Us Asian guys, we turn up where you’d least expect and always school you propah, dogg!
I’ll let this excerpt from the New York Times article tell the story:
In his lyrics Jin talks unabashedly about his Asian ethnicity, sometimes in self-defense but more often because he wants to bolster the idea of an Asian-American rapper. In last year’s battles on BET’s “106 & Park,” rival rappers most frequently hurled ethnic insults at Jin:
I’m a star
He just a rookie
Leave rap alone and keep making fortune cookies.
But Jin turned those taunts into his own disses:
You wanna say I’m Chinese
Sonny here’s a reminder
Check your Timbs
They probably say made in China
he raps, referring to Timberland shoes. And
Yeah, I’m Chinese
Now you understand it
I’m the reason that his little sister’s eyes are slanted
If you make one joke about rice or karate
N.Y.P.D. be in Chinatown searching for your body.
Yeah, boyeeeee!

Hey, Jin, if you're reading this, d'you need a guy to back you up, with accordion and smokin' rhymes?

Don't forget previous lyrical gems such as these from the Mountain Brothers, Philadelphia's own Asian hip-hop suckerpunch:
"For true heads I got tales
