choice. The song gets to the point, shutting down only makes the emotional distance between us and others bigger.
There isn’t any effort to make things better or hide the pain, SweetCandy! talks openly about how hard it is to want to be understood while also keeping things that would help people understand you. A lot of people who hear it will know right away that it doesn’t make sense.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” seems like a turning point in the end. It shows that people are ready to be more responsible, grow, and be honest with each other in the future. SweetCandy! makes it clear that being open about your feelings isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s the way to be truly seen in a world where it can feel dangerous to do so.

Shweta Harve sings of love that stands strong like a Tree on “Have You Loved Like a Tree?”
Shweta Harve’s latest release, “Have You Loved Like a Tree?” gently prompts listeners to reflect on how we think about love today. She uses a tree as a metaphor to show that love is stable, patient, and unchanging, rather than short-lived or performative.
Harve takes listeners to a place where they can think about their own experiences and the emotional truths they share with others. At its most basic level, the song is about unconditional love, love that gives without expecting anything in return, protects without being seen, and is always there even when you don’t see it.
The lyrics say, “Just like a tree, I will never fold / I will only give, endure, and grow / I’ll hold you close, I’ll let you go,” which is the heart of the song. Harve paints love as something that endures through storms, distance, and silence, just as trees endure through changing seasons. That picture has a quiet power that stays with you long after the song is over.
