As teenagers. The Talauega Brothers were discovered by Michael Jackson's choreographer while free-styling at a club in Oakland , CA.

  • @WarriorBK i looked it up n its true hey r u family w/ those guys??

  • @flychucklez: Just because your probably some broken arse has been doesnt mean that other Samoans are like you. There are many samoans that are successful and have achieved so much. You obviously havent heard of Rich & Tone Talauega, so rather than putting these guys down for their great achievement simply because you dont think samoans can be successful, why dont you pull ya pants up, have a shower, comb ya hair, brush your afro, show some class make something of yourself.

  • dang.. they choreographed michael jackson's video you rock my world?!?!?!? that's my FAVO VIDEO!!!!
