Upon getting out of prison, Prodigy immediately released his first book, "My Infamous Life." The book spoke of the hip hop scene, from Prodigy's point of view. Prodigy spoke on everything from Murder Inc. to his feud with Jay-Z.

Nearly everyone mentioned in the book had something negative to say about it. Cadillac Tah, formerly of Murder Inc. posted a rant on Facebook about Prodigy. Ja Rule, on the other hand, laughed it off.

Several others have said Prodigy used his book to snitch on those he does not like. Prodigy said those people must not know the definition of "dry snitching." He went on to say he is no dry snitch, nor can anything in the book land someone time behind bars.

Prodigy said the people who have had negative things to say about the book are coming out to draw attention away from how they were portrayed in the book. The Mobb Deep rapper said the truth has to be told and he did it without the witness stand.

Prodigy has ruffled quite a few feathers with the release of his book, My Infamous Life. Several rappers have called him out over his comments. Among the most angry rappers have been duo Capone-N-Noreaga.

In the book, Prodigy revealed Mobb Deep had a slight beef with CNN. The story goes on to say that their crews got into a fight. When N.O.R.E. heard about what was said, he began dissing Prodigy in the media.

Capone reached out to 50 Cent and told him to stay out of the beef. With things beginning to get carried away, Prodigy cleared things up. He said he never claimed to have beaten anyone up, all he said was that they fought.

Through Twitter, he left a comment for N.O.R.E. and any possible beef was ended when N.O.R.E. responded.

Late in 2007, Saigon and Prodigy got into a fight at a club in New York City. From that point on, there has been nothing but beef between Saigon and Prodigy. In 2008, Prodigy was arrested and sent to prison.

Despite being in prison, Prodigy still managed to throw small shots at Saigon. For the most part, the feud has been ongoing, but Saigon is over it. With his debut album finally released to the public, he is focused on his music.

Ever since Prodigy got out of prison, he has been promoting his book, My Infamous Life. Saigon has read the book and he, much like Cadillac Tah, is not pleased. The Fort Knocks rapper has called him out over some of the statements he made.

Saigon said Prodigy has been trying to bait him into dissing him, even while he was behind bars. Even though he was constantly dissed by Prodigy, Saigon had nothing but positive things to say about him. Despite all of this, when Prodigy came out of prison, he still came out dissing Saigon, saying he had no street power. He revealed Prodigy reached out to him to end the feud, but then dissed him in the media again.
