“I did this album because I loved the energy of 2023, with the 50th Anniversary of Hip Hop, the celebrations, and I didn’t want it to stop there” Saigon proclaimed. “Watching the foundation of this culture get their flowers was a beautiful thing. I wanted to show my personal appreciation by creating a project that had most of my influences and personal heroes on it.”
“Doing The Jordan Era album with Saigon and all of these legends has been such a dope and inspirational journey. It’s like the album I dreamt of doing as a teenager back in the day” Fredro adds. “To be able to drop this project on such a legendary hip-hop label as Payday Records, just makes it even more real and authentic. This album was made by and for all people celebrating the golden era of Hip-Hop and its trailblazers.”
