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 Gibbs, Roc 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.

Nsrb Dray Starts The Year With ‘Eye For Eye’

As if dropping a three-pack project filled with bangers was not eye-catching enough, Burgeoning Ghanaian talent NSRB Dray has served another masterpiece with the release of his new single “Eye for Eye.”
Known for singing from raw emotions, NSRB Dray takes it a step further in this new release where he talks about being in a state of despair and self-doubt.
However, there’s no doubt about his intentions on the record. NSRB Dray goes in hard from the first beat drop on the YNT Deezy-produced track.
On “Eye for Eye,” he glides on the boppy instrumentals for two minutes straight, highlighting the world’s abundance of greed, unforgiveness, ego, and pride.
He opens with his version of the famous Mahatma Gandhi saying, “An eye for an Eye leaves the world blind,” before letting his baritone vocals shine through what can pass a “here’s how the world works” pep talk to the listeners.
The record boasts of superior rawness draped around melodious saxophone sounds by Sam Aryee, missing in so many fine-tuned street-preaching jams lately. NSRB Dray’s delivery stands out as the lyrics pierce the ears and hearts of the listeners to nod and note down.
He shared the reason for his choice of lyrics exclusively to Amplify Ghana, stating that his never-give-up spirit pushed him to send a message of hope to his audience.
“Eye for Eye is a music piece written in a state of disrepair and self-doubt. It talks about not giving up and staying well composed in every situation,” he explained.
After dropping “PLAN B” which touched on a similar subject matter, last year, this new release could easily pass as his master plan, but the singer’s unpredictability and versatility means fans can expect different sounds from him.
“Eye for Eye,” is NSRB Dray’s 2025 welcome message. It was mixed by the singer and mastered by talented sound engineer QID Korle.
