Media Entertainment What did Asians do just as good or even better in cinema, television, animations, stage, and music versus the world?

Also there is the problem of halfie looking Filipinos like black latino looking Bruno Mars or white latina looking Olivia Rodrigo getting an upper hand in terms of marketability in a still somewhat prejudiced American demographic.

There are so many amazing pure looking Filipino singers out there that will probably have a harder time getting a Hot 100 hit than those two I mentioned above since they don't look black, white, or latino. I think Charice Pempenco could have gotten a Hot 100 chart topper back in the early 2010's if this wasn't the case.

I would like to see the Philippines develop their own style of music, a brand of music that we can export around the world and have a monopoly in.  Kpop is an example.  Kpop's music is similar to American pop, but what separates Kpop from other pop music around the world (in my amateur opinion since I'm not too familiar with Kpop) is their music videos and their dance choreography.  If we look at Reggaeton, it's seeping into mainstream American music.  Reggaeton's main weakness (with regards to the U.S., Canadian, English, and etc. market) is that the music is sung in Spanish, and language for most people is still going to be a "hit or miss" regardless of how good the music is.  But because Reggaeton (and Latin music in general) have grown as an industry over the past several decades, that the U.S. has now a large Spanish speaking population or a population from Spanish speaking countries, a general familiarization of Latin culture, the popularity of Zumba which in turn popularized Reggaeton and other Latin music, and the fact the U.S. music scene has somewhat matured or peaked, has allowed for Reggaeton and other Latin music to make inroads into the American music scene.       

Not just music but overall style. Our forefathers were more influence by white culture like Elvis Presley and my generation are influence by black culture. The next generation are more likely to mirror Kpop which can be troubling to me, so Yes I agree we should start making our own. 

Asians are good at anime & video games. 

I'm thinking that we should be making new water sports.
