World Artist Collaborations for Far East Movement’s Upcoming Album

World Artist Collaborations for Far East Movement’s Upcoming Album


Following the success of their 2010 US album Free Wired, Far East Movement‘s next project is globally-minded. Dirty Bass will drop May 22 internationally, and feature artists from around the world. Hit club anthem “Like a G6″ ft. Dev and The Cataracs launched Far East Movement from relative obscurity into electro/hip-hop stardom. These guys know how to cut a track and make it nearly impossible to forget, while working alongside artists like Snoop Dogg, Ryan Tedder of One Republic and Wiz Khalifa for past singles gave them credible staying power. While the entire tracklist hasn’t been revealed yet, released singles confirm that Dirty Bass features American artists LMFAO, Tyga, Justin Bieber and Rye Rye. Sanspo also reported last month that Korean artist Jang Geun Suk and Japanese artist Crystal Kay participated on the
 album as well

Crystal Kay — who is half African-American, half Korean, and an all-around Japanese Pop Princess — is featured on track, “Where the Wild Things Are.” When asked about her thoughts on the collaboration by Sanspo, she replied, “I was so happy that I started dancing. It’s like a dream to have my name on a foreign artist’s CD. Using this chance, I want to become a singer that can give appeal to the world.” 

 Since Far East Movement tends to borrow vocals from R&B and hip-hop artists, we were surprised to see Jang Geun Suk on the list of collaborators. Judging from past singles like “Let Me Cry,” the actor/singer has a smokey, made for rock-n-roll voice, and it’ll be interesting to hear how it fits into Dirty Bass. 

 The international release date for is May 22, and the domestic release will be June 5. While we wait, check out FM’s official Soundcloud and MVs for “Live My Life (Party Rock Remix),” “Jello” and “Dirty Bass.”
