Anyone who watched 106&Park's rap battle segment Freestyle Friday in the early 2000s may remember Jin, the young Chinese rapper who surprised everyone on the show with his witty rhymes and flow. After defeating his competition and becoming the Champ, Jin signed a deal with Ruff Ryder Records and his career began to take off. His debut album The Rest is History peaked as number fifty-four on the Bill Board's R&B/HipHop and received great reviews. Then in 2005 Jin split from his label and announced that he was taking a break from the industry.
