Far East Movement's 'Like a G6' sounds familiar

Far East Movement, the first Asian-American hip-hop group to scale the pop charts, succeeds because its smash single "Like a G6" fits in so well that no one gives the band members'

race a second thought. That will continue with their debut "Free Wired" (Cherrytree/ Interscope), and the flurry of hits sure to follow. While "G6" sounds like M.I.A. crossed with Ke$ha, "Girls on the Dance Floor" could have come from the Black Eyed Peas, and "Rocketeer" could have come from Kanye West's crew, especially with Ryan Tedder singing the hook.
