C-Section is also dope

wow@this

of course its a gimmick in a predominatly black culture... at first...

its like being white isnt a gimmick anymore... its really a shame that race is a gimmick... everyone should have 1 love

I rap for fun, not for show, no gimmicks no nothing. I'm out rapbattles.com because I get bored and I just spit rhymes on the net.

GOT RICE BITCH!! ASIAN PRIDE!!

LAOS 4 EVER!!

Shout outs to all my peeps in SouthEast Asia!! We REPRESENTING!! Slant Eye Til I Die!

k maybe that was a little gimmicky...lmao

but at least he reps da slanty eyes...

{Peace}

yh....maybe nxt gimmik but sum are skilld......

hmmmmmmm....actually, non are skilld except jin...then agen...i aint heard many

No respect for asian artists....Stick to making fortune cookies and fried rice, yes even Jin!! My man WeeGee Ripped Jin Twice(first time jin thought his shit was written, so they battled again and WeeGee killed him again) At Club Amnesia's(Who's The Illest 607)Just Last year, a event that jin was sponsoring, judges even voted for my man, yet Jin brags hes unbeaten...I have seen nothing special from any asian artist....Yes, A big gimmick!

i dont think they are good contenders... no one wants to hear about growing up in the richest part of town zooming around in merecedes and acuras

If you was 5'8" and you played ball somewhat. Then u seen spud webb or earl boykins standing at like 5'6", and was like..damn if he can play then i can play, and u look up to him...does that mean short people in the NBA are a gimmick..lmfao...no

If your saying that jin is ONLY rapping because he is asian and they are trying to make money off of that fact solely, and he truley does not have talent, THEN that makes him a gimmick.

getting facts/defentions straight before entering into discussions is always recommended.

one

my facts are straight... u just took what i said wrong... now jin does have talent... as a freestyle artist... he had drag on,swizz beats and cross teach him how to write songs... anyway this dudes songs are wack, he used tired ass punchlines and shit, shit i would say ina battle and i suck... so do i think he is tryin to make money off his race? yeah, his first fuckin single is called Learn fuckin chinese... sure he has some shread of talent but the biggest part of his hype is that hes fuckin asian... so to me this is just a annoying ass gimmick... because hes playin off his fagget ethnicity... and as for the earl boykins thing... thats a different situation cuz ur not there solely for him, ur there for the team, and he doesnt make anymore money if u buy tix or not, since his contract is set... now jin makes more money themore he sells, so hes doin everything he can to make money... as where boykins has to actually produce good quality in order to make money...

^ i get you, but this is the way you should think about it : Jin is a gimmick. Not this way : Asians are a gimmick.

Thats a subliminal form of racism. I'm not saying your racist, but you might be discriminating a tad too much.

BTW, tad means little.

i think yall should chill.. jin is the only asian thats out now.. soo dont say all asians are gimmicks.. i dont use my backround too get votes on a battle or too get replies on a open mic i fuckin rep were im from because im proud of it.. not because i could use it too get eyes upon me ok??? soo dont say asian rappers are a gimmick
