History
Fujahtive was originally formed in 1986, when all the original members were still in high school. Jamaican-born lead vocalist Winston Ho-Sang transferred from Oakwood Collegiate to Forest Hill Collegiate, where he met Anthony Goldstein. They bonded over their mutual love of reggae music and decided to put a band together with members from each schools' music programs. Winston Ho-Sang's identical twin brother Wayne Ho-Sang also joined the band. The band has backed up Michael Rose of Black Uhuru and has been the opening act for Yellowman, Burning Spear, Gregory Isaacs, Sly & Robbie, Culture, Linton Kwesi Johnson, Marcia Griffiths, Eek-a-mouse, Shinehead and most recently Luciano (2016). Wayne and Winston Ho-Sang are the father and uncle, respectively, of professional ice hockey player Josh Ho-Sang. Winston's daughter Allison is an R&B singer-songwriter who records and performs as a l l i e. ==Members==
