smoke damn near started fts...with some help...at least, that's what I was told....I don't know how true it is....
Once upon a time....
There were 3 people that REALLY started FTS....Smoke, J-Dub & D-Sane. When I got out of jail in 1996 we all started working on cuts together....plus they had done a ton of songs to my beats while I was locked up. The group name was actually left up to me....I remember the collect call from King County Jail all too well.....
(D-Sane)...So Smoke, what are we gonna call this group?
(Smoke) I was thinkin' Full Time Soldiers.
(D-Sane) Really?
(Smoke) But we can call it whatever YOU want to call it.
(D-Sane) Well let me think about it.
Later I decided that it would be cool and we ran with it. Damn....I got hella old school cuts sittin' around on 4-track tape (but I don't have the machine anymore to listen to them) where it's just the 3 of us doin' cuts. There was no BD, no Villain, no Drama.....nobody else....just us.
