Far East Movement


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 j-pan 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.”
