A Saba Pivot Polaroid painting.

“Whatever events occur, focus on the big picture.”

The line harmonized by Ogi and Saba brings me peace, an affirmation, if you will. Gratitude is one of the most important things to possess in life. Remain true to yourself and stay focused amidst the distractions forced upon us in every direction. 

From the Private Collection of Saba and No I.D. is the collaborative studio album released in March of 2025. From beginning to end, the message is made apparent, and Saba’s direction is clear. 

This “Big Picture” is exactly that, a Polaroid snapshot on canvas. A pixelated background, hyper-focused on Saba. 

“Big Picture Tour” June 13, 2025; Silver Spring, MD

On Friday, June 13, 2025, I attended the Big Picture tour, seeing Saba live for the first time after being an avid listener since Care for Me, and the Chance the Rapper features. The show featured Ovrkst, and Saba with a live band and guest performance from FrshWater, a Pivot Gang member.

I had the opportunity to gift the painting I made of Saba to him after the show ended! It was a very surreal moment for me, drenched in admiration and pride for the passion and intention behind my creative process.
