    True, but the thing has pisses me off is that he doesn't tour with em. I think thats where the hostility comes from.

        Guys are acting like it's a crime for two rappers to want other producers on their album.
        So true.

            Does it mean he has to produce every track on every album for the rest of their rapping careers?

            I agree. My thing is that these dudes come off as SUPER arrogant. Folks have been reccommmending these kind of changes from day one...and they've been dogging their own fanbase for it from day one. Everybody has been saying that their sound is a little repetitious, and they've been telling folks to take their opinion and shove it. In their lyrics...in interviews...on blogs...everywhere you see LB, you see a rant about we do what we do and we aint changin up for nobody. Now it's like oh yeah...F that sound. lol.

            IMO, theres absolutely nothing wrong with diversifying their sound. I just have a problem with the high and mighty attitude they've copped when their own fans have suggested it. The wording just makes it sound like it ain't all love in the camp, and I've seen that happen first hand. I've seen disproportionate funds break up the BEST of freinds in a group. Producer royalties and publishing >>>>>>>> the artists royalties and publishing rights.

                He doesn't tour with them cause he makes beats but he still dj's for them for some things. And like HM said, the problem I have is that if you are going to criticize someone then you need to look back on yourself, especially Pooh. I don't know how they can go on as Little Brother when a major part of the group is gone. That's like A Tribe Called Quest going on without Q-Tip or Phife.

                If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                    Maybe this is another parody.
                    "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

                    "You'll not find more penny-wise/pound-foolish behavior than in Major League Baseball." - Rob Neyer

                        Primo is producing on the album...

                        as for the same producer doing the whole album being a bit boring... not IMO... "The Minstrel Show" proved that an album is not boring with one main producer on the entire thing.

                        Also, I don't like the way Poobie is talking about 9th, like Poobie has really done anything to warrant that kind of talk. He doesn't even touch 9th Wonder, and without 9th, Khrysis, or Illmind, Poobie would not be considered an enjoyable rapper to listen to at all... 'Te is the real brains behind the good lyricism.

                                    Phonte:

                                    To dispel the rumors, no, Little Brother is not breaking up. When one member leaves a duo, that's called a breakup. When one member leaves a trio, that's called an evolution. But no one has officially left the group. We're still here, and we're still moving forward.

                                    I know he was trying to clear things up.. but I think the bolded portion makes it sort of confusing. Oh well I just can't wait till the album so I can see if I am a true L.B. fan lol.

                                    Edit: Woo hoo! A new Foreign Exchange album will be released this summer or next fall.

                                    Edit #2: Great interview.
