The lyrics take you on a bike ride through Saigon, where the narrator encounters young girls who, despite their cheerful appearances, carry unseen burdens. This juxtaposition of joy and sorrow is palpable, masterfully captured through Gianfranco’s “Giazz” melodies, which are as colorful and eclectic as the city itself. It is a rich soundscape brimming with vitality, reminiscent of the 70’s influences yet undeniably contemporary, delivering a nostalgic touch that heightens the song’s emotional resonance.
“SAIGON” demonstrates Gianfranco GFN’s adeptness in seamlessly melding musical genres, exuding a retro yet distinctly modern sound. It’s a masterclass that prompts repeated listening, unveiling new intricacies with each iteration and conveying a heartfelt narrative.

BluntBrad Jr.’s new single, “It’s All Good,” sounds like a steady handshake and a deep breath. It’s warm, honest, and not trying to be cool.
