The first Asian rapper. Jin "Learn chinese" (13)
The first Asian rapper within the mainstream of hip hop had surfaced several years ago. He won numerous rap battles on BET's rap battles then was signed to Ruff riders by DMX and he was a great lyrasis but people really brought into his swagger as a NYC rapper and the very first American hip hop mainstream rapper. His first single "learn Chinese" can be seen on YouTube. I was unable to post the video But if you search him you can hear the single. I liked him then. Umm now He is a christian rapper I haven't heard to much of his recent music but I'm sure just because his musical content has changed his talent just evolved. I like Jin. Hope you take the time to look him up as well.
