Charlie Smarts is a member of Kooley High and Inlfowential.

He recently released his solo project f'alex online to the joy of many listeners.

F’Alex is the coming out party for Charlie Smarts, although amazing together Charlie (whose real name is Alex Thompson) shows that the emcees of Kooley High can shine just as bright when doing their own thing. F’Alex is a fun, upbeat, yet introspective album that is a journey through love & relationships both sexual and otherwise through Charlie’s eyes. The title F’Alex which stands for “F*&%k Alex” is a play on words in that it represents the sexual “phallic” and also an allusion to his experience in the rap game due to the fact that people either want to fuck with Alex or they say “Fuck Alex!”. Production is provided by the production team of Kooley High’s Tom Foolery and Sinopsis with some assistance from others as well.
