Many of his songs have made it on the charts in the Netherlands and Belgian Flanders.[2][3] During the New Year's night of 2017–18, Saaf had a flat tire after a performance. After three women gave him a lift when coming back from a party, he called them "hookers" on social media. The following day, he defended himself by saying that girls who are drunk, wear "slutty" clothes and are in clubs until eight in the morning, are "hookers" compared to girls who listen to their parents and study and sit at home. As a result, Dutch and Belgian radio stations boycotted his music for a time. He apologized for his statements the following day (2 January) and also on 20 January 2018.[4][5][6]
