  • Chawa.C

  • these girls you wanna know i like this music

  • phonte is the buisness i gotta facebook status this nigga man where u been at u need to be headlining in london already.

  • Wow man; Im really attracted to the sista in this vid.

  • Love this song!

  • i love you.... i still love you.

  • She needs to find something to do with herself...he's a good man. I rather hear the song than the drama. But I hear men like the drama these days. Just call her if that's the problem. She could call him too,or keep busy. Seriously commenting on this like it's real life. Got me involved in the conversation. I don't talk to other women about relationships they should be talking to their men about their relationships. Answer the man, woman.

  • Man Phonte is the man. I know if that was me.. I would of dumped that bitter moron along time ago. And leave it to the girl to rely on the council of bitter women to give them advice lol.

  • He's so handsome. Nice song. Why do some women act so mean towards the man they love?  Just love....and enjoy the journey! And...stop listening to brick headed friends. :-)

  • 8 people * insert lame joke here *

  • was anyone else laughing extremely hard in the beginning when he said, "i still love you" and did that extra head nod?

  • this is music

  • Heard Rickey Smiley talking about this group one morning while listening to his show and have been hooked ever since, I love quality music!!!!!

  • @gladams01 OH MY GOD. THAT IS THE SAME EXACT MOMENT THAT I GOT HOOKED. Such a small world. And man, I've been bumping this music everyday since. I heard them about 2 years ago. This is real music.

  • that girl is ugly... this song is is dope though.

  • @HailSyria There is nothing wrong with that lady. They use real looking women in their videos not those video hoes who look fake!!!

  • the chick in this video, maybe im wrong, sounds like the same chick talking in "Home" off The Listening....just something i picked up.. i could be wrong though

  • 8 dislikes are the lonely bitter chicks and dudes that can't keep a woman.....

    TFE Forever!!!!

  • male bashing r us!

  • gave me chills....

    

  • I've never heard a song so deep and real. I appreciate the music these two create.

  • I really enjoy there vibe...damn shame you have to search for real music...because they gets no air play

  • This is the real influence behind drakes whole style.This and Slum Village.Real music is still alive in the hearts and minds of few..FE..

  • they r so underrated n its sad that all u get to experience is the 106 n park bullshit! lol

  • 6 thumbs down? WTF is wrong with you!!?? This is a perfect song

  • LOVE THIS!! Lyrics are just right!!! and ladies keep the other ladies out of your business lol or at least don't take what they say as law! Know what and who you have at home! For real! Love your man not the madness!

  • DUMB BITCH!!!!!!!!!

  • Love the shirt.

  • Love FE, LB, Phonte, Nicolay & Kay, Big Pooh....BIG FAN right here!!

  • OH SHIT!!!!!! First off, Let me start off by saying FUCK YOU to all Radio execs who have never played Lil Brother in NY or The Foreign Exchange. My friend in AZ made a mix CD for me and this song was on there. This song is the Shit you understand me? Huh Nuggahs? huh? And it's a fucking Shame me and others never heard this shit!!!! I'm buying every fucking Lil Brother Albulm and The Foreign Exchange Albulms. I feel the same way I did back in like 2003 when I first heard Dwele. Straighfuckngfire

  • I  don't know what took me so long to find The Foreign Exchange but.... I LOVE everything u create!!!

  • my bro doin his thng!!

  • lol i have a friend she looks just like this lady phonte is talkn to in the beginning of this vid

  • My only concern is... and I hate to go there... but why is it once again the dark skinned woman is the negative character in the girlfriends scene??? The one thats portrayed as putting negative thoughts into her friend's head...messing up the relationship...and the lighter complextion friend (with dreads) is very positive about the situation? I'm just saying...I look at Foreign Exchange as a very progressive music group and it suck that even they are portraying these negative sterotypes too SMH

  • @Naughtynoe You looked WAY too into that. It was purely by chance that happened. Aside, I am glad that people are talking and still analyzing the video. Thanks for being passionate about the music!

  • EXCELLENT love this wish it were me. and the women are georgous neat and clear not selling bodies or sex just music. thank you guys!

  • most underrated rappers,

  • Yo I thought Phonte was a rapper and I thought Nicolay made hip-hop beats....am I wrong??

  • @MookieBlaylockify your right but they also are The Foreign Exchange. Every album they have dropped as The Foreign Exchange has been brilliant. What R&B should be nowadays instead of the garbage bull shit they play on the radio nowadays

  • HOTTEST INSTRUMENTALS!! HIP HOP, R&B, POP! EVEN HOTTER MUSIC ON THE LINKS!!! ENJOY! LETS KEEP THE GOOD MUSIC ROLLING! SUBSCRIBE!

  • The diner reminds me of Finch's.... wish you guys would do a hometown show there... but I'll be there at Hopscotch II!

  • yall rocked the Detroit show last night! Love you Phonte, Nicolay and Zo!

  • MAN i can relate to this video. CRAZY! thanks for tha song man.

  • I caught this video on my local station in Detroit. I'm going to purchase this CD... This is real music...

  • I can deeply relate to your song

  • Amazing, I was lucky enough to see them all in Atlanta last year. Seeing them live leaves you in awe. All my love to Foreign Exchange <3!

  • What i love most are the lyrics of this track, likeany track that FE does the lyricism is always relevant and one's that anyone can relate to as for the instrumentals they are on point as usual.

  • that is a FUCKING BAD ASS SHIRT!!!!! where did he get it?

  • This is my favorite song

  • OMG, I KEEP HEARING GOOD MUSIC BY THIS GUYS. IS THE GIRL IN THE GROUP OR JUST PART OF THE STORY LINE?

  • I FREAKIN LOVE THIS SONG!!

  • Both those girls talkin her are single....misery loves company

  • Phonte's inability to articulate his thoughts is pretty disturbing. what's with these brothers not being able to form a complete sentence.

  • @mike7743 wtf... what are you talking about????

  • nicolay's beats are way better than his looks. thank god!

  • i only hope to make music as good as this

  • What camera was used to shoot this video? It looks really good

  • @eddiesbailey panasonic HVX with a 35mm letus lens adapter. glass options varied.

  • I love this song so god damn much. 

  • anyone notice his shirt says "lie" at the end lol, big tune tho

  • The definition of " real music"

  • Yo! They're in Philly at AKA Music (one of the best music shops in town where I bought their latest album) and Silk City cafe'! They know the deal.

  • I love Phonte...he got the money in the bank! aaannn he sweet?! *kisskissz8

  • no 9th ,no phonte, no little brother, I wish they where together again!

  • @fabbeats They are. Check out 9th Wonder's IWWM.(It's a Wonderful World Music) They have an interview with Phonte talking about them working together on a project. I hope Rapper Big Pooh gets down as well.

  • i love this song omggggggggg

  • This Is Tha Jam!

  • Who's That Girl With The Dreds? Anyone?

  • I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE this song. My loc rocking mentor had this on her page.. wooo love it

  • Yet another great song I like by the foreign exchange

  • smh this is such a suckas anthem...im so tired of dude's being suckas and caving into and apologizing to these chicks all the damn time..

    why the hell does he need to apologize to her even when he feels she's wrong??..just to end the arguments and fights? i say eff that..if a chick is wrong she's wrong.. she cant be wrong and then expect me to apologize and say i was the one that was wrong just to make her feel better .!..smh

  • @dopemcee ...You must be single.

  • @dopemcee dang... what chick pissed you off? lol Its just a video. Lawd hammercy.

  • @dopemcee your comment is evidence of your glaring immaturity. Real relationships are imperfect just like the people in them and this song is merely a display of a real man willing to work through the problems and those imperfections. Maybe one day you'll make it out of your grandmother's basement and will get a taste of an adult relationship.

  • @DCI74 all i read was blah blah blah blah..relationship

    all this video is, is a sucker that wants to apologize to his girlfriend even though he doesnt believe he's really wrong but feels he needs to appease her lilly emotions so that she'll feel important and go "okay ill stay"...because we all know the "weak" woman always has to be pitied and never made to feel like they were wrong even if they are...

    thats pretty much what it is

    and fyi my grandma's basemnt is just fine. it has 40" hd tv.

  • @dopemcee lol see that's the difference between you and me, I got a good woman, I own my grandmother's home and have stock in the company that makes those 40" hdtv's so tell your grandmother I said thanks for fattening up my $ portfolio, meanwhile you're content with renting and basement living lol. So your a dopemcee yet have none of your own videos posted out here? hmm perhaps a name change to nopemcee is more fitting.

  • @DCI74 anyone can be what they want to be on the internet...i own a penthouse in manhattan and i make 200k a day..i just choose to live in my grandma's basement cuz i love the couch she has down there...

    let you tell it

  • Just discovered this group. I know where have I been right?

    So so beautiful.

  • Saw FE at BB Kings in NYC and even though the show started late( suppose to start at 7pm), definitely got my money's worth. Phonte, Zo, Nicolay and that fine ass Darien put on an excellent show! What a treat to see Jesse Boykins III there! Loving the new music and keep being true to yourselves and the music because the industry needs you.

  • just move on man the bicth looks like dennis rodman with lipstick in dread locks

  • Dont mean 2 sound dumb but who is nicolay? And did phonte change his alias? sumbody help me out.................

  • @Celliam7 Nicolay is a producer from...SOMEWHERE out of the states ( i forgot sorry) Phonte always been phonte, he was just with little brother (him and big pooh),

    this is just him showing his singing side a lil more.

  • @RastaBearINX thanx 4 the heads up ma......

  • @RastaBearINX correction: Nicolay is a Dutchman

  • @PhoneticElements

    It's not really a correction more like an add on...cause he is from out of the states..which is what I said...so your not correcting it. But yea I looked it up after my comment, born in the Netherlands. Got it.

  • @RastaBearINX true say.. perhaps 'correction' was a poor choice of words. wasnt trynna be rude or nuffin

  • @PhoneticElements nah u good man, im an ass when it come to usin the right words. dont take offense or nothin lol

  • man.. this is true hiphop.. its too bad that songs like this aren't considered legendary in the public eye!.. True music at its best..

  • Just saw Foreign Exchange last night at BB KINGS in NYC, show was off the hook, Phonte is the illest point blank perioaad.

  • Loving the Wu-Tang shirt

  • Nicolay youve got drums!

    The first FE Lp had head necks snapping all around the planet!

    Do not become The Roots. Please!....No more SOFT sounding John Legend grown and sexy with a TINY hint of that bang.

    If you guys continue in this fashion I may as well listen to Jason Derulo or Terence Howard.

    Even Ryan Leslie is attempting to bring that bang - Something That I Like.

    I havent listened to Authenticity yet. Itunes got my money though!

    I hope that it has some bangers!?

  • wow! i found this by mistake---this is great!

  • This IS THE MOST UNDERRATED SINCE THE ROOTS!

  • "Ya'll were like on hiatus!!" LOL sistas sistas SMH....

  • ★☆Shaggy✡ஜ۩۞۩ஜ✡Locks☆★ = 5 ★☆★☆★}}}

  • Oh I love this song and video

  • Nicolay is the smoothest dude man...

  • Phonte did this song in a Reggae style last nite at the show... it was tight as hell... FE should really release a LIVE Dvd...

  • man this is cold smooth

  • no cool hurricane thats Nicolay...lol and im the girl talking in the video to Tays Girl :)

  • I wanna see Phonte in a actin role, he seems like it'd come natural to him lol

  • REAL HIP HOP. That's all I can say.

  • This never gets old to me!! I sure hope I can work it out and see your show in NY Oct. 23rd.

  • This video is too too true. He is doing his thing. Hes making paper. She is getting the paper. What is the problem. Them broads need to shut up.. Usually the one with the most destructive vibe is the one within the worst situation or no situation. Interact ,adapt ,overcome together

  • i love this song...im glad you guys are around making quality music.  there is soooooo much bullshit out here. i dont even listen to the radio anymore. where did "real" music go?...shoot I wanna know.

  • good music right here

  • What's the name of the female lead? She is fine....damn.

  • Wow, I was out the loop for like 2 years and didn't realize that the Foreign Exchange put out the"leave it all behind" album. I just finished listening to the entire thing a few days ago, and it's like the only thing I been listening to,since. Now I'm caught up and can't wait for "Authenticity"

  • Sounds like I hear a little D'Angelo in there from Phonte! Big ups FE...Always delivers!!Dope!!!

  • I Love It.

    thanks shar :)

  • 3:22, A DAWL!

  • FE is phenomenal, we'd love it they would take some time to do some shows in South Africa. Their albums never disappoint.

  • is the guy te talks to at the restaurant mick boogie?

  • @Coolhurricane that is Nicolay, the other half of The Foreign Exchange

  • @FEofficial

    he's the producer right? phonte is a great singer too

  • @Coolhurricane no its niccolay the producer

  • For anyone reading this that's in a relationship, don't put your friends in your business. Thats a sure way to screw your relationship up..... Dope song by the way.

  • this is beautiful song and this guy is so freakin talented

  • loved it! but he should've been calling! That would've had him a more happy woman. It's the little things guys. Gone for 2 wks with not even a single phone call? uhhh you're asking for trouble right there.

  • Like true business, for real, LB was the hottest and most influential, diverse, gutta, rap group that I have heard on this planet. Giving you the daily grind, with a little class & style. I will mos definitely miss that group, and there is even word that The Foreign Exchange will not be together as well, expanding into straight solo projects, as seen with Nicolay and his latest album Shibuya. This is music that our hearts have been needing top hear, Thank You (both) for giving us real music.

  • @badboys239730 Don't know where you get your information from but The Foreign Exchange is very much together, as evidenced by their upcoming third album Authenticity, in stores October 12, 2010 on +FE Music. Thanks for the support!

  • Comment removed

  • @FEofficial I appreciate that UPDATE...I was starting to feel the same way, First the Fat Boys break up, then Little Brother breaks up....I was starting to really lose some hope...I been to all y'all shows whenever y'all come back home to NC and I would've hated to have missed the oppertunity to see these cat perform at least 1 more time....Haven't heard Shibuya, but I'll get around to it...Still Bumping LIAB and LeftBack.... Thumbs up reply! Keep it going, see y'all here soon!!!!

  • @badboys239730 LB broke up?..why?....damn!!!!!!!

    I dream of a man who would love me like this..

    Phonte puts SO many things into perspective!

    Peace and Blessings:)

  • One of my Favorite songs

  • them guys from foreign exchange R very talented!definely real good music

  • I love it, applies to all aspects of a relationship. At the end of the day, I wanna know.

  • The beginning of this song is such a hilarious reality of what reall happens when one dates an artist... HECTIC

  • Well....That's a real situation. I been in that same place he is in this video and have had that same convo on my way out the door, and got the side of the neck when I was aiming for the lips lol. What's a man to do? They played the HELL out of that scene. Well Done!

  • @joejacksun it's tough for a dude. depends on the lady you deal with...she can be extemely difficult to please. that's the reason why a lot (NOT ALL) of ladies want a guy to come 'ready-made'...they need to stop thinking those movies reflect real life. if you believe in any 'Higher-power'...the creator will never place anyone in your life 'ready made'. what you gonna do if you work...you work too much.

  • @joejacksun 2. a man can not fullfill his goals and provide for a family to be...being all up under a damn woman. he should pay attention and nurish her...but she has to be willing to meet him 'halfway'. a man shouldn't be forced to worship her. MAN GOTTA BE PRODUCTIVE and AMBITIOUS. and those damn friends...the minute one of those ladies gets someone...you never see that broad.
