[eiji11]

@planetinfinite if anything Drake liked this, as he claims Phonte is his favorite rapper.

[BiancaLonden]

I GOT CHILLS watching this and listening to the music & words.....LOVE

[Amir3793]

Gotta find a way home

Maybe there's a new day

Can't stand this anymore

Gotta change these dirty ways.

Powerfull as fuck lyrics

Foreign Exchange = Quality

[superwomanjones]

I saw FE in concert I love them they sounded great singing this!!!!

[jonmmadison]

beautiful and so sad.

[gideonsuitebread]

Muhsinah always reminds me of Theo's first real girlfriend, Tanya from the Cosby Show. We wish you were there @Sugarhill in ATL. 08' F+E concert Muhsinah.

[rss22]

I LOVE THIS TRACK!!!!! The lyrics are the truth, the video is moving, and phonte is fine!!!!!

[OhNoThanks]

this track is on constant rotation

[OhNoThanks]

1 person need to get their ears cleaned!

[TGIHF]

Still such an amazing song and video! Sheesh!!

[DeannDmere]

OOOOh WEEEEE!!! I am loving this!!!!!

[Revolutionoffunk]

Hot, hot track.....

Radio is a corporate wasteland of market research and "yes" men.

GOOD MUSIC IS REVOLUTION! Seek it out...

[jindigo79]

i play this song all the time...confession all the damn time...lol!

[MyJunior1975]

Surprisingly, no one came to a Foreign Exchange video bitching about their song having the same title as a Radiohead song- like Metallica fans have done Bobby Valentino's video for "Turn The Page". But then again, Radiohead's fans are intelligent...as opposed to heavy metal fans.

[downonbarbe]

I have a feeling that somebody wants to keep us dumb....only reason I can explain why this is not available for everyone on radio airplay.

[rss22]

Discovered this peice today, I'm in love with the videom the song, the meaning, and the melting pot of voices and sounds on this track. I need phonte to sing to me everyday, I love this mans' voice!

[sonaiyasmom]

everytime i look up the lyrics, it says the first line of the hook is "i've seen a side of you weren't meant for..." but i SWEAR i hear "i've seen the sorrow you were meant for..."!!

[rythebrain]

@sonaiyasmom it is "sorrow you were meant for" ...."side of you weren't meant for" makes no sense

[sonaiyasmom]

@rythebrain see, that's what i always thought. but seriously, look up the lyrics. almost every posting of the lyrics says "side of you weren't meant for." made no sense to me either, but i thought maybe... artistic license?

[slashsiusslay]

@sonaiyasmom Keep in mind that there are a LOT of lyrics sites that just copy and paste the lyrics from another site, and they all tend to take from that one original source, so if you find one that's wrong on a popular lyrics site, guaranteed that version is probably EVERYWHERE. Aside from that, it's gotta be "I've seen the sorrow you were meant for"...has to :P

[synobe12]

The concept of this song is so powerful. I keep it on repeat all the time. Very strong meaning.

[TheSirNigel]

shot at drexel university. wish i had known then.

[MsPrettyWahine]

... I love it! great artists

[bigmarkstop6]

WOW LOVE THIS SONG! LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!

[liamsearle247]

Lovin the foreign exchange, was soo pissed off i had a-level exams both of their london tour dates, :( seems harder and harder to see REAL hiphop/neo soul live these days, especially in UK

[MrMoon360]

The 1 person that disliked this song, clearly doesn't know real music when they hear it.

[keya11100]

man I love this song. Got it in my playlist

[bdockery05]

WOW!!!!

[supastaroftokyo]

her voice is ghostly..

[YoungFenix07]

I person disliked this video so they wouldn't look like a conformist

[Nblood1992]

@YoungFenix07

But it's funny because they conformed with all the other people who don't conform so in trying not to conform, they ended up doing what everyone else does anyway. Great job!

[YoungFenix07]

I just played this song like 45 times in a Row not only is Phonte An a Class rapper hes a great Singer.

[MisterDoubleU1]

Really like this song.

[guitarplayer123]

this song really inspires me to reach out today for a better tomorrow

[Celliam7]

[guitarplayer123]

@Celliam7 nicolay and hip hop rapper phonte

[carawaites43]

@guitarplayer123 oh ok thanx

[guitarplayer123]

@carawaites43 no problem. i wish everyone knew about them!

[Maughn7]

[DJcopper116]

[shaytwah]

[shaytwah]

[truhousman]

@shaytwah like Speak n' Spell, "YOU ARE RIGHT!!"

[saturdai17]

@shaytwah yep that's him

[MaseratiCrid]

[MaseratiCrid]

[thekeyofb73]

[eaplejuice1]

Greatness. Also im a metalhead and this group is great. they got me.

[deephouseatl]

When I first saw this video, I cried. Such a beautiful, yet tragic song. Thank You for making such beautiful music.

[biggzblock]

Besides From 9th Wonder Nicolay Is The Sickest On The Soul Instrumentals

[vadelma123]

@biggzblock J DILLA ??

[SkyBlu3Android92]

[vainsmith]

the foreign exchange & muhsinah make a great a pair of talented artist. i love this song.

[jimichild]

incredibly beautifullll

[jimichild]

so beautiful...this is so emotional

[sawanaki]

cant believe phonte sings

[israel5959]

kool ass video and song...

[Feesharp9er]

@quicktolisten Hyper-DITTO,.!! ears!

[TheTaydachip]

Basically mrpostman, definitely sad!

[MisterDoubleU1]

The Foreign Exchange is one of my favoriet groups

[YouBetterRRRecognize]

Horribly underrated!!!

[evilgenius151]

they told that mothafucka to jump lol!

[gansuta]

wrecking that 7! love asymmetric meters

[bettyboopbbw]

@ mrpostman and others... I concur... this kind of music is food for the soul that the radio doesn't want to expose because it builds character and pushes our children to aspire to be something other than rappers and booty models.

[tommijaijai]

@bettyboopbbw so true.

[MrUniqueosmosis]

@bettyboopbbw even though the guy in the video is a rapper lol i understand what you mean thumbs up

[johnnyluck12]

this shit is HOT....PERIOD!

[ABURANODAIDOKORO]

Pretty tune

I am terrible and like your tunes.

To a song and the usual sound because happiness has been filled

[Feesharp9er]

yummy 7

[EducatetoLiberate978]

Thank You

[Reqluz]

Yo this is one of my favorites off of the album

[DoPEbitcH22]

Amazing album ; to bad they dont play any postive real music on the air waves smh

[matrimonyslim]

super tight go NC 336 ALL DAY

[peppi235]

I Luv her Lego Earrings too

[peppi235]

When i hear the first beats it already gives me the shiver... OMG this song is such poetry

[nameless12345]

OMG thats all i have to say

[etriganz]

I've seen the sorrow were meant for sounds more appropriate for this song.

[Hoodartist86]

This one grew on me. I didn't like it at first, and now it's one of my favorite songs on the entire album....

[spaceboogietv1]

This album is wonderful!

[mariofarrow]

Amazing Song...

-Paint The Sky,Blew!!!

[mrpostman730]

POWERFUL, POWERFUL TRACK.....but we wont hear it on the public airwaves.....so sad........

[bettyboopbbw]

@mrpostman730 I concur... this kind of music is food for the soul that the radio doesn't want to expose because it builds character and pushes our children to aspire to be something other than rappers and booty models.

[v1ncethefunk]

@mrpostman730

not everyone deserves to hear real music like this.

[sovietsentinel]

@mrpostman730 It's sad, because good music hasn't been played on public airwaves since the 70s... hip hop is the most significant and forward thinking genre of music today and we're stuck with the Drakes and Lil Waynes and Soulja Bois that make surface shit, when artists like Zion I, Foreign Exchange, The Roots, Jay Dee, Chiddy Bang, etc remain buried under the rubbish.

[jonathan2002ga]

@mrpostman730 PREACH!!!

[sweetbeetz]

@mrpostman730 sadly true....i would fight to have them on the radio

[asarhene]

i looooooooooove the foreign exchange! this is the first official video i've seen of theirs! I still have goosebumps!!

[chitown3634]

What is the song talking about?

[Mariemayo1]

google the lyrics it makes it easier to understand :)

[Blackgod77]

Watching this video and hearing the melody was one thing but the visual.... WOW I mean I almost shed a tear at the fact that it was soo emotional and you could feel that there was alot going on in the video. like chaos and love.

[sonaiyasmom]

ok, so now i have a debate going about the first line of the chorus. are they singing, "i've seen the side of you weren't meant for" or "i've seen the sorrow you were meant for"? i don't trust a lot of these lyrics sites on the internet.

[sonaiyasmom]

this is a beautifully made video for a really beautiful song ... remember when music videos used to MATTER? when they told a STORY? that's what this clip made me think of ...

[myariete2011]

Whoa! I was on the same track, but they segued into something different. I could relate and it in fact real life. I just didn't think he would jump. I didn't even allow myself to get to that point. I believe in God though. I believe he kept and protected me every step of the way. It is sad, he thought there was nothing else to do and nothing left to lose..

[myariete2011]

On this particular album, Daykeeper, House of Cards, and All or Nothing are my favorite songs, so I was excited to see a video, I had an image or vision of what the video could be, so I am about to see if it was up to my thought process or beyond. I wish this group was more publicized, but then someone might try to commercialize them and they wouldn't be the same. I would like to keep what little real music there is left untainted. I would love to sing with them and honored!

[waldon100]

song is deep..

[waldon100]

Yo i like this, something different

[rocnradio]

i am a man and i think phonte is a beautiful brother..really do. i've always thought muhsinah is beutiful. lover them together

[nygndanyc]

MUHSINAHHHHH YESSSSSSSS

[tlofee]

Foreign Exchange is so dope,I love this group.Question though is Little Brother still a group?And is Phonte still down?Does anybody know whats going on with Little Brother.

[juline91]

@tlofee yea i no right but yea little brother is still a group guess they just went on a break cant wait to they get back on they shit but until then imma be bumpin to the foreign exchange

[RubeksCube]

To me personally LB is phonte 9th and big pooh once 9th left it just wasnt the same and I knew it. But FE is wonderfull and phonte is really shining as an neo soul/R&B singer. Technically Big pooh is solo and so is phonte

[icarrus4u]

I likey!

[grenkuts]

this is why Foreign exchange is the hottest R&B group slept on in 2009!!! I LOVE THEM!!

[ghost4doom]

More like soul group

[andtwonfisher]

This video is amazing and I am in love with Muhsinah

[angelyc1]

Deep. That's all that can explain this song AND video.

[mcneilall]

:56-1:00 ... is nicolay gorgeous or what?! lol!

LOVE FOREIGN EXCHANGE.. PHONTE IS THE REALEST DUDE EVER!

[LinJapanese]

man, this video is intense... i didnt even know they made one for this song. whoa.

[SuperAkillian]

Another slept on group (The Foreign Exchange) with a great video. When will corporate radio understand that THEY are playing garbage.

[static1736]

I think this is my favorite Foreign Exchange song...I love Muhsinah's voice!!!!

[CuRve5000]

C'mon people, groups like this need all of our support. The rest of that camp needs our support as well. Zo, Daren......

[thexcrypt]

clap your hands ladies and gentlemen

this song is a masterpiece

[ArtVandelay1983]

Why haven't I seen any of these Foreign Exchange vids on VH1 Soul or BET Jazz./Centric?

[nusylrae]

Because they (BET or VH1) aren't on that kind of intelligence level. Those small brains on those stations will never comprehend the presence of smart progressive music so it sticks to the idiocracy its used to.

[excruciator000]

I haven't seen any popular TV channels supporting talented underground artists.

[JuggB]

A lot of them refuse to sell out in any way... just sayin.

[memyselfandi2311]

one more thing i love about them - besides the fact that they make awesome music- is that they use everyday people in their videos and not some overmuscled dudes and perfectly shaped ladies.

[Whitwhit313]

hot song

[tourneytike13]

I'm so glad they don't get played out in the mainstream. it's like they make music custom to my liking. Wish they would come to minneapolis!

[SeekoGT]

I'm speechless. Tingles down my spine. I need to buy all their work.

[poogawoog]

How can a song in 7/8 not be dope? Favorite time signature there. I hope one day I can make awesome music like this.

[fyreblazer]

wow...well that was a depressing spin on a song I dint associate with death> I LOVED the song but that was harsh

[RenatoOG187]

I love this song man, Foreign Exchange are Amazing.tks

[Atisuto]

Video def. adds another dimension to an already superb song! BRAVO! 5 stars!

[lateefdameer]

I love this song! there have been some days where I played it over and over again, its hypnotic and inspiring.

[juline91]

foreign exchange is to offical man sooo underrated when the next time they comin to NYC 4real lol

[Deezy94]

They are in NYC tonight, performing at BB Kings in Manhattan!!!! They were in Baltimore last night, and will be in DC on Sunday!

[NotSouledInStores]

[BlueGuru11]

[angelicsyd9]

no she is a actress named Kerri Rose

[BlueGuru11]

Favorite group of all time. They deserve all the recognition and fame in the world. Life is truly not fair. Thank Goodness I'm not in the dark.

[soulreflect]

The concept of the video is so reflective of what Foreign Exchange would do artistically...PERFECT!!!!!!

[tabby2ts]

Foreign exch. is the truth. I love this song and the video made me like it even more.

[JinHyuuga24]

[wufangmastakilla90]

This is the 1st song I have heard from them and I f**king love it :)

[bar2010]

Does anyone know who the actor is that is standing on the ledge? He is so handsome.

[NumberOneHipHopStar]
