Summary

In 2015, the Kinjaz blew up on Season 8 of America's Best Dance Crew, massively changing the industry of dance and how Asians are perceived in media and entertainment. As admirers, we saw how impactful it was for our Asian American peers to see dancers with faces like theirs, tear it up on stage. Mike Song and Anthony Lee are two of the founding members of the Kinjaz and in this episode, they share with us the crazy and inspiring journey they've been on (How did they go from dance performances to plant-based noodles? What is the dance scene in China like? What was the first dance move they learned? What would they be doing if not dance?). Listen in to find out!
