Jin's Response Tsunami Song

01.26.05
Well, what do you know? At 6:03 am, Hot 97 made an annoucement that the Miss Jones Morning Show has been 'suspended indefinitely' because of the backlash from the 'Tsunami Song' Statement from WQHT-FM, HOT 97. Listen to an audio clip of the station's announcement here.

'Check this out! Rapper Jin answers back to Hot 97's 'Tsunami Song' with an exclusive track—a call to arms, if you will: Tsunami Response. It's hot. I've had it on repeat for the last twenty minutes. Here are the lyrics:


'Home of Hip Hop and R&B' (yeah right)
What a joke
Since when was Hip Hop about being racist and being ignorant, huh?
Tell me that

I'm only gonna say this once (once)
Somebody gotta say it (word)
Check it (talk to em)

You got it twisted
If you think I'm here to cock block on a bunch of
No talent wannabe, shock jocks (nah)
And they say it's all freedom of speech
Well you just lost yours
Read 'em and weep

We won't be happy till you fired
My peoples is pissed homes
And I bet you not a soul would miss Jones (Miss who?)
My point exact
And tell the rest of your staff
That they need to clean up they act

Fuck the tsunami song
And whoever thought of it
Matter of fact, fuck the engineer that recorded it
And the brains behind the scenes that applauded it
Anything for ratings (huh)
This shit is corporate
That little bullshit statement has got to be
The world's most half assed apology

Yet thousands are still getting discovered each day
How dare you compare a life to a week's pay
Interested, y'all quick to have smack fests
But those who really need to ain't get slapped yet

And it's rare that I'm even rapping pissed
Jin is far from a human rights activist
So don't take this in a political fashion
Nope, it's just a good old lyrical bashing

In fact I'm making it a mission of mine
I won't stop till every last petition is signed
Hip Hop is designed to unify the masses
And we demand that you be denied the access (gimme that)

Radio is whack yo, somebody got to say this (say it)
Same five songs on every single play list
And bad karma is the worst way to go
So I pray that God has mercy on your soul (yeah)

I mean you knew I was going to have something to say about this whole situation
Cause for some odd reason, whenever some shit like this happens in
regard my peoples
in this society, in the media
It always manages to get swept under the rug or end up right below the
radar for some reason
Like it never happened

But let it be any other race and this shit would've been hit the fan

All my soldiers out there
It's time for our voices to be heard, yo
No more of that shit (uh huh)
But you know I got love for everybody
Whether you black, white, Hispanic
That's why I love Hip Hop cause it brings us all together
I'm just saying don't let it your peoples that they dissing next time
Making fun of they tragedies just for a cheap laugh

You sitting there like 'What the fuck?'
Know what I'm saying
So yo, keep them emails going through man
Keep those complaint letters going out
Keep them phone calls going in to the radio station and the sponsors
Telling them how you feel
And what a fucked up move they made

Let them know, let them know it's about the people
And shout out to Miss Info too
Keep your head up ma (yeah)


Oh yeah and if all else fails just turn that bullshit off
