New Video: Jussie Smollett – ‘Hurt People’

Published: Wednesday 18th Apr 2018 by Rashad

Jussie Smollett is turning no shortage of stones in support of his debut album, ‘Sum of My Music.’

Having already hit the U.S. morning and daytime TV circuit to crank out live renditions of some of its critically acclaimed tunes, the ‘Empire’ star continues to increase awareness of his inaugural offering by lifting stunning visuals in its support.

In addition to the Swizz Beatz-assisted ‘Catch Your Eye’ and its predecessor, ‘Freedom’ starring Tika Sumpter (click here to watch both), now fans can feast their eyes on ‘Hurt People.’ Shot in the beautiful cities of Johannesburg and Soweto, South Africa, Smollett reportedly hired an all South African crew (fashion designers, cast, etc.) to help bring his vision to life. In a statement, the 34-year-old crooner said:

“‘Hurt People’ in particular is about celebrating the breaking of the cycle, getting out of that mental prison and taking off for home,” he stated. Going on to add, “…when I think of someone who was consistently attacked and could’ve given in it’s Nelson and Winnie Mandela. This video is completely inspired by them.”

    I hope his label gets behind this. The song is catchy and sonically pleasing, lighthearted sounding and perfect for summer. I like the song and video.
