People are allying with people who speak against evil because the demonic stench is becoming so prevelant. At age 18 you really arent a man. If you were, why would you promote demonic trash that destroys lives for entertainment. Saigon has been to the abyss, come out and now has a cautionary tale for friends, and frankly friend, we should listen.

Saigon answers Q&A about his new video “Not Like Them”
Q: We see your new video with Styles P all over the place, whose Idea was it to recreate the Black Panther Party Movement?
Saigon: It was my idea but SP was definitely with it.. We been cool for a second and we both think alike and have some similar outlooks on whats needed in today’s society, so I called and told him my idea and he was all for it. Too many videos look exactly the same…some strippers, vixens, a money bag and a fancy car and that’s 98% of the videos out. Wanted to switch it up as I always try to.
Q: Any reason you picked 9/11 to put out such a politically motivated clip?
Saigon: Absolutely, Everybody is so patriotic today because of the tragedy of 9/11 but we forget the tragedies America has committed against us as people. There wouldn’t have been a need for a black panther party if America was all right and just like they claim to be.. What’s the date that we remember our fallen soldiers who died for our people to try to obtain freedom? Where is the memorial for all the people who were lynched or unjustly convicted of a crime because of their skin color? I just wanted to use an American memorial to remember some of the forgotten American people who fought to make this country what it is today. They deserve to be remembered as well, so I did it.
Q: I noticed U ripped an American Flag at the end of the video.. Was that some sort of political statement?
Saigon: (Laughs) No, the flag was already old and ripped. It was just something I thought would look cool .. I don’t hate America, I love America, I just hate some of their policies and politics.
Q: When is your new album due?
Saigon: November 6th….. Election Day. That was also calculated.. I’m running for Change in Hip Hop the same way Obama did.. I think we all agree its time for Hip Hop to GROW… And with growth usually comes change for the better. Its the most important album in Hip Hop right now. A lot of truth on it a lot of people are going to be afraid to swallow.. Its like Greatest Story Never Told with no cut. I really wanted to make a statement and I think I did. Pretty sure of it!

Big Daddy Kane names Saigon as one of his favorite artists
AllHipHop.com: Who are some artists you believe in?
Big Daddy Kane: Most artists I really believe in are mainly underground. As we all know a lot of good music doesn’t make it mainstream, but Saigon and Cory Gunz are some of my favorites. They are true lyricists.

Greatest Story Never Told 2 gets 3 1/2 mics in The Source magazine.
So much for all that talk of Sai aiming for 5 mics for the 2nd album.
with that said here are other albums that got a 3 1/2 mic rating in the past:
Heltah Skeltah - Nocturnal
Brand Nubian - Foundation
Cormega - The Realness
Lox - We Are The Streets
Raekwon - Only Built For Cuban Linx 2
Dead Prez - Lets Get Free
The Source 
The Source
Its the first review of the album by a well known source. The review bigs up songs like "Brownsville Girl" and "Our Babies 2" then goes onto say that album is too preachy and has lackluster beats but that Saigon fans will be satisfied. In due time we'll see.
On another note: I also forgot to add the La the Darkmans first album also got 3 1/2 mics
Casso Dinero
All Star
So is Just doing the bulk of this or no?
he did 4 or 5 joints on this one.
the source is a dead beat magazine with no appeal anymore..fukk em.
