Everyone knows Jin, he was quite a big word around the internet back then.
Heck, I even got most of his freestyle on BET videos! And you know Point
Blanc been making his point with his solo effort and the whole Voyeur Records
thing. When he first released 'Ipoh Mali', that shit was hot on the radio, even
ERA FM (Malaysia's No. 1 Radio) was high on that track. Now imagine both of
these emcees in a track, its just a crazy combination. Kinda brings back to the
days where Too Phat once featured Warren G, now we have Point Blanc
featuring Jin. It's a good day for Hip Hop in Malaysia (even Singapore, man
we're connected). Nonetheless to say, this track is off the hinges.
"I'm making malaysian kids proud of where they from, now they screaming 'Ipoh
Mali'" - Point Blanc
"So before the day that I die, at least I know that I try, to achieve the
unimaginable that money can't buy" - Point Blanc
"You're gonna tell your grandkids bout us one day."
"I came in did exactly what they say I couldn't do" - Jin
(video, links and lesson to be inspired after the jump)

So what's the lesson all about? It's about doing it. It doesn't matter bout
where you're from, what color your skin is or even what language you speak.
These two cats proved it, it can be done and they're still trying and fighting.
They're going beyond than just defining what Hip Hop is to them, they're moving
to the area of where they can enable and inspire the dreams of others. And
that's a beautiful thing. Remember back then when Jin was in BET? He was
practically the only chinese in there! And he burn other emcees to shame. That's
a valid lesson here and that is to try and do your best in whatever you do and
screw what others say, they don't know your capabilities, so don't let them
limit it. Go beyond!
"Once a task is just begun, never leave it till it's done. Be the labor great
or small, do it well or not at all." - Quincy Jones
