"It's not like that often, I mean, I suppose out of a ratio of 10 fans maybe like 1 or 2 of 'em might be Asian, and maybe every second or third time they might bring up something that they're Asian and I'm Asian"

- James Iha

About this Quote

This quote by James Iha is describing the absence of Asian representation in the music industry. He is stating that out of 10 fans, only 1 or 2 of them might be Asian, and even then, they might just bring up their Asian identity every 2nd or 3rd time. This suggests that Asian representation is not really typical in the music market, and that Asian fans are not as noticeable as other fans. This could be due to a lack of Asian representation in the industry, or it could be due to an absence of Asian fans. Either way, it is clear that Asian representation is not as typical as it must be. This quote highlights the significance of increasing Asian representation in the music industry, so that Asian fans can feel more visible and consisted of.
