CASTINGHUB Actor Participates in Thought Provoking Music Video

CHICAGO - July 8, 2013 - PRLog -- After his prolonged hiatus, Lupe Fiasco returns with a bang with his new video #1234. While the controversial inclusion of the KKK costume has sent everyone into frenzy, the young actors in the view, one of which is CASTINGHUB’s own Blayne Smith, are the real scene stealers of the video and have people asking who they are. Even though Blayne Smith doesn’t have any lines in the video, the 5 year old displays superb acting, helping to contribute the powerfulness of the overall video. His frank and innocent portrayal in this video is both inspiring and thought provoking.

#1234 has been described as controversial, while others applaud Fiasco’s latest work as nothing short of an artistic performance piece addressing the issues that are pressing American society. Tackling topics of materialism, media’s ever growing presence in shaping young minds, and the hot button issue of ethnic and social relations is never easy, but the symbolism in this video does so seamlessly and has everyone talking.

The Chicago native artist has made a name for himself by going against the stereotypical image of rappers and hip hop artists, instead choosing to using his status as a rising star and artist to contribute to and be a pioneer of the conscience hip hop movement, focusing and addressing social issues of the day.

With such exposure and presence of talent at such a young age, expect to see more of Blayne in the future. CASTINGHUB is proud to have discovered such talent is working hard to make sure that everyone knows of him.
