Saigon recently spoke to MTV News about his up-coming album The Greatest Story Never Told and his new single "Come On Baby".

"Yeah, Jay's on my album. He's on the remix to the single, he aired it out. I still gotta go back and rewrite my verse," said Saigon. "He really does the Rain Man thing, he doesn't sit down and write," he continued. "For mad years, I was like, 'He's too clever, I don't believe he don't write [lyrics] down. He's too on point.' But with this beat, when he came to record to it, he never heard the beat before and his rhyme went so perfect with the beat. I was like he couldn't have wrote this at home, he couldn't have had this in the stash. Maybe this dude do got more brain cells than everybody else. I tell him all the time, 'You an alien, man.' "

Saigon also said there would be a video coming soon for "Come On Baby" and he hopes to do a Rock influenced treatment for the song due to its heavier sound.

"Being that it's rock-influenced, I wanna get a rock band. Remember [Run-DMC's] 'Walk This Way'? I wanted to do it just like that," he explained of a treatment he has in his head. "Me and Just Blaze in one side of the studio, doing some rap stuff, they doing their rock stuff [on another side], then we banging on the wall. We wanna u se 'Walk This Way' as sort of like a blueprint. The record is real rock-influenced, let's incorporate that into the video, instead of us just being in the club. "
