Saigon gives props to Just Blaze

When Just Blaze, one of the hottest producers in hip hop, began working with Saigon, one of New York's hottest underground rappers, many predicted they would dominate the game. Things took off quickly for the duo, landing a deal with Atlantic Records. But, things stalled from that point on.

For unknown reasons, Atlantic Records continued to delay their first project, Saigon's The Greatest Story Never Told. The album was initially supposed to be released in 2005. However, it was delayed until 2006, later 2007, and then 2008. Tired of waiting, Saigon and Just Blaze left Atlantic Records.

After three years of releasing several mixtapes, Just Blaze has established a deal with e1 Music. Throughout his career, the only person Saigon could count on was Just Blaze. Of course, they have had their ups and downs, but they have remained together throughout the ordeal. Now, six years later, they are preparing for the release of The Greatest Story Never Told.

Saigon has reworked the album plenty of times and it is predicted to be one of the best albums released in a long time. With everything finally falling into place, Saigon is giving credit to the man who helped make all of this possible for him. Recently, Saigon discussed Just Blaze's place in hip hop. Saigon said he is on the same level as the likes of Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. Throughout his career, Just Blaze has created hits for several artists. Eminem's hit single with Lil Wayne, "No Love," was produced by Just Blaze.

While Just Blaze has made plenty of accomplishments in the game, Saigon said he is very humble about all he has done for so many artists.
