oh I can see where you're coming from with that. There's definitely discrimination in the industry. But then again, I guess we'll never know how many asian kids try to go that path and fail lol It's definitely going to be easier for them to enter the music market though vs. movies. If they have the voice or the dance experience.

Anyways, I think hollywood is a little out of touch with people these days.


Personally, I don't feel like her western releases were generic enough, nor creative enough. I mean, if you get really creative crazy, people want to see lol You might not get radio plays...but it's not all about that. Especially now...

Or if you have some new style. Even if it's not totally original. Like Lana Del Rey. ew.

I also think...you know, it only takes ONE REALLY good song that people want to hear. And I don't see those anywhere around in those two albums. idk maybe I'm in the minority on this one, but if I want someone around me to really like and respect hikki as a musician...I'm probably not going to give them her english albums. Unless it's someone who likes unique R&B stuff.

I do love and appreciate them...but...I would have liked to see more...at least from TITO. I think Exodus is pretty creative in its sound.
