Finding their inspiration from the diverse city blocks and night club scene of Southern California, FM has built a strong internet fan base and a new lifestyle brand for the next generation of youth around the world. “The Far East Movement is the name for our music, lifestyle, and our party. For the diverse music fan that hits up 3 clubs in 1 night, tuned to the racing scene and fashion, and back on the computer religiously checking blogs and sites for anything related to that.”- FM
FM has embarked on 2 World Tours (including the USA, South America, Canada, Europe and Asia) and recently featured on the 35 city Party Rock Tour with LMFAO, signed distribution deals in Japan and Korea (Avex Network and JF Productions respectively), garnered multiple features on MTV World, and also featured music on worldwide media such as FOX’s “So You Think You Can Dance”, MTV’s “America’s Best Dance Crew”, ABC Family’s Lincoln Heights, CBS Primetime shows “CSI: Miami” and “CSI: NY”, multiple placements on HBO’s “Entourage”, “Fast & Furious Tokyo Drift” and “Finishing the Game” (a featured film at Sundance 2007). FM was also the first Asian act to perform at the Sundance Film Festival’s prestigious Music Café Gala hosted by ASCAP, and was also recently a featured act at the Cannes Film Festival in France. As producers, FM worked with Jin the Emcee to create ABC JIN, an award-winning, platinum album that broke records for first week sales in Hong Kong.
In the world of marketing, the Far*East Movement has been sought out by major companies to endorse their products. They worked with McDonalds as celebrity judges and were featured artists for the national Big Mac Chant campaign and spokespersons/tour headliners for McDonald’s Lost Ring campaign during the 2008 Olympics. FM was also a featured artist for Verizon Wireless’s LG Dare ‘Touch One’ Campaign. They’ve also co-created a series of live concerts with Wong Fu Productions to benefit community outreach called the International Secret Agents with endorsements by JCPenney and Verizon.
Far East Movement’s single “Girls On The Dance Floor” has taken over clubs and radio stations around the world, reaching #1 on Los Angeles radio and charting on the Billboard Charts. On February 12th, 2010, the Far East Movement officially signed their first major label record deal with Cherrytree / Interscope Records. After 2 independent album releases and a rigorous tour schedule, the Far East Movement is in the studio working with the Stereotypes (Production team) on their 3rd album and first major release in 2010.
The original members of Far East Movement, Kevin Nishimura (Kev Nish), James Roh (Prohgress), and Jae Choung (J-Splif), grew up in Koreatown, Los Angeles, California.

The trio promoted their music online and began performing at local clubs and events in Los Angeles; soon, they began their musical career with the name "Emcee's Anonymous" by 2001. However, they later changed it to Far East Movement or FM, originating from a song that they produced with the same name. In 2003, they organized together an event called "Movementality" in Koreatown, LA, featuring ten different performances with all the proceeds sent to a local youth drug rehabilitation center.

Far East Movement Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That means we have the night of our lives
If tomorrow
Never comes
Then tonight we lose control
If I die tomorrow
That means we have the night of our lives
If tomorrow
Then tonight we lose control
Shake that jello, this your jam, yeah
This that flavor for your pants
Drop that top and bump that trump
Hands up let me see you dance
Kill that bottle let's get nice
Dead that clock it's about that time
Pop that roll last all night
Hit that run and don't think twice
Say aah
Let me see you break your back
Girl go crazy
And if you got that super bad
Girl, girl damn that's crazy
The way you throw that in my lap
Yeah, uh, you so crazy
And if you ain't got time to act
Double time girl shake it fast
If I die tomorrow
That means we have the night of our lives
If tomorrow
Never comes
Then tonight we lose control
If I die tomorrow
That means we have the night of our lives
If tomorrow
Never comes
Then tonight we lose control
We can lose control
Then we can lose control
Then we can lose control

Two times two is deja-vu
Me plus them is two live crew
Baby got moves I love my boo

But that's not you
Let's go ham, this your chance
Lose your mind, or lose your pants

Girl damn that's crazy
Now let me hear you let it out

Yo turned around girl take a bow
Spread it out I'm a brush it down
If I die tomorrow
That means we have the night of our lives
If tomorrow

Than tonight we lose control
If I die tomorrow
That means we have the night of our lives
If tomorrow
Never comes
Then tonight we lose control
We can lose control
Then we can lose control
Then we can lose control
I came alone
If I ain't got you with me I ain't going home
Let me introduce you to the path of wrong
Hands in the air
Catch me I'm I'm I'm
Catch me I'm thrown
We can lose control
Then we can lose control
If I die tomorrow (If I die)
That means we have the night of our lives
If tomorrow
Never comes
Then tonight we lose control
