Title: Re: Saigon - Greatest Story Never Told (Discussion)
Post by: DPG4Life on February 14, 2011, 03:11:19 AM
its great! 4.0 or 4.5 outta 5....

but im very sure it couldve been better at another time... tracks come from so many different years, that it feels like a sampler... the mixing is very different, doesnt feel like being made in one run... and the mastering failed also. its not on par with modern masterpiece albums...

dont ghet me wrong, im just saying, there was way more potential! .... BUT STILL.. saigon is fucking great! and the album is outstanding to the other shit! most definately. ill buy a copy for sure!

been a fan ever since 50cent vs. saigon came out..

and i hope this album pushs hims omehow to get himslef in a better position that he can release a proper album! with the whole machinery behind him

The album sounds outdated. He also gets out shined by Just Blaze and his hook game is kinda average. I guess the expectations after all these years got the best of me....

Post by: MistaNova on February 16, 2011, 06:19:22 AM
Took a listen and TBH this album is kind of a let-down. Probably because I was expecting this album to sound like an authentic grimey New York album with Saigon spitting heat over beats by the likes of DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Large Pro, RZA and 9th Wonder. IMO the best track on this album is Bring Me Down Pt. 2, but I'll give it a few more spins and try to get it to grow on me. Still gonna pick up a copy to support Saigon though.
Title: Re: Saigon - Greatest Story Never Told (Discussion)
Post by: Portugoal on February 16, 2011, 01:12:38 PM
The album is a big, big letdown for me. It's not wack, but I expected Saigon to spit over hard Just Blaze beats with sampled & classy hooks.

Agreed. I feel like the replay value will be huge on this and more so, it's not just lackluster content led by amazing Just Blaze production. Saigon has some fucking content to him. I don't know we'll see how it stands up to repeat listenings but right now, I'm very impressed. And after "Warning Shots 2", I was a little nervous but this was the kind of album that hip-hop needed.

And for people who want that grimey NY shit, just pop in that first "Warning Shots".

You listen to Dipset so no surprise there. Anyways this shit is hot and really well put together. Great content and production and most importantly its a full LP instead of that 10-12 song 45-50min fake ass LP crap all these rappers keep putting out. Exactly how a hip hop album should be nowadays. The length will give it good replay value somethin rare nowadays. Right now I give it a 9/10 but that rating will probably increase. Definitely gonna cop this. 
Title: Re: Saigon - Greatest Story Never Told (Discussion)
Post by: Action! on February 22, 2011, 05:55:15 AM
10 to 12 tracks is an album., usually more concept driven.  Is illmatic not an album?  12 to 16 tracks is also an album, with lots of content though it does not mean all is necessary quality.

Post by: SCREWFACE on February 23, 2011, 10:48:27 AM
one of the biggest problems in hip hop for the past x number of years has been bloated 18 track albums with too much filler so that is a completely stupid fucking opinion to have.

You shouldn't even throw around the term classic until atleast a couple of years after the album has come out, if it's still brough up in conversation and sounds fresh then, then I'd consider giving it that term. It is a very very solid album, and I believe could definitely be a future classic, however it all depends on how the album ages with time

Im just referring to the Preacher version that was on some DJ Neptune mixtape, clearly the og version since i heard the mixtape came out in 05, if you dont got it ill send you it. And for invitation, im just going off on that shitty version thaty leaked (might be on youtube), just blazed had to remake the beats for the version he put out.
Title: Re: Saigon - Greatest Story Never Told (Discussion)
Post by: Action! on February 23, 2011, 10:08:31 PM
Yo, I just read Blaze said that was one of the first tracks him & Sai made.  The og preacher as you put it is actually a freestyle track they cut together.  The album was always different then the one you're talking about and did make the final cut.  I just peeped Preacher "og" and it's dope.

The Invitation, og, sounds like it had live instrumentation more in tune with come on baby and a slightly faster energetic beat.\\

What happened to the original?
Title: Re: Saigon - Greatest Story Never Told (Discussion)
Post by: Tha Crip on February 24, 2011, 07:59:40 AM
I guess whoever's in charge of clearing the samples couldn't clear em in time or at all, so instead of scrapping the song entirely, Just Blaze re-made the beat to what we got now  8)

For me, some albums are more conceptually driven so I'll bump it a couple of times and then move on.  Tracks are dope in how they fit into the concept of the album.  It's a story.  This album is heavily a themed album so it's not like a 50 album where there's a collection of tracks.  It's more like Reakwon's Only Built For Cuban Linx 2. 

I know what Cham's saying but I think having that perspective when you listen to some music is very limiting.  On the other hand, I also understand a part of making great music is playability. 

As for my i-pod, I move whole albums over so I can attempt to see the artist vision as a whole and not just.  I definitely, fall for certain tracks right away but I'm always impressed by the tracks that don't usually grab me now but later on after a couple of burns.

Yeah, you would get bored of bumping them over & over again. But not individual songs.

For example, "MMLP" & "Padded Room". I can get bored or tired of listening to them as a whole, but no songs off either of those albums get boring to the point I don't want to hear them anymore. I haven't bumped "Padded Room" in a while, but I know the next time I do, I'll want to hear every song.

Im sorry but I cant fuck wit those short albums. You say long albums have filler but at least thats more acceptable than some of these 10-12 track albums that have filler im not gonna spend 17 dollars for a 11 track album of which 2 songs might be wack and then 1 or 2 might be a little bs intro or outro. I want my moneys worth.

Just listened to the album yesterday at the gym, and i was blown away. It's the first hiphop album that hit me hard all the way through in awhile. Definately gonna buy it.

Is this the release everyone was talkin about for so long? If so did it live up to its expectations? The 2 songs i heard were nothing special

Even for my absolute favorite albums I would get bored bumping them over and over again. I've gotta have some variety.
some music is timeless so you don't get tired of it because it will alwways stand the test of time. that's like someone saying they're are tired of hearing a temptations album or a commodores album.

Yeah, you would get bored of bumping them over & over again. But not individual songs.

For example, "MMLP" & "Padded Room". I can get bored or tired of listening to them as a whole, but no songs off either of those albums get boring to the point I don't want to hear them anymore. I haven't bumped "Padded Room" in a while, but I know the next time I do, I'll want to hear every song.

I disagree. If you listened to any song over and over again, eventually you'll get tired of it. The key is variety. I have songs I'll always want listen to, but that's because I don't listen to the same song 247

If that was all I listened to for an entire week, yes I would get tired of it. Otherwise why would I even bother listening to new music? If that were the case I should just only listen to my favorite album over and over again.

well if someone listened to a cd all week and you're tired of it. it's not the cd's fault. change your playlist. that's why there's more than one cd to choose from.

"Bring Me Down Pt. II"
"The Greatest Story Never Told"
"Clap"
"It's Alright"
"Believe It"

I'd say these joints are the ones I bump the most still... still a very dope album

Still in my rotation. 2011 has actually been a fairly dope year for music, in my opinion.
