The Foreign Exchange – Leave It All Behind album preview

Brand new sneak preview to the follow-up to Connected, the geography-defying debut from Phonte & Nicolay as The Foreign Exchange. Connected, as misunderstood by certain hip-hop heads as it was, has always been a personal favorite of mine – so I have high expectations for their new album, Leave It All Behind.
I’ll reserve judgement until I can hear the album as a whole, since the first album’s strongsuit were its sonic cohesion and its completeness as an album rather than a collection of hot songs. But with that said… this sampler sounds pretty damn promising. The subject matter is painfully relevant and the quality of songwriting and musicianship is so necessary in this day and age. A break-up album for the digital area with an organic-leaning sound – now that’s whats up.
