Future Rock Stars of America

I had originally uploaded this back in January 2006, but the quality was pretty crappy, so here it is revamped in honor of FM's success on the music charts. It's crazy how far FM has come since the time this was shot (2004-2005)! So proud of these guys. http://www.fareastmovement.com

Inspirational stuff. So true about Asians caring so much about "integrating" they forget about their culture and supporting their own people.

i find how stupid it is for some people who are not willing to look past the color of someones skin. Far East Movement got the #1 on iTunes not because of the color of their skin, but because of their talent. people should look at it like that these days. were in the 21st century. Wong Fu has said that they wanted people to look past the race and notice someones talent first. Its mainstream media that you see today that is putting Asians into a negative light. that needs to stop

awesome

[aaronchangsta]

AWESOME! I love seeing the history of minorities who become successful!

This is a masterful piece with a lot of complexities. We have the concept of an "Asian culture" existing in the US, and Asians of various ethnicities being "Asian," whereas, in my experience, a Korean citizen wouldn't really think so strongly of being "Asian," but being Korean.

Sadly, Asians are under-represented in US entertainment. Having lived in Korea and seen the whole range of music done well, from rap to punk to metal to electronica to reggae to jungle, it's sad the US market suffers.
