Description

Introducing Love You Babe – a dynamic new track that artfully blends the timeless influences of Quincy Jones, Rick James, Michael Jackson, Prince, Heatwave, Herbie Hancock, and Motown with a cutting-edge 2025 sound. This record is a showcase of pure live instrumentation, entirely arranged and written by Saad Chishty. Inspired by his daily walks near historic Motown Records on Grand Blvd by Wayne State University, the track features meticulously arranged live horns performed by Tower of Power, lush strings from the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and soulful guitars by T. Saunders. Detroit, famously known as Motor City because it was the hub of the automotive industry, gave birth to the legendary Motown label that forever changed American music. As noted by Melinda Shreve of Detroit News, this rare new-age Motown sound is a fresh evolution in the musical landscape. Slated for release on Kaboom Records this summer, "Love You Babe" is a bold statement that bridges Saad's diverse musical heritage with innovative creativity—a must-listen for any discerning curator.
