After listening to all speeches during the Michael Jackson Memorial Service about breaking down race barriers, watch this speech from Ben Baller about the Far East Movement’s concert at the ROXY. It is not easy for Asian Americans in hip hop community. The former DJ turned high end jeweler never thought an Asian American hip hop group like Far East Movement would ever play the ROXY, where hundreds of famous and yet-to-be-famous acts have played this highly prestigious venue.

Watch Ben Baller’s speech and the highlight clips from the Far East Movement concert including a tribute to Michael Jackson (The video is not the best quality, but the the speech is good. also the video is NSFW for language.)
