"Far*East Movement is no doubt the leader in the Asian American hip hop scene".
—JAE CHONG
Hailing from L.A.'s Korea Town, this Asian hip hop group consisting of Kev Nish, Prohgress and J-Splif found their fourth member, DJ Virman of Powerhouse 106, in 2008.
As of 2010, they are currently signed with Lady Gaga's label, Cherrytree/Interscope Records, and were thus the opening act of her Monster Ball Japan tour. They also performed at the Powerhouse 106 concert in 2009 with the likes of Jay-Z, Kid Cudi, Pitbull, etc. Aside from performing with other notable artists (ex. Pharrell Williams & N.E.R.D.), their music has been featured on big screens such as Get Him to the Greek, CSI: Miami, Tokyo Drift, America's Best Dance Crew, etc.
It has been predicted that this all-Asian group will only continue to explosively succeed with their club-banging hits and highly charismatic performances.
“Far East Movement is a big, international group. It’s rare to find Artists who know how to rock a crowd with real, hip-hop savvy with songs that have a pop sensibility. And these talented motherf*ckers are Asian!? Welcome to the breath of fresh air and sight for sore eyes the music industry has been waiting for - shift to the worldwide movement, FM.”
