Jin the MC...the asian Eminem?

I have to admit one thing. Jin is the best if not one of the best Freestylers i have heard. Just check out some of his battles on apartment106. If you missed it dl it off Kazaa. Some of his shit is nuts. Is his cd going to be a flop or a bestseller?

i think it'll flop...
i've had it on my computer for a couple weeks now, and all i really enjoy are a couple of the freestyles and maybe that track he did with wyclef... the rest of the tracks are just fucken goofy...

but then again, eminem's first couple albums were cheezy fucken rap beats, and now look at him. alot of jin's tracks are pretty much the same brand of cheeze... jin's pretty much trying to do the same thing for asian people as eminem did with white people. so who knows... are there enough chinese people out there who enjoy listening to someone rap about slanted eyes and wontons?

he's definately an awesome freestyler. but i doubt that'll be enough to sell his albums.

k altho i am a huge jin supporter, its gonna flop.....

for these reasons alone
#1 - he's a freestyler not a lyricist..........her has to grow to express himself rather than just spittin lines
#2 - its his 1st album, so he basically doesnt have too much input into developing beats and what not
#3 - cuz he signed with ruff ryders.........yeah whatever dmx is cool.....but i mean can u imagine if he had the time to grow and had like the neptunes or timbaland producing his beats? damn.....

hasnt his cd been out for a while now? i remember hearing about this guy last year and he already had a cd out... maybe it wasnt the new one under ruff ryders

anyways, the new one under ruff ryders might flop but his future ones might be pretty good... he might be a freestyler but its only a matter of time before he'll grow into a lyricist (like what adam said)

oh and another thing, its too bad hes signed under ruff ryders because their beats suck ass

ruff ryder beatz are awesome dmx is the shit! hahaha


but yeah it depends on what you're gonna call success and flop. the guys pretty young and hes got the support of the HUGE asian american (and canadian) communities. i'm sure he'll be able to pocket quite a bit of money but hes not gonna be as big as eminem is right now. i say sucess. hes not gonna go bankrupt

For most part. I would agree with a lot of you. Jin is a freestyler and could you imagine what he would have done with the likes of 50 cent , Dre, Eminem behind his back. His beats would be nuts. Even tho the 50 cent cd has been out for a while i'm still bouncing to his beats. Just imagine what Jin would be able to accomplish if he was with Dre and company. Man oh man it would be off the hook.

No disrespect to DMX or anything but ruff ryders beats don't really go with Jin...he needs Dre to be way up there.
