About Little Brother
Little Brother formed at North Carolina Central University as a trio: rappers Phonte and Rapper Big Pooh with producer 9th Wonder, whose chopped soul samples defined the warm, dusty sound of their debut The Listening. The Minstrel Show followed on a major label, a concept album framed as a television variety programme that took aim at how rap was being marketed.
9th Wonder left before Getback, and the group split in 2010 after Leftback, with Phonte going on to The Foreign Exchange and solo work. Phonte and Pooh later reunited as a duo and released May the Lord Watch in 2019. Their verses have always leaned on humour and ordinary detail: jobs, bills, relationships and growing older.
