Stat Quo Gets Pushed Back, Saigon Released On $1500 Bail

by JOKESTA

FRIDAY AUGUST 24, 2007

Stat Quo Gets Pushed Back

Atlanta rapper Stat Quo’s Shady/Aftermath debut “Statlanta” has been pushed back from an August 28 release to sometime in October.

No word yet as to why the album has been rescheduled.

Proudction on “Statlanta” will be handled by Eminem, Dr. Dre, Three 6 Mafia, Marc Batson and more. The album features guest appearances by Dr. Dre, Eminem, Scarface, and Devin The Dude amongst others.

The album is currently being led by two singles, “Here We Go” and “We Get Higher.”

Saigon Released On $1500 Bail

New York rapper Saigon was released on $1500 bail after cops found a gravity knife during a traffic stop.

Police stopped the rapper for a traffic violation near 11th Avenue and W. 29th Street in Manhattan around 1:30 am.

When officers searched his vehicle, they uncovered the gravity knife. He was charged with weapons possession.

“This is another example of New York’s finest targeting a member of the rap and entertainment industry,” Saigon’s Attorney Scott Leemon told AllHipHop.

“The car that Saigon was driving was not owned by him. More importantly, the small pocket knife was found in a console in the car, not on his possession.”

Saigon was released on $1500 bail and is due back in court on December 5.

“I am hoping after further investigation this will be another example of a rapper being wrongfully arrested,” Leemon continued.

I agree, along with Papoose, Saigon, and others that people claim are so nice... Joe Buddens... when's his next album droppin'? I DON'T CARE ABOUT MIXTAPES... ANYBODY CAN BE NICE ON THE AND-1 MIXTAPE .. Well I take that back, anyone CAN'T be nice on the And-1 Mixtape, THEM DUDES ARE NASTY! But put them in the league... and it's a different story... There's RULES... And you can't just dribble and dazzle all day... you got 24 secs to put the ball in the basket.

So eff mixtapes... They serve their purpose but like A.I. said, "We talkin' bout practice man. Practice. We talkin' bout practice. We not talkin' bout the game. We talkin' bout practice, man."

That's how I feel about mixtapes. So y'all can say that Lil' Wayne, and Joe Buddens, and Pap, and Saigon are nasty on mixtapes all y'all want. But it's all about that album. And, the next album, and the next, ala, Nas and Jay who have been uber-consistent for YEARS, not ten minutes.

I think mixtape artist like papoose,Joe Budden and Saigon mixtapes are better than most albums, but the radio stations only will play commercial type songs.
