Chicago Rap Duo Making Satirical Video To Draw Attention To Homelessness

(CBS) -- Some young Chicago performers took their act to an unlikely place recently, Lower Wacker Drive, to deliver a message.

Chelsea Rendlen and Kimberly Michelle Vaughn comprise the rap duo, "This Is Our Career."

On a recent sunny Saturday afternoon they were dressed up, and strutting with style right past a homeless man, who was actually a young actor working with them along with another friend working the camera, on Lower Wacker Drive.

Chelsea says the point of their satirical video is that "society walks past homeless people and we don't even bat an eye, we ignore them. And we're all '99' we have to come together and realize that this is a problem."

Their video, which they hope will help the homeless, should be available on YouTube this summer.
