Thanks to our fans, family, friends and god… our first ever headlining show at the famous Roxy Theater in Hollywood was SOLD OUT. The Roxy has held the likes of Gun’s n Roses, Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z, Linkin Park, Run DMC and the list goes on and on… so as artists from LA it was sick to be able to rock here, and know that our home town has our back. THANK YOU.

This had to have been the most unforgettable night of our career (and hopefully just the begining).. starting out in dressing rooms… where our new space ship is fueling for the FM SPACE TOUR:

Soundcheck…

Its been about 2 years since we dropped our first album “Folk Music” back in 2005-06. Over that span of time…we’ve toured the world, met some amazing people, made new family, had a few songs on major radio, tv and movies, worked with some amazing artists, became International Secret Agents, and the biggest accomplishment of all… FINALLY FINISHED OUR 2ND ALBUM: ANIMAL.

I just got mine… DAYM IT FEELS GOOOOOD….

This album would not have been possible without the love and support from all of our amazing fam, street team, and community. This album is a product of people’s love and people believing in something and taking action to make it happen.

Inside the album in the credits lists the crazy team we work with on a daily basis that help take this FAR EAST MOVEMENT to the next level.

Thank you to all you amazing people we’ve met over the years that have continued to spread the music and the movement and inspire us to keep on pushing and take the game to the next level. We always say this in our interviews.. “Without you all we’d be some dudes chilling in our bedrooms making music for ourselves… but with you all its a FAR EAST MOVEMENT”.

Hopefully you all will be getting your ANIMAL Albums this week or early next week… thank you guys for your patience, there were problems getting them pressed but we made sure we got it right to get you the best quality product, and i promise its worth the wait

If you haven’t yet ordered your ANIMAL Album they’re now available here

MERRY XMAS and THANK YOU FAMILY.

FM Street Teams from the Bay Area and SacTown joined forces to discuss and plan 2 major projects: promotion of GIRLS ON THE DANCE FLOOR and education about ISA, FM and 4C the Power in NorCal.

This dedicated group met for over 5 hours and came away with “plan of attack” in geographical areas of the Bay Area and SacTown to promote GIRLS ON THE DANCE FLOOR and educate about ISA, 4C and FM!

If you want to know more about the “plan” and would like to join the “attack” contact us at 4cthepower@gmail.com

Stay tuned for an Eating FM from Monica about the Squeeze Inn which was featured on Food Network…….yummmmmyyyyyy!

(FM STREET TEAM! PLEASE BULLETIN AND SPREAD THE WORD!)

Since there was a delay on getting the ANIMAL album’s to you all, we decided its not fair for yall to wait any longer so tonight at 8pm pst we will be playing you the whole album on FM TV… and we’ll be giving you a brief story behind each track.

We’ll also be giving away tee shirts and autographed ANIMAL Albums… so be ready to answer some questions from the blog.

PURCHASE THE NEW “ANIMAL” ALBUM HERE.

It was late night and i was randomly looking at myspace pages and on the Stereotypes top friends was a dude named BRUNO MARS.

I clicked his page and when the first song popped up on myspace i was pretty shocked. Then i started listening to his other songs and they were all insane so i had to start telling everyone i knew to check out his stuff cuz its rare to stumble across a random myspace and find someone with one of the craziest voices i’ve heard in a minute. Everyone that checked out his music had the same reaction as me. I called up the Stereotypes and said “DUDE.. WE NEED TO LINK WITH THIS DUDE… DUDE”.

Later i find out Bruno was signed to a major label and has done some huge songs, from Sean Kingston to Menudo and now the FAR EAST MOVEMENT…

Went over to the Stereotypes new studio in North Hollywood to link up with them and Bruno. Some serious hits were made at this spot.. check the walls…

Worked on a song that’s featured on our new album called “3D”…. A heavy bass track that’s about “fresh girls” or “3D GIRLS”.. girls that got style and look fly from all directions and dimensions.

Bruno on the keys.

3D came out insane, one of our most favorite songs on ANIMAL with all the other 14 favorites haha. Be sure to turn up the volume and bump this LOUD.

3 Fingers up ALL DAY.

Before working with Bruno we went out to watch him perform at a spot called Tengu, and the live show was just as crazy as the music. Being performers, we’re probably the most critical viewers, and his show was flawless.

Bruno has another show this thursday at 10pm at Molly Malones in Hollywood. After our ANIMAL ALBUM Listening Session at the studio, we’ll be headed out to Bruno’s show to watch a crazy performance.. so if yall are 21 n over and looking to see a dope show, meet us there!

ADD HIM UP! Bruno Mars Myspace

what up fam!

i know i’m a little late & the show broadcasted last Wednesday night (11/26) but i haven’t had much time for free time since then! I’m actually listening to the re-broadcast right now, which is getting me to do this little write up.

To keep it short & simple, the place was just full of genuine good times! Pumpkin pie, pizza, juice, good music, good people, & Far East Movement rockin’ the mics with DJ Virman killin ‘em on the tables… what more do you need for a pre-thanksgiving radio show, right?! lol. Even though i did suffer the consequences of one too many rounds & missed our 6:15am flight to the Bay the next morning, i had to come thru for FM! Animal has arrived!!!

Thanks again guys for blessing us at the show! Can’t wait for the next!

3 fingers up!
