Saigon

Now unless you're really into the underground scene or from New York you're probably not yet up on rapper Saigon...oh right...or unless you're a fan of the hit HBO Show, "Entourage".

Saigon is an extremely charismatic and talented rapper who made small waves with a few mixtape releases in his homestate of New York. This soon caught the attention of producer Just Blaze who soon signed him to Fort Knocks/Hip Hop Since 1978/Atlantic Records. His first major-label release, tentatively titled "The Greatest Story Never Told" is set to be released sometime in 2006.

Now back to the show "Entourage" (By the way this show is hilarious and I highly recommend it).

In late August 2005 a few connections and a pinch of good fortune got Saigon's name was passed along to the producers of the show who were looking for a real-life up-and-coming rapper to play the role of...yes, an up-and-coming rapper.

After hearing Saigon they reportedly loved his charisma and put him on the show.

Ironically while on the show Saigon is slated to play the continued role of a rapper who will rise to fame, in reality the real life rapper Saigon is hoping to play precisely the same role.

2006 was an interesting year but 2007 didn't live up to expectations it seems.

After Atlantic Records put his album on hold for yet another year a frustrated Saigon ended up announcing his retirement via his MySpace blog. For better or worse, it was all taken back not too long after.

The rapper Saigon is without a doubt an amazing talent. The person, however is something else, to say the least. His retirement announcement came just days after what seemed to be a drunken breakdown at a radio station where he severly cursed out a radio personality and told her "I hate you" on air! I must say, that hilarious moment was a true display of raw hate. This all happened because she was apparently trying to be cute and sarcastically ask touchy questions about in incident Saigon had with Prodigy of Mobb Deep weeks earlier. In that incident Saigon punched Prodigy in the face on stage while being surrounded by Mobb Deep's crew. In the commotion Saigon fled with the help of his one bodyguard.

Saigon is currently off of Atlantic Records and is rumored to be working a new deal with Jay-Z. Saigon's album, The Greatest Story Never Told  is scheduled for release September, 2008.
