The history of the entertainment industry is one rife with issues pertaining to diversity, representation, and inclusion. In the music industry particularly, Asian artists are subverting the aforementioned story of exclusion and claiming their place in the spotlight. This phenomenon raises a number of critical questions. Why are Asians now finding visibility in the media after decades of being culturally unseen? Is this change indicative of a positive paradigmatic shift for Asians? This podcast series, Where the Asians At? hopes to address those questions, as well as call attention to the noteworthy work of Asian and Asian Americans artists. We'll examine how the American media ecosystem perceives Asians, and discuss online influencers, who have helped shape the perceptions of Asians in popular media—from Wong Fu Production and Just Kidding Films—as well as four artists, who I believe started it all—Jeremy Passion, Tim Chantarangsu, Jeff Bernat and Dumbfounded—and the ways in which they inspired this podcast and galvanized me to pursue a job in the music industry.
