INTERVIEW: Saigon

Loopholes Of The Game 

Saigon has always been a misfit. Ever since he first stepped onto the scene, he has been one of the few voices in hip hop able to accurately and unapologetically criticize the industry from within. So many rappers claim to be keeping it real while simultaneously sacrificing their individuality and integrity to the whims of their slave-driving record labels.

With everybody missing Murs or Little Brother jumping over these tracks, other rappers can and will continue to make 9th’s solo a thing of beauty. Dream Merchant Vol. 2, which will be released on Oct 9 through Six Hole/Hall of Justus Records. Royce 5’ 9,” rhymes a Brokeback joke in an otherwise applause worthy verse while Naeledge from Kidz In The Hall sounds just as dope over a Ninf beat that he does over the ones were used to hearin’ him over from Double O.
