It's all about Guerilla Black. http://governmentnames.blogspot.com/2004/09/its-not-rebirth-or-reincarnation-it.html

But yeah, Game has a much better chance of blowing up being on Aftermath. Kind of stupid that he's beefing with Yukmouth now tho, i mean at least ride on someone people know like um Budden.

Guerilla Black = a career based on looking and sounding like Biggie. Haven't we been here before?

Game's going to blow proper large.

Yeah but Game's boring and Guerilla Black's nice. And Shyne don't sound like Biggie anymore and never even looked like him anyway.

Saigon - THIS is the next NYC rapper to blow.

It's better than "Love Machine", put it that way.

Game will blow first - Saigon ain't gonna have his album out until next year.

He'll be on the cover of The Source though - he's sort of managed by one of their senior staff.

best Game verse I've heard so far is the freestyle where he's weirdly paired with Talib and Black Thought. all in all I'm not sold on him yet, though.

also I'm kind of suspicious of his whole induction into G-Unit, since he hasn't even done that many songs with those guys. it's like when Dre signed Daz and Kurupt, they weren't really tight with Snoop, but he needed a way to market them and so he slapped Snoop's name on the project and called them Tha Dogg Pound. I wouldn't be surprised if Dre came up with the same scheme after signing Game.

"Since the west coast fell off the streets is watching/The west coast never fell off - I was asleep in Compton." Heat!

The track with Lil Flip and Cassidy is hotness too.

Let Eminem sign Immortal Technique and see what happens.

OTM

is that something that's actually been rumored? wow, that'd be bizarre.

― Al (sitcom), Saturday, 18 September 2004 22:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I still have high hopes for Saigon...isn't he supposed to be signing with a big label?

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Saturday, 18 September 2004 22:35 (twenty-one years ago)

is that something that's actually been rumored?

Not that I'm aware of, but I think it might just work.

― JoB (JoB), Saturday, 18 September 2004 23:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I know he's been talking to some majors, though. anything's possible.

― Al (sitcom), Saturday, 18 September 2004 23:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Saigon = what the streets wants. He's the truth.

three months pass...

the Chapelle sketch "turn my head phones up" sort of sums up the suspicion one should have of any rapper promoted partially on the basis of his bullet wounds. And Game does say "turn me up in the headphones a little" at the beginning of "my confession." i like the way he raps though, and his lyrics. and his affiliation with the Eazy dynasty produces lovely things.
