And actually they still are together...but not by the title little brother...BTW 9th wonder and phonte are going to be performing in DC at the Black Cat on Oct 16(or 19 can't remember atm)...hopefully big pooh will be rollin wit em...then they might do a little brother track
so many aspiring artists on youtube. more bad than good. but if youre looking for an artist that is lyrically talented check this dude out. came across him a few weeks ago and have been following him ever since. just type in Available in HD Week 10- My Zone
Check out Strong Arm Steady-Best of Times you'll see what I mean. I know Phonte starte singing more and more on the second and third Foriegn Exch. Albums( Connected way more my style) but those albums were a little too "next direction" for my taste but Te kills the hook on the SAS record and then tops it off by also spitting the best verse too. It's too bad Phil da Agony spits weakness to open(William Cosby sweaters??? Way to far of a reach) Fortunatley Krondon is able to pick up the sla
Damn LB in top 3-5 groups of all time easily and I think Phonte is easily in the Top 5 of best Lyricists all time plus dude gets extra creds because dude can actually sing with no or very limited use of any if that auto-tunes bullshit. Pooh and Te then went out and proved all the haters and naysayers wrong after 9th left by dropping dope record after dope record
@lightpeacelove Same here pretty much. Haven't seen them since 2007, but it was 3rd or 4th time and were amazing. i had their albums but this 1 idk where it went..but still, I hear ya..this was a phenomenal group, and I'm surprised their last album would be in 2010.
They needed much more recognition than they got. Every friend that I had listen to them, fell in love w/ them. Hopefully we will see some solo work w/ them collaborating. Would be awesome.
@mhaze210 They had some pretty good solo work, esp. Phonte with Nicolay (Foreign Exchange) which was dope.... This album, the Listening and the Chitlin' Circuit mixtapes was my shittt! All my friends I put on to them really felt them too regardless of what kind of hip-hop they were partial too.. I just love how they sound w/ 9th's production, guess that's why I was a bigger fan then..
@lightpeacelove hellyea, i still love listening to Foreign Exchange, it is so soulful...takes me out of a bad mood, like now lol...came back to this song again real quick and saw your reply. this is amazing to listen to while buzzed. lol.
Love rap that sends a message to the kids, communities, jail, and other places like the hoods where we need it. I like how people say just get your money but money isn't everything and watch who you take it from! Do music! Not just for you but for people's heart and soul!
chorus lyrics are so ill. real. seems like whatever i dooo, is not enough for youuu, i sacrificed and gave you my life but you still want mooore.. exactly how i feel abt ppl in my life.. you give them ur all and it's still not enuff, its never enough
@cementprint fuck yeah. make a movement to make Little Brother get back. A movement like people getting behind Conan Obrien. hip hop needs all 3 of little brother to get back. and fucking BUY the albums to support these niggas.
@cementprint Phonte got enough quotables in my opinion ''No stones thrown at the throne that I sit on'' or one of my favorites.. ''I got your head still bobbin and my verse didnt rhyme''!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Peace
That's becuase BET is rule by people who care nothing about the people or the culture; they are just trying to sell records an subvert any strides to positive messages or images that project us in a more favorable light!
"yea you gotta sellout to get pub, thats the bullshit"
gotta love "The Minstrel Show" as an album title. In three words, they defined the fact that you gotta sell out to get publicity. Word... Google Bert Williams.
This is definetley one of the greatest hip hop albums ever. Every track. So underrated

We spent the last year writing rhymes, doin' shows and choppin' records,
And traveled all around the world to spread the message,
'Cause ain't no rest for the weary when it comes to my team,
We only sleep on December the 32nd!
DJ's dissin' the album before they check it
Dealin' with their managers and program directors
And even though I try not to stress it,
Sometimes it feels like a waste of time and not worth the effort!
Phonte is ill on the mic! he goes hard on this.
