Saga Legin drops new music video

Saga Legin is a hip hop artist with over two decades in the industry, bringing to life his musical output as a DJ, audio engineer and producer who shapes his sound through both underground and mainstream influences. From spinning records in iconic New York City clubs to working alongside artists like Nicki Minaj, Jim Jones and Maino, he’s confirmed his status in the scene.

His music fuses the golden-era essence of 90s and early 2000s hip hop with elements of R&B and jazz, creating a cinematic sound that’s struck a chord with conscious hip hop audiences. Inspired by artists like Nas and Mobb Deep, Saga’s work reflects a deep appreciation for storytelling, authenticity and musical exploration which has seen him go from strength to strength over the years.

As a producer and artist, Saga Legin has made waves with projects like Love/War, an album that showcases his ability to pair thoughtgul lyricism with soulful, jazz-infused beats. Tracks like “9/11” and “Our Reality” highlight his dedication to conscious hip hop and his work has been recognised in industry publications like Producer’s Edge and Code NYC Magazine.

Now, Saga Legin steps into the spotlight once again with the release of his highly anticipated video for his latest single titled “Not The Same.” A track that blends R&B and hip hop influences, “Not The Same” is an emotionally charged anthem centred around self-worth, empowerment and the evolution that comes with relationships. The song was born from a conversation with his longtime collaborator and producer Owen, known as Newo. “The song explores the experiences of women in relationships and encourages them to reflect on their worth and demand the appreciation they deserve,” Saga shares.

The writing process was fluid, unfolding naturally in a single day, as Newo’s beat provided the perfect emotional foundation for Saga’s reflective lyrical work. Recorded in a private studio, “Not The Same” is a product of Saga’s hands-on approach, handling both the engineering and vocal delivery himself, resulting in a track that feels profoundly personal, a heartfelt expression of the themes that have defined his work to date.

The music video for “Not The Same” amplifies its themes through striking visuals, working closely with a trusted group of friends and collaborators, it was shot in a Jersey mansion designed as a funhouse to bring the track’s message of transformation to life. With a beat-driven sound and razor-sharp rapped delivery cut with the soulful vocal performance of featured artist Jae Storm, with “Not The Same,” Saga Legin serves up a superb hip hop jam that’s sure to win over fans around the world.
