Saigon- The Greatest Story Never Told


So it took Saigon about 6 years to get this album out. It literally could of been The Greatest Story Never Told. Now most of the hype for Saigon has died down until recent month when he started to releases a load of tracks. Most people will only remember him as the rapper Turtle from Entourage used to manage. The album starts off with a track featuring Fatman Scoop. The track is actually good expect for the fact that Fatman Scoop needs to shut the fuck up, that guy is annoying.

'Come On Baby' produced by Just Blaze is probably recognized by most people since it was actually released as a single about 3 years ago. The song still goes pretty hard.
'Bring Me Down pt. 2' really shows why there was so much hype for Saigon. The song is just overall good. Tracks like 'Clap' 'Better Way' and 'Its Alright' seem to be very personal songs and make the album real.

Some of the features on the album include Q-Tip, Faith Evans, Devin The Dude, Bun B, Black Thought. Production was handled mainly by Just Blaze though Kanye is featured also.

Overall the album is pretty good. It is already being compared to the debut albums of 50 Cent and Game and even though I don't think it's on that level The Greatest Story Never Told is pretty fucking good.
