The album "Care for Me" doubles as a memorial for Saba’s cousin, John Walt, who was stabbed to death in February 2017.
“I was listening with one of the producers and he actually pointed it out: ‘Damn dude, all of these songs are about Walt,'” Saba told Rolling Stone in July.
He will embark on his first tour of Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Korea, scheduled to begin in November.
