Yung Saber

Yung Saber — South London–born and based — is a producer, recording artist and actor who works across drum and bass/jungle-adjacent styles and related bass genres. Within the DnB/jungle spectrum his listed genres include Drum And Bass, Jungle and Liquid Funk; he also releases material that intersects with Dancehall, Ragga, Reggae, Dubstep, Grime, UK Garage and Bassline.

He first surfaced on the UK dancehall circuit with the single "Tump & Kick" (circa 2020). Since then he has continued releasing music and recording collaborations: "Gucci Prada" arrived January 26, 2024, and "M15/NORMAL" was released October 17, 2024 — the latter credited with Zed Bias and Chi Ching Ching. Public biographical detail about his early training and stated influences is limited, but his release history and featured artists show a throughline from South London dancehall into bass-heavy UK club styles.

Musically, Yung Saber’s output sits where dancehall vocal phrasing and ragga toasting meet bass-centred production and break-based rhythms. Across his known tracks he leans on syncopated rhythms and low‑end weight drawn from bassline, dubstep and DnB practice, and he often foregrounds vocal performance — both his own and those of featured singers or MCs. Working with artists such as Chi Ching Ching and appearing on remixes with Big Zeeks points to a deliberate use of dancehall/reggae vocal textures; collaborations with Kings Of The Rollers and Zed Bias connect him to rollers and UK garage-derived rhythmic patterns. These are concrete elements in his sound rather than abstract labels.

As a producer, Yung Saber contributes both original singles and collaborative tracks. Key releases to date are "Tump & Kick" (c. 2020), "Gucci Prada" (26 January 2024) and "M15/NORMAL" (17 October 2024) — the latter carrying credits with Zed Bias and Chi Ching Ching. He has recorded collaborations and features with Kings Of The Rollers, Chi Ching Ching, Irah and Prince Akeem, and he has appeared on remixes featuring Big Zeeks and others. On the live and broadcast side, Saber has performed at UK events and festivals including Glastonbury, MADE Festival and Notting Hill Carnival, and he has been featured on BBC radio shows including Rampage and Seani B as well as taking part in a BBC 1Xtra Maida Vale session.

Specific connections in his career are visible in the names he works with: Zed Bias (UK garage producer) and Kings Of The Rollers (drum & bass collective) appear on releases or in credits, while Chi Ching Ching and Prince Akeem tie his output to dancehall and ragga vocal traditions. Yung Saber’s recorded collaborations with Irah and his appearances on remixes with Big Zeeks further map the hubs he operates in across South London’s bass, garage and dancehall networks.

Publicly available information on Yung Saber’s personal influences or a full discography is limited; the verifiable record is his South London origin and base, his role as producer/recording artist/actor, the releases and dates above, his named collaborators, festival appearances (Glastonbury, MADE Festival, Notting Hill Carnival) and his BBC radio and Maida Vale session credits. His most recent verified release is "M15/NORMAL" (credited with Zed Bias and Chi Ching Ching), released 17 October 2024, and he remains based in South London.
