Saigon

Saigon is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Roots, Immortal Technique, The Roots, Young Dro and Method Man. Those roots explain a lot about how Saigon arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Papoose, Termanology, Cassidy, Jadakiss and Royce da 5'9", sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Wale and Lecrae, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 34 connections around Saigon, reaching back through Roots and forward to Wale. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
