Warning Shots 2 [PA]

Performer: Saigon
Producer: Just Blaze
Distributor: E1 Entertainment

Notes: Saigon opens his 2009 record, WARNING SHOTS 2, with the melancholy "Nothing Comes Easy." The Brooklyn rapper has a right to be frustrated; sidetracked by a seven-year prison sentence, Saigon emerged ready to rhyme, rather quickly caught the ears of Atlantic Records and recorded THE GREATEST STORY NEVER TOLD, slated for 2005 release. Four years later, the story still had yet to be told, as the record was tied up in major label red-tape. Barely deterred, he channeled his pent-up rage into his music. While ostensibly a follow-up to a 2001 street release, this album is more Saigon's heavily-polished introduction to a wider audience. While his record's topics are far from original, Saigon possesses an acrobatic wit and when his passion takes hold, as on "Fatherhood [Rayne Dior]," his ode to his one-year old daughter, something beautiful happens.
