I thought he was the next Nas. He was kinda Nas mixed with 50 Cent almost.

Dude was a beast those first 5 years out of prison, then the album delays and then the quality of music declined. He hasn't been that good for years. Every once in a while he'll pop up with a decent track

But go back and listen to

Sai giddy and Jay Electronic made me realize that Just Blaze is a beast on the boards but is horrible when it comes to pushing and releasing artists carrying his cosign.

While we're having a Saigon thread, can anyone help me find a Saigon song/freestyle that was on hiphopgame circa like 2005? Only bars I can remember are something to the effect of:

Now I done told yall I was the one, nobody believed me
whitey gave me hard time, I did that shyt easy

Can't find it anywhere :yeshrug:

Welcome to saigon was a classic tape
Greatest story never told a classic album...shame what happened with the release
THe moral of the story had a lot of amazing songs. Return of the yardfather had a few as well
I would also get Warning shots for the freestyles and a few songs not on the mixtapes

It's "Saigon Theme" but the full version off the Belly of the Beast mixtape. It's originally on the Gangsta Grillz tape but they cut off the last verse where he says those lines.

Is there anywhere you can find the videos that Just used to have on JBTV from back around 2007 when they were working on GSNT?

Remember having the :gladbron: when he played that snippet of the Jay Z remix of Come on Baby before anyone had known about it. And the video where him and Saigon were debating whether the line should be "come here and I'll show you that I spit on just more then a mic" or "more than just mics" had me :dead:
