Musab Saad, [1] (born September 23, 1975) better known by his stage name Sab the Artist, Musab, or Beyond, [2] is an American recording artist, rapper, songwriter, record producer, and music executive from Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is currently based in Las Vegas, Nevada. [3]
Known first by the moniker Beyond and later as Musab, Sab the Artist was a member of the Headshots crew before he, along with Slug (Sean Daley), Ant (Anthony Davis) and Siddiq (Brent Sayers), founded indie hip hop label Rhymesayers Entertainment. [4] In 1996, Beyond had the label's very first release Comparison. [4] In 1999, he released Be-Sides. [5] Dynospectrum's self-titled debut album was also released that year. [5] In 2002, Respect the Life, his first studio album as Musab, was released on Rhymesayers. [6]
The 2007 album Slicks Box was Sab's first official project not released by Rhymesayers, instead coming on Oakland-based Hieroglyphics Imperium Recordings. [7] [8]
Long known as a hip hop artist, Sab's recent projects—including his 2010 EP Sab the Artist and the full-length album H.G.H. (Heaven, Girls, Hell) he worked with Ultra Chorus of Minneapolis—are instead a fusion of "Hip Hop, Pop, R&B, and Electronic sounds". [9]
