The Color Purple
Now I just reviewed Saigon's long awaited album and he has something new out that isn't on there. This joint is called The Color Purple and is an anti-gang song.
Now I love Saigon's point and message and the fact he was a street dude who sees that there is a serious lack of understanding about how people from the hood need to look at one another. However, my biggest problem is that the hook is going to lead to misunderstanding just because, as I said before, Hip-hop isn't as good with these type of messages as we should be. Hopefully the message will not be confused because of that however.
This is more refreshing than seeing someone like Wacka Flocka who is constantly repping for the gang lifestyle, then wondering why violence tends to follow him everywhere he goes.
