American-born rapper MC Jin has had an interesting career to say the least. His hopping between the United States and Hong Kong has both widened and shrunken his fan bases respectively.
Recently sitting down with Vlad TV, Jin talked about just how big he was in Hong Kong and China at his peak.
“When I say I was the Justin Bieber, I meant in Hong Kong specifically,” Jin said when asked about his buzz at the highest point of his career. “If you magnify that to China as a whole, it may shrink, I may not be Justin Bieber, I may be Robin Thicke.”
The battle rapper’s buzz has diminished in both the United States and China, however he is still going and has apparently learned numerous life lessons along the way. Jin says his ego has been lowered and even goes as far as to say he “doesn’t deserve” the fame he’s received.
“I don’t think I deserve any of this, I don’t deserve what I got when I went to Hong Kong,” he explained when reflecting on his career. “I think I’m learning more and more that once upon a time where I thought I was really unique and really special in terms of like my skill and my talent and my identity like, ‘I got mad things I can bring to the table.’ I’m just learning that that might not be the case.”
Also during the interview, MC Jin explains why he moved back to the U.S. after years overseas and how he received his initial fame.

my best friend’s mother-in-law makes $68 an hour on the internet. She has been fired for 7 months but last month her paycheck was $21368 just working on the internet for a few hours. Go to this web site and read more… http://www.Cafe44.com
It’s nice to see a lady who can spit and doesn’t walk around half-naked in order to sell records. You’re a great role model for women everywhere.
She’s been fired for 7 months??? How about she’s been unemployed for 7 months shit for brains. Once you get fired, thats it, its happens, and its over. Dumb bitch cant even spam correctly.
@Don Dutch: LMAO!!
now thats what i call a real dude…big ups to JIN

“You been wack your whole career
Ain’t there two billion people in China?
You can’t even go platinum over there.

so Bill Gates got more money than us all on this comment section and Jin combined. Why don’t u suck him too?
typical g00k counting another mans money…stfu and go cook a dog and make a flip flop
MAN I HATE THAT BITCH AS DJ VLAD…DONT KNOW WHY ENTERTAINERS KEEP GIVING THIS LOSER EXCLUSIVE. SHOUT OUT TO ROZAY FOR PUNCHING THE FAG-GOT {THE BITCH GOT 300K} BUT THE PUNCH WAS WORTH IT. OTHER RAPPERS NEED TO STOP SUCKING UP TO THIS FOOL. HE AINT GOT NO PULL WITHOUT THE INTERVIEWS. Q FROM WORLDSTAR IS BY FAR A BETTER PERSON THAN THIS FOOL. FUCKING VLAD…DIE ALREADY
i couldnt care less about vlad but Q from worldstar is a faggot
Losing $300,000 for Ross was a big hit regardless of how much money he has. At the end of the day Ross got mad because Vlad made a comment about Ross being a C.O. Also, the reason Ross was mad is because Vlad gets a lot of traffic from his site and those comments reached a wide fan base. Probably the reason he can’t go gold to save his life.
fuck jin, fuck yo momma and fuck you YA BITCH!!!
chinese delivery boy in america…zipperhead beiber in china…go figure
zipperhead=white boy military racist talk
If you lepers hate us so much why do you follow us?
I don’t even know a Hispanic, Hindu or Arabic music website like HHDX. Why do you white racists spend your time on sites filled with nigg3r music when we all pay no attention to you and yours?
I have a question for you as well…why do you commit crimes and then blame white people when you get arrested?
also, why are you a g00k pretending to be black right now? black people don’t like g00ks either, nobody does
@ LOLOLOLOLOL
We can see you are a Caucasian bigot. I can also tell that response is from a Black person. Caucasians have a white on white crime problem, concentrate on cleaning your own house before you point at someone else’s mess. Thank you.
the audacity to name everything wrong with your race and try to pin it on white people…nice try chinky
Did he have a peak of his career? LOL
I only remember he had a very lame song ‘Learn Chinese’.
I bet in China (and Hong Kong) there are tons of acts that are better than this lil wanna be. And I think Chinese rappers rap Chinese, Yao, Cantonese, and so, but NOT in English.
Fuck Jin.
Notice how the white boys always have something to say about Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, Hebrews, Arabs, when they always follow and watch us.
Do we all follow them and spew racism?
American minority, do you stalk the White American to spew racism amongst their websites? Why do they do it to us?
American minority, could you even name their music genre major website?
stop bitching….theres plenty of white bashing on all minority websites but white people enjoy these sites unfortunately where the minorities don’t frequent well educated websites..the whites degrade themselves by coming to the shit hole sites
Yes you do, all the time.
I don’t see white bashing, can you name some sites? Thank you. Also I would like to know some of the other major music sites’ names, the OP has brought up an interesting subject to research.
yall better learn Chinese.
Get the fuck outta here chino.
Looks like Em’s album might be delayed….

HOP HOP LIVES UNDERGROUND AND THERE WILL ALWAYS BE REAL MCS
kendrick has an amazing talent but his cd whck
yo this is my comment …but i never put in the cafe44 shit in
No one gives a fuck.
Its time for a change for years the Ja rule comments were flooding this site but that has changed now. At one point it was funny but now it got old and people automatically just disregard comments about ja rule. It has gotten to the point where its so repetitive that even hhdx moderators delete the comment. THE JA RULE ARMY IS FINISHED JA RULE HAS BEEN IRRELEVENT. Its time for a new beggining its time for the GUCCI MANE ARMY TO RISE AND ASSEMBLE. From now on i expect comments to be about BIG GUWOP GUCCI MANE. Because GUCCI MANE is the realest nigga and he deserves respect for being the ONLY nigga saving gangster rap and being a real nigga in the rap game. GUCCI MANE ARMY ASSEMBLE!!!!!!
Serius Jones hurt this kid.. I think that’s why he had to move away. Seems like a good dude, but that “Learn Chinese” was the some Sambo shit..
Serious Jones is a fucking bum. At least Jin had one major label album and was in 2 Fast 2 Furious. Jones can’t even land a Taco Bell commercial.
