Zo! getting a good laugh onstage!

Last week I had the great opportunity of hanging backstage with The Foreign Exchange crew for Zo!’s SunStorm CD Release Spectacular.  Now many of you may be wondering what this talented bunch are really like before they hit the stage. Well, we decided to get a little up close and personal with Nicolay, Phonte, Sy Smith, Yahzarah, Darien Brockington and of course the man of the night, Zo! to bring you some funny moments and their great show in the ATL!!! Check out the video and pics!!!

You know the drill: It’s FE + Eric Roberson + Darien Brockington + Rapper Big Pooh + Matt Koza behind the lens = Dope video. We’ve said it many times before, but The Foreign Exchange brand is unmatched when it comes to putting out great music. They haven’t failed yet. Sunstorm – July 27th!
