Is it a prerequisite that you need to be shot at before having rapper street cred? Rising Asian rapper,
Jin, was involved in a Chinatown shooting yesterday. The Post reports that Jin and another rapper were arguing at a new nightclub at 32 Mulberry St., Yellow. Jin's friend, Christopher Louie, stepped in and was shot by the other rapper's .40 caliber gun; Jin was unharmed. Rumors are that the other rapper, part of the "Ghost Shadows" gang, was jealous of Jin's success of late, including an MTV tour. Well, until he's shot 9 times, we can't begin to speculate on Jin's success or music, but the Post notes, "The 21-year-old star has already won rapping competitions where, like white Eminem before him, he has turned taunts about his ethnicity into his own rap disses." [Via Adam]
A club named Yellow, eh? Gothamist would pick Yellow over Suzie Wong's anyday, because at least Yellow seems clever in that overall stupid ironic way. And is it wrong to like the Coldplay song, "Yellow," when you are yellow?
Gothamist on on Jin and 50 Shekl.





Jin wasn't shot at..

To all Jin's supporters: Don't worry! Jin's got coverage all the way in the Midwest *Michigan!* He will be featured in a rising Asian magazine @ a college campus for the upcoming issue *Spring/Summer 2004*
All I got to say is: Jin is not only proud to be Chinese, he is also proud to be Asian/Asian American. Of course, how can you expect one man to represent all Asians? Do you even want him to? He's rapping out of his own experience, and that's what makes him unique. He is representing Asians, though, cuz he's going to be a breakthrough in the hip-hop scene for many more Asian rappers to follow.
jin is wack. get over it.
JIN IS SOO FOINE! why you guys hating on him..?
All i gots to say is that jin is doing his thang, for ALL asians. Hes tight, were hearing him all the way over here in london! Hes got flow, and knows how to spit freestlyes. Learn Chinese is innovative and all u haters shud respect that.
As far as sayin flips arent asian, look on the map fool! Im Half white, half asian n i gt flip bros. We all the same, Our grandparents or parents left ASIA to find a better life to get away from the real ghetto of starvation, slavery,
Jin's Sick, word.peace
yo thai, over tha weekend i was over at my boyz house, hes viet. we was listenin to your cd together we rize, its bangin!!
yo hes th shit... im hmong fools...i dont think jins a haten... we all azn ....
I think that Jin has a lot of potential and I hope he doesn't mess it up. He's got good lyrics and he knows how to rap. My only comment is about what Realest AZN said about the Black Eyed Peas. They are not wack, they have some very good talent and are just an all around good group. Oh and Julie Chan that really shows your intelligence by being a racist and putting down Filipinos. People like you make me sick but whatever that's your opinion and I don't have to like it.
y ya got to hate on us asians,yea we know we don't live in projects or the ghetto, we live on the street, that where we live. come to our streets in feshno cali. so don't hate on us asians. we aint trin to black, we live our own life, u jux don't know.
