Almost everyone backing the kid Saigon was let down when his first single, "Pain in My Life," was swagger jacked and overshadowed by Ludacris' fake, out-of-place "Runaway Love." Looking for Saigitty's take on the whole ordeal? I got it right here. Gitty's debut The Greatest Story Never Told better than Nas' debut Illmatic? That's exactly what he said.

Shout out to the kid Mikey Fresh putting in work at The Source, who sat down with Saigon in the office and got this exclusive interview, available on TheIndustryCosign:

"I'm guaranteeing the best hip-hop album in the last twenty years. Guaranteed to change the game, but it's gonna do more then change the game, it's going to change life; the state of life for a lot of people in America because it's the unadulterated truth. I mean like actual truth, the things people think about everyday, hear about, but don't wanna say because they scared of the repercussions or what's going to happen. It's the same things I been spitting but it's me a lil bit more advanced. Just Blaze and Kanye pretty much did my whole album, so you can imagine what the production is like and… Greatest Story Never Told, July thirty-first.

"I will say that there's not been an album in the past 20 years that is going to better then mine. My shit is better than Illmatic.

"I'm not insinuating Ludacris stole my shit, but we met for the first time in August when my record was out and his wasn't, and he told me that he loved my record and he didn't mention about the one he had. He didn't say 'yo I got one just like it.' He didn't say nothing. See what I'm sayin and my record goes 'Young Felcia was only four when she learned how to ride a bike…' His record goes 'Little Erica is only five years old, she trying…' Come on doggy, I call a spade, a spade something smells fishy [laughs]. And you know what's funny I'm glad that he came out with it because it gave my me power at my label. My label didn't want to put a dime behind my record. They were like 'you can't dance to this in the club.' Every fuckin record doesn't have to be club song."

too bad Luda didnt bite Sai, if anything, Luda bit Pac (Brenda's Got a Baby anyone?). But thats hip-hop man you try to take a rappers concept or style and make it your own, if not better.


Sai talkin too much man, thought homie was tryin to come off as deep (like Pac) at one point in time. Him and Papoose need to drop their LP's and save New York/Hip-hop like they say they goin' to do. The bay area has new CD's coming out every damn week from their artist, how come the big hitters in New York can't step up and tell them industry folk get on their grind? They should pull a Prodigy (though I dislike dude) and go both independent and big label, so, if the big label cock blocking yo shit (or whoever is cock blocking) then you can just put out some teaser LPs at least to show you can make a decent LP.

label confirmed July 31, 2007 for Saigon

A major is like a thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings, whereas a minor is pizza and beer once a week for a year. The turkey looks better up front, but the pizza and beer is more consistent.
