Far East Movement

Far East Movement achieved global recognition when their track ‘Like a G6’ soared to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The American hip hop and electronic music group, composed of Kevin Nishimura (Kev Nish), James Roh (Prohgress), and Jae Choung (J-Splif), initially performed as ‘Emcees Anonymous’ at local Los Angeles events in 2001, promoting their music online. Their professional trajectory began with the mixtape ‘_Audio-Bio_’ in 2005, followed by their debut album, ‘_Folk Music_’, in early 2006. A significant milestone occurred that same year when their single ‘Round Round’ was prominently featured in the film ‘_The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift_’, appearing on both the official soundtrack and video game.

Also in 2016, Far East Movement launched Transparent Arts (TA), their own artist management company. That year, they released their independent album ‘_Identity_’, which debuted at number one on the global iTunes dance charts. Following J-Splif’s departure from the group in 2016, Far East Movement released several new singles, including ‘Bamboo’ featuring Jason Zhang and Kina Grannis in 2018, and multiple tracks in 2019: ‘Blossoms’ featuring Troop Brand and Vava, ‘Lovebird’ featuring Lay, ‘Paint the Clouds’ featuring Tia Ray, ‘Maps’ featuring Diamond, Starchild Yeezo, and Rell the Soundbender, and ‘Glue’ featuring Heize and Shawn Wasabi.
