Help: Nicolay/Foreign Exchange/Phonte/Little Brother

Can someone tell me what the relationship is with Nicolay, The Foreign Exchange, Phonte, Little Brother and Darien Brockington is? Is this one group with several members sort of like P-funk with it's various groups?

The Foreign Exchange is one group (Nicolay and Phonte) and Little Brother another (Phonte, Big Pooh and 9th Wonder) but the two collaborated over the years. TFE name then became a label and that's where you get artists like Brockington, Zo!, Yahzarah and Sy Smith.

A brilliant collective. I was obsessed with Zo! and Nicolay's music several years back.

Thanks. It is all a bit confusing.
