A Couple Songs And Some Freestyles

100 Grand Jin (originally titiled A Couple Songs and Some Freestyles or A Bunch of Songs and Some Freestyles) is a mixtape/album by rapper Jin. The release soon followed Jin's second victory at the 50K Fight Klub Battle at the Mixshow Power Summit, thus the album title changed to 100 Grand Jin. It features the controversially titled "Fuck Jay-Z" which is not a Jay-Z diss, on the contrary, it was a way to garner some attention to Jin's message in that people love beefs between rap artists. Technically, most of this album has been leaked, by Jin himself. Many of these songs have been available on Jin's MySpace page, as well as his old web site. Most have since been removed. One noteworthy song is "Music Is For Life" which was remade on Hi-Tek's album Hi-Teknology 2 without Jin's verse.
