Directly following his massive Chance the Rapper collab, Saba channels his inner Lupe Fiasco for his latest. Taking inspiration from the aforementioned Chicago icon’s classic album Food & Liquor, Saba serves up a new video for his 2014 efort “TimeZone/Whip (areyoudown?).” Saba took many of his inspirational cues for today’s drop from the Food & Liquor cover-art. Explaining the LP’s significance to Noisey, Saba had the following to say:

“That was one of the first rap albums that I was super connected to and super in love with the sound of it. So that was like a no-brainer to be like ‘let’s try to visualize this and make it a motion picture kind of deal where we take a picture and add some life to it,’”

You can check out Saba’s latest video above.
