[edit] Biography

The pair first made contact over message boards on Okayplayer.com and began recording and sending music back and forth. Soon after, Phonte and Nicolay formed Foreign Exchange without having ever met each other in person, hence the name Foreign Exchange.

The album, Connected, was released in 2004 and was a showcase for Nicolay's musical talents as well as an introduction to like-minded Little Brother affiliates who guested on the album. The album received strong reviews and the single, "Sincere" featuring YahZarah, was released with a promo video.

On the new Little Brother Mixtape "And Justus For All", Phonte goes over some albums that will be coming out in 2007. There is a second album in store for the group, due out this year, according to Phonte. In a recent interview with thaFormula.com, Nicolay stated that the new album was going to be called "Leave It All Behind."
