Nicolay and Phonte are still pushing Authenticity, their third album as The Foreign Exchange that I reviewed (and loved) last year when it dropped in October. And like their previous videos, the one for "Authenticity" is heavy on the storytelling and mostly follows the lyrics sung by Phonte throughout. The big difference here, though, is that only Phonte makes a brief guest appearance in the video as actor James Paul Schwartz and a series of females remain the focal point. It's a gripping set of visuals that you will have to watch through to the end or else you won't really understand what's happening.
Authenticity is out now.
