Saigon Survives Head Stabbing

Friday, January 20, 2006
By: Michael Ivey


SaigonAtlantic Records rapper Saigon was recently stabbed in his temple on 23rd and 9th street in his native New York. Saigon released a statement saying two men wanted his $18,000 chain. "They were probably scheming the whole time," he said. A man he mistook for a fan apparently asked Saigon’s friend, who he describes as "135 lbs. soaking wet", did he sell weed then ripped the chain from his neck. "I took it right back from him and my man knocked him out," he said.

The two proceeded to stomp the man then another man came behind Saigon and stabbed him in the temple. "I started fighting the nigga but I was losing a lot of blood," he recalls. Saigon says he acted like he had a gun and the two ran off, dropping their cell phones in the process. He recovered them. Saigon tried to hail a cab to the hospital because he didn’t want to mess up his car, but his friend eventually drove him to Bellevue Hospital where he was given a blood transfusion and released the next day.

"They said that if I got there later I might not have made it because I lost a lot of blood," he said. Saigon mentioned that Warner Music Group Vice President Kevin Liles called him while he was in the hospital to say he’s "not a regular nigga no more," according to him. He worries about how much of another person’s blood he has, saying, "I just hope that person is as real as me," but is proud to have his chain. "…not that that really matters to me, but nobody is taking nothing from me," he said. "You’ll have to kill me to get my shit." His debut album The Greatest story Never Told is due this year.

Dag homie... See that's exactly why 50 cent walks around with security... Ya'll so called street rappers can front like ya'll don't need security all you want, but in the hood... They will snatch yo chain kid... Trust me unless i got twenty cats with me i wouldn't even walk thru my old hood with an $18,000 anything on... My dudes would rob me just to remind me where i'm at... And honestly they wouldn't be wrong for doing it either...lol that's just reckless homie... But hey if you wanna die over a chain then who am i to stop you... But please saigon don't do that again... That's just reckless... Pure reckless... If you from the hood you should've known that.... Dag rappers get a deal an go crazy...

Saigon has a lot of potential besides rapping...he has a the potential of being a good teacher, but he needs the right information...every time some one gets "tested" as he did is not carnal, you feel me? although it was over a chain, on a spiritual note, saigon has been saying some things that have made many demons angry and upset...you don't need no protection...not 20 homeboys, not guns, not nothing...cause when the lord almighty, black jesus christ says it's your time, believe you me, it's your time, and nothing can stop that! but when your ways please the lord, he'll make your enemies at peace with you, and when you do as he has commanded, he'll have the black heavenly angels there to guide and protect you, in this valley of the shadow of death...hopefully saigon will get word of this reply, and if he does...check out: .theholyconceptionunit the official website of the israelite church of god and jesus christ...

Ok i'm glad saigon is still alive and well. And i agree with him on the "you have to kill me to take my sh*t" i know it sounds kind of stupid, but i dont let anyone take sh*t from me no matter how stupid it sounds. Bigdrew, idiots like you should be cut from the clitoris up.

Saigon is the truth.....from his mixtape sh*t with whoo kid to the sh*t he released as a promo for buying ecko sh*t he spits on point....as 4 this stabbing i dont think them sensitive thugs realized his name in prison was the yard father.....when his album drops its over for a lot of them down south homoz..........
Posted by violentbydesign
Dayem dawg why us down south cats gotta be homoz ? you need to check why da south has took over...mostly because that up north...always gotta watch ya back, dogg eat dogg, sammy da bull, two face, chicken heart, pile o' tricks (politics), snake mentality yall have divided the hip hop power....its called divide and conquer....but yall divided yall dayem self...keep the hate for that south to a minimum....we got ours comming with that clown lil flip causing alot of confusion in the south with his up north ways.
Posted by Kalliope4eva
Your smart kalliope4eva but you lack something. Lets see if i could give you something. Black people had to get away from the south because of that slave, and racist thing your country got going on. So when you say divide and conquer that happened before and is always going to happen. Ny is different its fast paced, things moving faster, alot more people, so you can not compare the south ways and the north. Plus i live down here now so no hating. Ya'll are really much more laid back. Oh and about the article don't like it, dude did what he did and i don't believe it went down like that and it might just be fake.
Posted by lyriccoke
How is running to the lesser of two evils stronger?? they still in america....i'll respect it when someone runs to canada...or africa...and you say up north is fast paced? i understand that....but im a southern cat that happens to talk slow but think fast...keep talking fast and thinking slow....lol. But its all love here coke...thanx for tha' lesson...im never too big to accept that.
Posted by Kalliope4eva
when u go to the hood wit a $18,000 chain theres always the possibilty that u might not leave with that sh*t and F*ck a chain you cant put a price on life.. Burn something n earn something
Posted by zoosun
Yo we were brought here stripped of our culture now that got brothers claming hoods ,dirty south this, east coast that ,west coast this ,thats how these haters keep us divided. Havent we learned anything from the millions more movement kick that coastal sh*t to the curb im from the uni-verse now lets build off that

Hate to bite lil wayne but most are rapper racist, reigon haters....
Posted by Kalliope4eva
Lol i'm sorry but dis n*gga choosin his car over his life, man i would'a jumped off in my whip and pushed a buck-20 down the interstate until i was @ the hospital. . (word son)
Posted by ComminCorrect
Typical n*gga! when n*ggas gonna learn?...n*gga you're bleeding to death!, leave the chain, get in the blasted car and let the hospital glue your blasted head back together!!
Posted by beya
Thats funny. Kallioe4eva for prez. Don't worry about biting almost everybody doing it. Its so true because living up north you wouldn't get to know about the nice south rappers. I had to go to job corps and meet a whole bunch of different people to learn that. Today it is a little better. Almost like the slavery thing, just a little better than back in the days. Too much hating, anybody who is nice should be given their just props. Big up kallio.
Posted by lyriccoke
Only thing i hate is that up north they hear paul wall, chamillionaire, and lil flip and they think they represent our best spitters....sometimes they dont check on da' others...maybe cause some of our lyrical content doesnt matter to yall. But t.i., lil wayne, ludacris, young buck can spit too....all of them can get on track with any up north cat thats sells and rip it with em.....
Posted by Kalliope4eva
And on da low...i think that wayne'll leave some of tha cats yall think are gods heads leaning....on da funny style....that boy is hotter than fish grease.
Posted by Kalliope4eva
Can't wait for that album.

What up , saigon is hot, i just listened to every last one of his tracks he aint lose me on none of them, he got on (my hometown) nyc about rydin the dirty south tip, which is right!!! like he said show them love and all but dont suck no tip or kiss ass!! that is a real m.c. I havent heard a cat like that from nyc in a minute. It was needed because brothers at the crib are not supporting artist like this, we have the power to tell the industry whats hot around our way, but nah we all Bia'ch like and let the industry tell us which sh*t is hot F*ck that, the industry can eat a tip, and to these fake ass rappers in nyc you can eat another one. Sai when you come out i am coppin your joint, you got my support brotha!!!laurelton queenz stand up!!!!!!!!

Posted by Ruffrider339
What i don't get, and this is coming from a saigon fan, is how did a let a mutha F*cka get behind him to begin with, if there's some heat goin down in any situation, you gotta keep your F*ck*n eyes open.

I love my brother saigon, and i understand not just letting someone just take something from you. But i just read an article wherein saigon said that materialism doesn't rule him, or something to that effect, which i believe when i listen to the topics he rhymes about. So why does he feel the need to wear an $18,000 chain in the hood, or anywhere, when he knows that such jewels are generally worn by those of us who have been taught for so long that we're worthless that they believe it. They wear them because they feel that they themselves are nothing, but if they add a necklace made of platinum, then suddenly they become platinum. And then they exalt themselves above their brethren, whom they still deem as nothing, who don't have such shiny necklaces. I realize that i'm a life worth far more than all the jewels in the world. That said, i think you can all guess how i would choose if faced with a life-or-chain situation. Coming where he's coming from, i think saigon wants to change, but is torn between growing up, versus holding on to some things from his past that, in some undeveloped minds, classifies his as venerable.

There is no such thing as fish grease kalliope4eva and lil wayne is not a good rapper. Im a suburban white kid and even i know his lyrics aint sh*t compared to ny rappers like wu tang or mobb deep.
