Saigon’s Debut Pushed Back, Yet ‘Certified Classic’

SaigonSaigon’s album title, “The Greatest Story Never Told,” may be self-fulfilling prophecy. According to the rapper’s MySpace page, its release date is being pushed back yet again.

“Well I know a lot of y’all have been waiting to know what’s going on with my album, and the release dates and all of that,” posted Saigon, whose official debut was initially slated for last year.

“Unfortunately I don’t have a street date to give you for two reasons. The first because I am just now completing [it], secondly because I don’t wanna give a date and keep getting my shit pushed back because of label politricks.”

Reportedly the album was slated to drop this November on Atlantic Records via Fort Knox Entertainment, founded by producer Just Blaze. Now it’s not certain when the LP will ever hit stores.

Despite the setback, Saigon claims his forthcoming album is a “certified classic, my best rhymes and Just Blaze’s best beats,” and he urged fans to check out his latest street single 'Pain In My Life'.

“There is a lot of pressure when you have one of the most anticipated albums in the whole world,” he added. “But I think I delivered. Trust and believe me.”

Mark my words him and pap are going to flop these guys are clowns they dont know how to make songs you would have a better shot if you were that clown they call graph.... jumpoff....boing!!!! what clowns you cant certify your own album a classic your biased you idiot. Saigon prolly wont even go gold remember i said it if you wanna bring ny back you cant say it and sound like ny you have to reinvent yourself and be unexpected. The expectations are too high he cant deliver and neither can papoose.

Damn... I was looking forward to this joint... I hear the naysayers, but i think saigon will do big things in terms of numbers, but even more importantly in terms of social commentary...

Since when did record sales ever mean skills? then mc hammer must be the best rapper of all-time. Illmatic & reasonable doubt werent big hits on the charts, but they're still classics.

I, got ahold of a saigon mixtape and never put the sh*t down. When catz ask me now who's my favorite rapper i ,have to say saigon know question. And he's really what the game need's right now far as eastcoast rap is concerned. And the kid is not stupid at all ,you can tell just by listening to some of his songz. I can't wait till he dropz.

Saigon is the new rakim. He has a respect for the past that is unmearsurable. Like he said he is gonna change the game. He is already a true hip hop icon, because he has all of us talking about his album that hasn't dropped yet. Saigon will be mentioned with the greatest of all time. Check out pop quiz, u wanna hear a diss record listen to pop quiz.
