SAAY's debut album was released in 2018. With her first full-length album, ‘CLAASSIC‘, R&B singer-songwriter and performer SAAY reinterprets ’60s-’90s pop, R&B, and soul music. She received support from Punchnello, Crush, and more. Along with the LP, its title track’s music video has come out.
SAAY debuted in July last year with the single ‘CIRCLE (Feat. Tish Hyman)‘, followed by ‘SWEATY (Feat. CRUSH)‘, ‘COLD VIEW‘, and ‘ENCORE‘–all pre-releases off this album.
The pop, R&B, and soul music of the ’60s-’90s has influenced SAAY’s own music a lot, especially artists like The Jackson 5, Brandy, Lauryn Hill, or Prince. In 18 tracks, she reinterpreted their classics in her own way, showing her will to be a bridge between the old school and the present.
By using smooth storytelling and four interludes that function as seamless transitions between the songs (and even between their chords), SAAY aims to maintain a classic style. The album is built in a way that gives the listener the impression of having watched a movie or read a novel.
In this fast-paced world, SAAY hopes that her full-length album may be of comfort or of motivation to someone who feels tired.

You are flying away
To the sky
Don't know what shape, shape you got

SAAY's song, 'CIRCLE', is a love song between two people who are deeply attracted to each other. The song begins with the singer, SAAY, hoping that the person she is singing to would notice her and feel the same way she does. She sees them as an object of wonder flying off to the sky, and she can't help but wonder what kind of shape they have. She expresses a desire to be with this person, disregarding all rules and societal barriers.
SAAY then invites this person to form a circle with her, which only belongs to the two of them. She assures them that they can trust her with their secrets and promises to be their support system. SAAY also acknowledges that the person has been hurt before in previous relationships but vows to never do the same. She wants to be their wifey and make a new, safe, and trusting circle with them.
In the chorus, SAAY urges the person to be honest about their feelings and build a circle with her. The circle represents their mutual love and connection, and no one can penetrate it. The song's ending repeats the chorus and insists they should make the move and realize their love.
