The group saw the power of the internet, the Asian American\/Asian population and the changing music industry. <\/p>\n<p>Armed with great music, hip hop talent and a talented DJ, they created music and captured the masses, relentlessly pursuing the online audience and creating a massive fan base. Fast forward to today and what is the result? On November 20th, it was confirmed that the group had reached the double platinum status for &#8220;Like a G6&#8221;, collecting two million in sales and counting. <\/p>\n<p>Their second single to be released for airplay as a follow up to &#8220;Like A G6&#8221; is called &#8220;Rocketeer&#8221;, which will exclusively feature Ryan Tedder.

Right when I meet someone, I try to figure out whether we click or not. If it\u2019s uncomfortable from the start, chances are it won&#8217;t get any better in the future.<\/p>\n<h3>What qualities to you look for in a girlfriend?<\/h3>\n<p>Good conversation.  I love being around people who aren&#8217;t afraid to talk about things and expose their personalities.  You don&#8217;t have to be born with the gift of gab either. Sometimes good conversations are very minimal yet substantial.<\/p>\n<h3>What was the longest relationship you were ever in?<\/h3>\n<p>1 year.  I used to blame my lack of long term relationships on the other side, but after a few failed attempts I&#8217;m starting to wonder&#8230;.<\/p>\n<h3>Did you ever have a nickname given to you by a girlfriend<\/h3>\n<p>Just the regular terms of affection. Nothing out of the ordinary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On his first kiss:<\/strong> In the 3rd grade I had a crush on a girl but she didn&#8217;t like me.  So one day I told her that there was a bee on her shoulder; she looked to her shoulder trying to shoo it away and realized there was nothing there. When she turned back I snuck a peck in on the lips and ran away \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n<p><strong>On a perfect date:<\/strong> I like trying new things with people that I trust or want to get to know.  Nothing like being in uncomfortable situations that shows real personalities.  So maybe trying cooking, sky diving, or arm wrestling haha I dunno?  <\/p>\n<h3>Do you have a celebrity crush or someone, who is in the public eye, that you would like to date?

We were walking to my car and I decided to go for it. I turn to her and just kiss her. I still can&#8217;t believe she kissed me back. I remember getting butterflies in my stomach because I always had a thing for her. I haven&#8217;t seen her since. I still think about that night. I wonder if she does as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On a perfect date:<\/strong> A perfect date for me would be staying in since I&#8217;m always on the road, cooking a nice dinner for her and rent some movies. Then she falls asleep on the couch. I notice it is kinda cold in the room so I get her a blanket to keep her warm. After all that, I kiss her on the forehead and say good night.<\/p>\n<h3>Do you have a celebrity crush or someone, who is in the public eye, that you would like to date?
