Since Interscope Records had many other popular artists like Eminem and 50 Cent, Planet Asia did not get much promotion. The Fresno rapper stayed with Interscope until 2003 and did not release one album. He did however get nominated for a Grammy Award in 2002 for the song "W" by Mystic. In October, 2007 Asia performed at the OC Tavern after Aliso Black an acclaimed member from the X-tort Clan opened for him. He also made many collaboration tracks with famous artists such as Linkin Park, Bun B, Talib Kweli and Ghostface Killah.
In 2003, Avatar Records signed Planet Asia to an exclusive world-wide recording contract and in 2004 released Planet Asia's debut album, The Grand Opening, to positive feedback. It earned him another Independent Album of the Year award from The Source. Avatar also released 12" vinyl records including "Summertime In The City" b/w "G's & Soldiers" featuring Kurupt, "Its All Big" b/w "Right or Wrong", and "Real Niggaz" featuring Ghostface. His record "G's & Soldiers" featuring Kurupt was prominently featured in John Travolta's 2005 film "Be Cool" released by MGM. After leaving Avatar, Planet Asia started his own record label, Gold Chain Music, with Walt Liquor.
His latest album, The Medicine, was released on October 3, 2006 on ABB Records. The entire album was produced by Evidence of Dilated Peoples, with co-production credits from The Alchemist, Nucleus & Bravo.

We coming with that real flow
When we get together it's whatever you want
And when we put it down it's whatever you want
So cold cut why'all know
We coming with that real flow
When we get together it's whatever you want
Ah-yo, crazy in the head
My rock steady shots turn niggas to crazy legs
From crush groove to crush dice
I touch mikes plus I leave MCs hallucinating off my raps like dust
From solid land to shallow
From ocean to link the rap shall be felt
Once the god takes shape
Invisible Form
The earth is yes seen change
Or can straight kill all material so respect G
I thought I told why'all that Jason was a threat
I could have sworn niggas learned from The Faces of Death
Strapped cocked and rocking my raps
Silent weapons supply
Wars behold the barehoarse horseman
Holding the sword ghosting
I spoke
And the whole world felt it
And when I rhyme signed and unsigned mcs get dealt with
Off instinct
Black belt makes tracks melt purposely
When their motherfucking style is mysery
Verse with me, zone out
Yeah
From when his !!!!!!!!!!!! sense
To find my mind shift to a quality stage
So while why'all niggaz flash diamonds
Me in the last !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trying to outshine why'all
To the last assignment
Move in silence if you want more violence
Catch why'all with that iron
You start firing
Hot ones
My LP is pure coke for heads to nod to
I write tracks that attract coliseums
It's uncut like real dro
We coming with that real flow
When we get together it's whatever you want
And when we put it down it's whatever you want
So cold cut why'all know
We coming with that real flow
When we get together it's whatever you want
And when we put it down it's whatever you want
Ah-yo my music feels real good that's why the real feels it
Plus the rest of that shit should get filted
Who would've thought that a nigga from Cali would've brought the game back to the witted
They built it
My cypha sound surrounds the earth to leave the planet tilted
Quick to spill ill shit for real
And underwater niggaz is bitin' like pits with gills
That's why I never show love to a snaked deception
I chop the motherfucking head off and take the blessing
The lesson digester
Throw the bitch like crack fouls
I crush your wack style cause you'll never get the best of
