Far East Movement

Far East Movement (abbreviated FM) is an American hip hop and electronic music group based in Los Angeles, composed of Kev Nish, Prohgress, J-Splif, Jonathan Yip, Ray Romulus, and Jeremy Reeves. They signed with Martin Kierszenbaum's Cherrytree Records, an imprint of Interscope Records to release their 2010 single, "Like a G6" (featuring The Cataracs and Dev) which peaked the Billboard Hot 100, making them the first Asian-American group to reach number one on the chart. Their follow up singles, "Rocketeer" (featuring Ryan Tedder), peaked at number seven and preceded the release of their third album and major label debut, Free Wired (2010). It performed moderately on the Billboard 200. Their fourth album, Dirty Bass (2012) saw a steep commercial decline, although its lead single, "Live My Life" (featuring Justin Bieber) reached number 24 on the Billboard Hot 100.
