IN BRIEF: Baltimore-born and bred Scooter Smiff, 13, might do it all—dance, rap, write, choreograph and act—but he says that he’s just a “regular kid.” But “regular” he is not; his first taste of the big time came at age 5 when he performed on Showtime at the Apollo. The big turning point in his career came when Scooter met R&B superstar Chris Brown. “Chris was looking for a 2nd kid for his Grammy performance, we were introduced and the he rest is history,” states the smiling teen-ager. Scooter was quickly signed on to perform on the Grammy Awards with Chris and soon-there-after went on to dance and rap on Chris’ recent year-long “Up Close and Personal” tour. He also performed in Chris’ “Kiss Kiss” and “Wall To Wall” videos.A studio was installed on Scooter’s tour bus so the teen sensation could record his debut album and not miss a beat on tour. Scooter is also an accomplished actor who played Daniel on the third season of the hit show Lost and makes his dramatic feature flick debut with Gardens Of The Night where he plays a abused child named Young Donnie; the film will be released this winter. Scooter’s first single is the title track “HEAD OF MY CLASS” featuring Chris Brown and Fresh To Def; the CD is set for an early ’09 release & features production work by The Underdogs (Chris Brown, Jordin Sparks), Dre and Vidal (Ciara, Usher, Mary J. Blige), Carlos “L.O.S” McKinney (J. Holiday, The Dream), Herbert and others on his debut album. While Scooter is ready to kick-start his run at the charts and already shines on the small screen, he remains humble and reminds other teens to keep their priorities straight. “Something I would like to tell teens is that if they’re a musician--or whatever they may do-- they should remember that their parents always support them, so they shouldn’t be afraid to talk to their parents,” says Scooter, whose name is a mashup of the first names of parents Michael and Shontay. “I know that a lot of teens are kind of rebellious sometimes, but just keep your support behind you and keep God number one and follow your dreams, don’t ever give up. That’s been my stronghold for the last five years.” You can obtain more knowledge at www.scootersmiff.com. Go here for entire bio.
