Phonte (b. Phonte Coleman) is an American rapper and a member of acclaimed North Carolina duo, Little Brother. His rhymes tend to be no-frills tales of working-class life. In addition to records by Little Brother, Phonte has also released a collaboration album with Dutch producer Nicolay under the group name Foreign Exchange, entitled Connected, and appeared on numerous records by other artists, most notably from the Justus League collective. He has recorded R&B-flavoured output as a singer under the name Percy Miracles.
Phonte often collaborates with members of the Maryland-based Low Budget Collective. He has been featured on DJ Shadow's release, titled The Outsider. Phonte has also spoken of his up-coming group called G.I.M.M.I.E. (Great Individuals Make the Most of Everything) with fellow Justus League members Chaundon and Rapper Big Pooh.
Phonte has garnered some controversy with statements he made in his blogs about rap fans. He is a self-proclaime loser and hater ad feels he should have fame despite the lack of talent. After the flop of his next album he is looking to start a career as a high school gym teacher, but he will continue the blog to smear more hate on people better than him like Three Six mafia and Webbie.
