专辑简介

The Foreign Exchange first "met" in mid-2002, when Phonte (who resides in North Carolina and is also a member of the underground rap trio Little Brother), heard some of Nicolay’s music online and asked to rhyme over one of his tracks. When Big Pooh of Little Brother, lent his vocals to the track, the song became "Light It Up," and was featured as a B-side single for the group’s acclaimed 2003 effort, The Listening. "Nic was sending me some of the most beautiful stuff I’d ever heard in my life," Phonte says emphatically. "They inspired me so much that I just had to do something over them." The end result is Connected, a gorgeous and reflective blend of hip-hop, R&B, and electronic soul.
　　While Phonte serves as the duo’s main vocalist, the group is quick to point out that Connected is not a "Phonte solo album," and is instead an ensemble record with Nicolay and Phonte acting as the project’s conductors. With guest shots from up and comers Critically Acclaimed on the churchy, organ-driven "Hustle, Hustle," and neo-soul songstress Yahzarah contemplating lost love over the melancholy vocal harmonies of "Sincere," Connected finds Nicolay and his multi-talented counterpart uniting artists from different genres under a united theme of good music.
　　这两个人一个是荷兰的DJ，一个是美国的MC，他们在网上的一个BBS里面相识，然后就想一起制作一张专辑。
　　那个荷兰人负责制作曲，然后把东西寄给这个MC让他作词，然后这个MC再把填好的东东又寄给这个荷兰的DJ，再这个过程中两人从来没有在电话中甚至是面对面的交流过。
　　这张专辑听起来是很另类，rap的成分不是很多，但是很有味道，还是适合喜欢地下饶舌或者是另类饶舌的人听。
　　专辑发布与2004年获得了地下饶舌界的推荐。
