Saigon Helps The Homeless
Saigon recently offered a helping hand to the Bowery Mission homeless shelter in New York City.

Saigon jumped in to help distribute blankets to those less fortunate and keep them warm from the harsh winter temperatures affecting NYC this year.

"Me and some friends of mine, the Ahuja's that own a garment manufacturing company, took to the very cold streets of NYC over these past couple of nights to hand out warm blankets to help the homeless stay warm," commented Saigon. "We covered Port Authority, Penn Station and the Bowery Mission Homeless shelter handing out over a hundred blankets. I did it because I had a little down time after finishing up my album and my friends, the Aluhja's, had some extra blankets so we decided to go hand them out to the homeless. If we can prevent one person from freezing to death out there on the streets, that makes everything worth it. I wish more hip-hop artists would step up and help give something back to their communities. If everyone used the power they have to lend a helping hand, hopefully it would inspire others to do the same." more on this story

Sugar Hill Records has announced the March 29th release of Brian Wright's House on Fire.

While this is the first label release from the Waco, TX native, he has built a firm base of fans within and beyond the music industry with two previous releases and tireless touring in the US and Europe.
