Smokey's pov
It was always rough when growing up
Around the hood me and my siblings
Would know I always wanted to become
A singer like my favorite artist Sarah Vaughan lee hooker and etc hell I even was playing the piano when my mother was watching me but I was just banging on it though. My sisters hated me for it I guess you could say music was my first love after all my first song I ever wrote was for a school play I did my teacher was playing on the piano playing some melody as I asked if I could write lyrics to it
She said sure and I did just that
I had a note book full of songs
That I wrote but they didn't make any sense
One topic would switch to another
I saw one of my idols Jackie willson
I wanted to get me and my group signed in Motown records but they said we look too much like the platters with one girl and
The four of us boys I got really upset
A stranger came up to me and said
"You still have songs in your book?"
Yeah why ? I said nicely I didn't wanna be rude
My names berry Gordy
My face was in shock
He was berry Gordy
He looked so young and about my age at that
Your the one that's been writing the songs for Jackie willson ?
"He nods "
I could sign you if you still have the songs you wrote
"He shouldn't have asked that I had thousands of pages of songs that made no sense
Um sure I do but none of them make sense
I said
That's ok I could help with that
