At the age of 14, he formed a singing group called Four Stories High. They were a tribute to The Miracles group. As he was getting older, people were saying that he looks like a Young Smokey and sounded like him too. He thought that was so great to be told in Alphonse sings Smokey. He met Smokey in Chicago in 2007 at a show of his; Took a photo together and gave him his card. In 2008 he got an email, it was The Miracles saying they needed a new lead singer.
