This is for the people who grew up on Tribe Called Quest and Pete Rock & CL Smooth and are now grown.
Dont forget Little Brother(Phonte, 9th Wonder, and Big Pooh)
That's me lol
That's me! :-)
Me too..as a matter of fact, they just released the last Tribe album!!
yes
This song WILL NOT get old. There's just a "freshness" to it.
I never heard on radio not once
He used to sing on the lean on me
The movie
Everytime I play it, at least twice.
You ain’t lying… every time i bump this it just sounds even better 🔥🔥
This song makes my soul smile
BLACK PEOPLE this is what music is, not that hate on you own race, pro gang and drug, self destruction stuff they tell you to listen toooo! GOD BLESS this group of talented artist!
Amen
i tell people all time current "black music" (lil wayne waka) sets music and people back its alarming how dumbed down music is now and how popular it is...its really sad. real music in my opinion like the foreign exchange , dwele , Robert glasper ect should be heard and loved by more people
That's real right there. Good soulful music is time less
Amen Brother Amen, Current music from Lil Boosie, Chief Keef, Drake, etc are fucking up music, it's just stupid how good real music gets overlook for crazy dumbed down shit is just disrespectful to the art of Hip-Hop/R&B. I get that music has to change with the times & reach a new generation but it still doesn't need to be horrible in the process.
Benet Gilbert that's alway bruh. Just had a convo with some people today about how good music is thrown to the wayside... damn shame
Respect for Nicolay for always making great beats!
Yes, Nicolay's been at it for years.
I believe they collaborate more on beats now, but the first FE album Nicolays beats were Dope!
This songs sounds just like LIFE> waking up and feeling alive. that is the best way I can describe this, This is a song that activates my beautiful melanin.
when i listen to current rap, then i hear this and say,"this just better"!
You go hit the nail on the head
AIN'T THAT THE TROOF !!!
Word!!
LOVE THIS COMMENT
im so glad this song has made its way into mainstream in south africa
Kitso Ntuli this joint has mad it to mainstream in South Africa? Outstanding.
In fact, the first time I heard Sincere, their first single was on MetroFM in 2006. It was on repeat back then.
@@kitsontuli2713 my first time listening to Sincere was Metro FM Coca Cola top 40 when they played RnB and Neo Soul. Such an amazing time
its my first time reading this. This song reached #5 on our South African Indie Online Music Chart back in late 2013
I can never stop jamming to this song. Till this day!
Still here in 2023 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
2024 Still 🔥
Whatever Phonte and Eric touches brings me so much joy 😊💜🎵
wish they would flood the radio stations with this type of music... this that good
Absolutely. Can you imagine folks getting upset and rowdy whilst listening to music of this quality? Uplifting...
Exactly! #Vibes
lol the radio playing something that will make us want to unify and live in harmony(pun intended)... that'll be the day
themisses I know what you're saying. It's so uplifting and fabulous! You'd think all people would just groove and live in harmony! Sadly, many people don't like this style of music. Love foreign exchange so much
It'd be a better world
I'm so sorry some of you just heard of these guys , I've been rocking with them for years . This is the real sounds.
I met my wife a barbershop (She’s a barber). We talked for 20 mins and I left. I immediately went to my apartment and told a young lady I was dating I can do this no mo. 6 months later we was married. 20 years later..still going strong. #SheWasBetter
Damn, were you THAT sure you even had a chance with you now wife before you broke up with the other girl?
Jay To add context me and the other woman prior to my wife was doing good. No issues or complaints. I felt like we was together just to be together. But when I saw my wife and heard her voice I knew she was the one. Funny thing was she was in a relationship at the time. I can’t explain it but when I looked at here I felt like I experienced her love before and it was worth trying again.
Our latest video, for "Better" feat. Eric Roberson & Shana Tucker
1 of my top 3 on the project. Tigallo with some exceptional bars he made seem effortless!
Excellent Job!!!!
Feed us!!!!
Loooovvvveeeee!
Love this song and the video is great!!!!t
This song is just so good still listening 2019 & beyond!!! 🎤🎶
Nice track! Why couldn't they play THIS on mainstream R&B radio?
Fuck mainstream music. This is the one right here.
Coz it's too dope
I can't go one day without this song!
Love this song !
awesomeness
This song was my inspiration to leave my toxic relationship for someone who really deserved to be loved right...6 months later n I’m the happiest I’ve ever been in my life being in a relationship ❤️❤️❤️
Same here!
This song is fine wine or pastureized cheese. Only getting better.
phonte is one talented dude yo ... super underated .... never knew homie could sing ....
Ahh Man U sleepin big dog one of the best lyricists ever
+Anakin Flow I remember hearing him with Little Brother and 9th Wonder..you're right dude is super talented. Singing wise he reminds me of Dwele
Daffy Duck
never was sleeping i just didnt know he sang at all ... never heard the foreign exchange records till late .... i was a huge lil brother fan .... but hes dope and i love the FE albums .... hes like a throwback rnb singer
+Anakin Flow he sang on little brother albums too fam
+Anakin Flow Right...but that's him singing on the Little Brother stuff too!! I remember stumbling upon FE on Pandora some years back ("Happiness") and I was sold on dude immediately!! I found Little Brother just a lil' bit later...
eric roberson the foreign exchange teedra moses and deborah bond....have blighted my life...if i have to come here to find real talent in music im in.... and requested these artists for my xmas gifts!!! loves this song and just the total style of your music...my ears say THANK YOU!
I love Deborah Bond's "see you in my dreams" especially. She's amazing.
TEEDRA FAN HERE!
Damn this track make me feel good! Music is LIFE!
Just great music! And shout out to producers Nicolay, J-Dilla, Soulquarians, Dwele, etc., for putting horns (not just brass synths) into their music . Nice touch, nice sound!
Perverted .Alchemist Dwele is a beast tooo.
I love me some Dwele
One of my favorite groups- Little brother brought me here 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Mannnn people don't be knowing 9th wonder started with little brother🤘🤘🤙
Intelligent, soulful hiphop
Not HipHop because they are Singing..........Rapping is not Singing
@@shryve IT has nothing yo do with that. Hiphop is not the way you express but what are you expressing. Erykah badu did hiphop songs singing as well.
Foreign Exchange, Phonte', Eric Roberson, Anthony David, Nicolay, Zo!,
Got nothing but pure love for these Indy Artists......support Indy Music best and purest music to date!
Music doesn't get any better! Salute to Foreign Exchange, Eric Roberson, Shana Tucker, Little Brother, 9th Wonder and the whole team. Great album!
It pisses me off… I wish I could like this twice. All day...
ME TOO!!
Donald King 😂🤣
I know right!! Uuuggghhh!! (sigh)
Just heard this song on Pandora and I can't stop listening to it.
😂😂😂 That's how I found it too!!! I'm OBSESSED!!
me too now I'm hooked
“Bring it back, bring it back bring it back. . . “ PLEASE POR FAVOUR!!! Please bring this music back🎶
Bouncing back and forth from Little Brother to Foreign Exchange... That's my vibe
Man this is the jam EVERYONE should wake up to!!!!
My ears are always blessed when I hear anything Foreign Exchange, I am especially blessed because my love introduced me to their music. What an honor!!!
"Cause it was u not u and I" #realest lyric I ever heard
Just flat out good music
This is a Stepper's cut! Phonte, Nick you are really gifted and talented musicians. The hook and vocal talent is tight. Chicago will make this song a classic. Make more music like this, we step to this in The Chi'. Peace and Love, "King George and Lady V" - "Club Steppin'" Chicago
The head nod is continuous from beginning to end when this drops!! THANK YOU for GREAT MUSIC!!!
It must be a tremendously BEAUTIFUL feeling to know who you are and have that Integrity Shine through in your music . Love this Group
I just had to find this song after my parents were playing this EVERYDAY #thankuparents
why is this song so well put together? I find no flaw and I can listen to it over and over.They are some bad people.
You have been officially ordained an official steppin JAM!
Saw Phonte on several occasions when he was with Little Brother. Love his work. Will continue to support the home team. #nc #central #grownandsexymusic
Chinita Graves NORTH CACKALAKA!!!!!!! DURHAM!! FAYETTEVILLE, DEEP BOTTOM, WALLACE!, S.T.F.U.(S IS 4 STAND)
The flyest breakup song ever!
Phonte + Eric Roberson = Good music
This is a banger 🔥🔥 and gives me them J Dilla / Kanye West vibes 🔥🔥
REAL MUSIC!!!! Thank you!!!! And Eric Roberson has to be THE most underrated artist today..
Real Music for real. Foreign Exchange is even more underrated. Dope artist collaboration.
Just listened to this. CRACK!!!
Told you!!!!
This songs just makes me smile from inside. that beat is sooo like "SMDH" thats deep. If you dont feel this...man your soul is void. #ourmusicisjustbetter
The .move about east side high school
A breath of fresh air compared to the mainstream of music that's currently produced
Yes sir
Absolutely!
I definitely totally agree with what you said!!
Foreign Exchage is SO UNDERRATED. Grown folk music
I know y'all dilla fans and got the j dilla kit in your library! Peeping that slum village hold tight snare. I know......
song is dope is hell, 51 dislikes are you people insane
Different strokes for different folks. Expecting everyone to like it is insane. I do, ijs. Some ppl like their music hard. I could sneak this in rotation to switch up da flavor sometimes.
***** look im well aware, duhhhhhhh im just jokingly talking smack.
+e-boogie this shit is hard! anyone who DIDN'T Like is a questionable Human!
Mr. Adassa exactly ,song hard is hell..
Shana, E-Ro, and my boys Nic and Phonte'...? TOGETHER ON ONE TRACK??? How beautiful is this! If Dwele was on here, I'd go into cardiac arrest. Love this song!
Its almost 2019 and im just discovering this....wow...
Giovanni Ramirez Better late than never. The Foreign Exchange are the truth!!!!
I’ve only just discovered this track in 2022 and I’m already hooked 🔥🔥
I'm 10 years late. Thank goodness for Pandora helping me discover these guys. Musically fulfilled...
This one of my favorite songs on the album. Beautiful video too.
THANK GOD FOR REAL MUSIC. A grown folks groove like this should be all over the radio.
This is a Native Tongues groove with that Neo Soul appeal to it, DOPE!!!!!!!!!
Wow 2022 how I miss this group wow, discovered them on Pandora and they singing with Eric Roberson.
WE NEED/ I NEED more of this in my life! I'll support artists making music like this.

Maaannn...this here brought some light to 2020 for real. Classic music NEVER dies. Like fine wine, just gets better with time. Definitely on my repeat list!💜
Tone Deaf!

They came to Pittsburgh for a free concert it was all that....I am in love with this group!...this track is it....just one...I mean one of my favs...keep them coming. ...bring it back to the burgh....
ALESIA TURNER BLAK& YELLO! BLAK & YELLO!

How am I JUST hearing this song. Been a foreign exchange fan since 2008. Used to put a lot of people on them in college. I came foreign exchange via little brother #REALHipHop #SOULMusic
The video looks like it was fun making...I can only imagine how fun the studio session was.
Damn I LOVE how the drums kick in at 0:45.
Still jamming this in 2019!
I discovered foreign x this year... I kno E.R. from way back... they are onenof my faves. This tune gives me chills.. it's so feelgood !! Real music not chart rubbish!!
There is so much more talent and beauty in this music than the trash that passes for hip hop these days. This is enriching.
My l'il Bruh turned me on to FE like 3 years ago. Didn't know they were from my home state. N.C. BABY !!! (Raleigh/Wilmington to be exact).
Harry Green I THOUGHT DURHAM? ERIC'S 4RM RAHWAY N.J.(SCARED STRAIGHT) JAIL!!
Phonte is from Greensboro. Nicolay is Dutch. Zo is from Detroit.
Soo this song is a cheerful song of her guy cheating, and saying the side chick is "better" than she is. Woah... mind blown.
This song sounds so good, I am beginning to believe that she is just BETTER!!! LOL!
No..his last woman was a narcissist dog him out..he gone and she want him back..hell never go back..she just better.. ain't you Better 🤔
Constant repeat on this jam! FE keeps it groovin on a regular. DFW waitin on the FE return.

I've been following Phonte since Little Brother... Then he hooked up with Nicolay to form Foreign Exchange.
I'm a white boy who loves this girl in this track.❤❤❤❤
So i loved this track so much that I used it in a recruiting video at a Black College Fair in LBC. A student actually came up and wanted to go to NCCU off the video. SO thanks FE for that! Would love to catch a show again. Holla at me when you hit L.A. again!!! - P. Fauntleroy

I love it and love Eric Roberson I had a science teacher named mr. Roberson
I was hot when little brother disbanded but I'm happy to say the foreign exchange is part of the evolution of phonte. S/O big pooh and 9th Wonder-ful
I've loved this song for over 10yrs. Shout out to Masia One Telephone Love for the original track
