There are tons of Asian American musicians. They just aren't famous. The record companies probably don't think they will sell well or something and don't sign them.

most popular music acts are people with some kinda industry push, but for whatever reasons, you don't see a lot of Asian/Asian-American artists having that kinda support despite there being many talented acts if you look around on YouTube, and stuff like that

I think one of the few Asian acts that got a lot of industry support in recent memory was Rich Brian, and a lot of that was due to the novelty of an Indonesian dude sounding like a gangsta rapper, but he was given a chance, and you can see he has a lot more to offer than that.

Why are you upset that there are a lot of African American musicians? Why do you not care that there are also a lot of White American and Latino American musicians. Stop Anti Black Hate and Envy

I think Sylo Nozra is Asian-Canadian but you should check him out anyways because the line between Asian-American and Asian-Canadian isnt a very significant one in terms of cultural experiences.
