Sai-Giddy takes some time off of Entourage to hook up with Just Bleezy on this NYC banger called “Don’t Do That”. Everyone has been asking me where the hell is Saigon. I know I’ve wondered the same thing. Also wondering was the NY Post, Eskay and everyone else who’s ever had a copy of The Yardfather or Warning Shots. And if you like this one, you’re going to be very “happy” with the next single. In the meantime, enjoy and drop your opinion.
Saigon “Don’t Do That” (Produced by Just Blaze)

    THEY’RE (JUST & SAI)R BETTER THAN THIS!

  • suckitmarshall

    his performance on Entourage was better than this.

  • http://www.myspace.com/geoffdilkes G Off

    Nice… this has some crossover appeal, but is still hard.

  • Rome

    This is gonna save New York?!

  • goose

    Sai is so much better than this. I am holding out hope he can do more, the other young guys are on his ass

  • http://www.myspace.com/ohsospectacular Oh!

    tha hooks catchy. i can dig it

  • http://www.myspace.com/therapistmusic Therapist

    hmmm… i’m not going to let this affect my hopes for Sai…

  • http://myspace.com/tonechop tone chop

    saigon is fire and just blaze is sick with the beats!what a combination this shit is crazy!this that new york shit right here!

  • DW85

    >>>his performance on Entourage was better than this.

    Could have said it better

  • T-Boye

    Sai’s only 1 hit away from bringin’ NY back to prominice

  • Dneroda1

    its iight i’ve heard better from sai

  • http://WWW.MYSPACE.COM/MARCUSGULLIE GuLLie

    ITS …..EHHHHHHH..SUSPECT

  • suckitmarshall

    fair play, DW85.

    Saigon’s performance on this record is only slightly worse than his performance on Entourage, which, itself, was only slightly better than Nas’s performance in Belly. “Let’s go to Africa, Shorty!”

    it’s aight from 1-10 it’s like a 6.8

  • haha@suckamore

    ughh who a&r’ed this mess… oohh yeah i forgot. this definitely gonna make u famous.. just for the wrong reasons

  • Donnet

    i honestly don’t think sai does wack joints but, i’ve heard better from him..his lyrics are on point like always but, maybe his flow could have been a lil more..still, thanks sai for standing up for nyc!

  • Mingemasher

    Who is the douche that gave Suckamore a job?????? Craig? Caren? Gee? Fuck man this game is funny….

  • The Voice of Red Hook

    Sai bringin New York back is laughable by the way were did new york go cuz im still here an it didnt get swept out from under my feet.

  • CAMRUNFRMRUCKA

    this nigga is highly anticipated…hopefully he will cure us of the overstauration frm south. he reminds me of wen 50 was hungry comin up….cant wait for him and Lupe. i wonda which will be betta…

  • http://MYSPACE.COMHIS_LADY_4EVER ROSE GOLD

    SAIGON MUISC IS ALWAYS FIYAH…..
    THIS COMBO WILL TAKE DAT STREETS KEEP DOIN WAT U DO GITTY U ALREADY KNOW DEY NOT READY…..LOL…..
    ABANDONED NATION…….AYE AYE AYE

  • kali

  • http://www.myspace.com/rocksolidbeats R.S_2_DEF

    BLAZE is ill all usual…but over all i give it one word …..

    booooooo

  • http://www.myspace.com/ampsproductions A

    Sick this shit is sick, fuck all the other boi talking shit. Do we get a new tape this week?

  • Mally

    Saigon, Papoose, and Lupe are the leaders of the new school. Hip Hop is Edutainment. Support to the real and death to the fakers.

  • http://www.myspace.com/paidmasons PEOPLE$

    Truth be told, this isn’t as fire, nor does it hold the crossover appeal of, say, “Razah Song” with Razah or some of the joints of “Warning Shots,” but, it is still better than 95% of what’s getting airplay these days, so, as a buzz/street single before the true ‘first’ single, this is certainly a good look. Uno.

  • http://www.myspace.com/theanticorp RoxStar

    “Saigon, Papoose, and Lupe are the leaders of the new school”

    U SHOULD BE BANNED FROM ALL HIP HOP RELATED EVENTS… SAIGON’S GOOD AND I LIKE PAPOOSE, BUT WILL THEY MAKE A REAL IMPACT???

  • http://www.trendsettazinc.com DJ Main Event

    hmmm…. it would work on a mixtape… but an album? not a go from what im hearing… its not bad but its not EPIC like a Saigon joint from the ALBUM should be. just my 2 cents.

  • Black London………..

    3/5

  • rip round’n rock

    good to hear new saigon music… the buzz is back again, i know this is xxl, but he’s on the cover of the new scratch magazine, and the feature story is real good.

    saigon is my favorite rapper right now

  • Noopsta

    Look Niggaz and Bithches, STOP HATING and wake yo fuckin ass up. This is real shit and ya’ll just acting up. If u wanna test this nigga listen to his joint “Letter P” and Y’all find out Who can spit some real shit.

  • >>>>>RoC

    SAIGON + JUST BLAZE = BANGERZ and REAL HIPHOP

  • >>>>>RoC

    FUCC OTHER NIGGAZ HATIN ON SAIGON…..wat ya listen 2…..D4L??…???…….watz better right now…NUTTIN…..

  • haha@suckamore

    i am a fan of sai but this aint gonna win for him. Letter P and Favorite Things prove he can murder beats. This proves he got some yes men around him if they think this is hot. Sai needs to stick to his real people and not let these industry herbs homogenize him

  • KING OF ROCHESTER,NY

    NY RAP DON’T NEED TO BE SAVE CAUSE THEY ALWAYS GOT THE TOP SELLERS OF THE YEAR AND THEY HAVE THE BEST ARTIST COLLECTIVELY. ITS JUST NIGGAS LIKE DANCIN NOW THATS ALL

  • http://www.twelvegauge.biz MIGSakaSUPREMEBEING

    this is obviously just a taste and not one rapper out has had a full album of bangers. rather bop to this lite than not feel it at all. just/sai u already know fightklub/beatklub/twelve gauge media.

  • big family

    not a single, but better than most of NY radio playlist.

  • The Bizness

    this aint about shit… NYC is over musically!!!! With a huge profile on ENTOURAGE, this is what u drop??? A lackluster Just Blaze beat… Saigon aint even talkin about shit… YOUNG HOOTIE is the future mu’fuckaz

  • qwtrqtwy

    does anybody still care about this jig?

  • http://myspace.com/ombiant mr.ombiant

    I was always wondering what was all the hype behind dude…This just causes me to keep wondering. In my opinion, a lot of niggas are put on a pedestal due to the lack of talent in the game right now…This may be the case here.

    Also…do you guys really think he is gonna make an impression in the game…Come on Chris…Chris…Come on Chris…Chris come on

  • swagger

    this is an aight track, nothing special, more mixtape material than an album. i mean this dons’t exactly makes me anxious for the album or anything, hoepfully its not the official single cuz i cant see it generating that much buzz

  • rip round’n rock

    this is supposedly from the upcomming Entourage Soundtrack

  • Patricia “Slore” Elliott

    >>> Who is the douche that gave Suckamore a job?????? Craig? Caren? Gee? Fuck man this game is funny…

    i think it was mike caren…sam “i love fags” riback put in a good word…just proves my point tho…you lick enough ass in this industry and mountains will move…with that said this song is blah…

  • Truth Seeker

    You guys are idiots, this is not the official single, this shitt is going to be on the Entourage Soundtrack, and the joint is fire too. And I bet you guys dont even know what or who he is talking about in this track, dumb idiots just focus on the beat and the hook, man it’s funny how the industry dumbed down alot of people with that candy shitt.

  • Rich Bitch

    You have got to be joking right? This sounds like
    an old throw away track from his first mixtape,
    wow I love Saigon and thought he could bring ny
    back but after he’s been ghost for a minute he
    drops this weak joint! lmao
    The Greatest Story That Will Never Be Told or Heard

    Its a damn shame..as a fan after this joint I’m not
    even going to be checking for him no more and I was
    anticipated before I heard this shit

  • AirlineGeneral

    Yo my nigga Saigon does it again with a great banger I can’t wait for the album The Greatest Story Never Told…..I need to get that DVD too

  • Daddy B

    I’ll make sure to do my homework on Saigon, but Papoose, Jae Millz, Gravy, Shells Burner and Cashmere are bringing true fire. Buy any one of their mixtapes and you won’t be disappointed. Guaranteed.

  • Blaq Thought

    Good not Great like Yardfather freestyle, Get My Nut, Reprecussions and Shot In the Booty. Sai needs to stick to that straight up Hip Hop he’s been doing. The robbery attempt must have caused him to lighten up alittle. He is one of the few new New Yorker emcees that seems like he can make consistant songs (not just freestyles). NY don’t need to be brought back cause it ain’t go nowhere.

    Dawg, you aren’t an A&R..Your an idiot pushing your own projects! Try climbing off the PC and find a Southern artist that spits flames instead of 50′s nickle-back (aka Siagon).

  • http://www.myspace.com/southpeezy Southpeezy

    eeeh…this is just aight, sai is too raw to be putting out stuff like this…is this old?
