Video: Saigon – Free Tru Life
Says director Derek Pike:
The other day I shot the video for Saigon’s “Free Tru Life”, a record that Sai produced (and yes I mean the beat), wrote and recorded himself. The record is a tribute to Tru Life, the one time Roc-A-Fella artist, and close friend of Saigon who is currently locked up. We kept the concept simple using previously shot footage of Tru Life, and incorporated that with a re-enactment of Saigon creating this record in his home studio. Get used to seeing more from us as Saigon and I have been working on a few videos lately. Shouts to Sai, Gerry Mush, and of course the Three/21 Fam.

I mean, there was never an opinion that he would outsell Jay, just that Rae’s album is better, which it is. And I actually really dig BP3.

Pretty nice track & video! Wish Sai would drop that Greatest Story Never Told already though!
September 16th, 2009 at 11:33 am
If Sai dropped the album, it would void the album title. Self-Fullfilling prophecy…too deep.
Change the album title and the album will be released….lol. respect
