Episode 19: Defying Stereotypes and Trailblazing with Alan Z

 

Alan Z is a triple threat within the entertainment industry who carved his own lane as a versatile artist that raps and sings to bridge the gap between hip-hop and R&B but also bring more diversity with the music and acting industry. With his music, Alan Z intricately weaves pop, R&B, and hip-hop aggression into a tapestry that defines stereotypes and labels. Alan Z is planning to continue his platform to bring attention to social issues, bring diversity to the entertainment industry, and support other upcoming Asian and Pacific Islander artists. Alanʻs music has also been featured on the Netflix series, Wu Assassins.

Alan recently released his hit album Face Value in collaboration with Jason Chu featuring other Asian artists such as Dante Basco, Chow Mane, and Neela. Alan also wrote and produced an exclusive song for us here at the Moana Nui Podcast that highlights the untold stories of Hawaiiʻs long-standing history.
