"Strength In NUMBERS" breaks ground yet again, bringing together some of the best Asian American rappers and singers (with special guests from Korea and Japan), combined with CHOPS' signature powerhouse tracks. The lead single from the project is "Keep On" featuring the reunited Mountain Brothers, and singer Ann One. "Keep On" reunites MBs with award-winning director Chris Chan Lee, co-director of their "Galaxies" video.
"When I started out, the Asian American entertainment scene was bleak. My generation watched The Simpsons and Spongebob just to see some yellow faces. Fortunately things have changed some," CHOPS says. "A lot more great artists are making strides, taking things further, and I got to work with a bunch of my favorites for this project".
