Seven years.
That may not seem like a long time on paper, but in ‘industry theory’…it’s a lifetime.
From the unexpected rise of Rihanna to the ground breaking arrival of Lady GaGa, the last seven years have seen Cassie watch acts she once considered contemporaries (or had never heard of) become music juggernauts…while her brand watched from the sidelines.
So, why has it taken so long for her return to music?
Her interesting explanation below…
Cassie has set her sights on a duet with ‘Teenage Wasteland‘ starlet Lana Del Rey.
Open up on her desire to work with the Interscope stunner during a piece for ‘Forever LA x Cassie’, her comments come weeks after the release of her brand new mix tape ‘Rockabye Baby‘.
Find out what she said below…
Monotone ‘Me & U’ maven Cassie has been hot and heavy on the promo trail for her latest effort the ‘RockAByeBaby’ mixtape.
Indeed, enlisting top hitmakers Wiz Khalifa, Rick Ross, and more to assist with her Bad Boy-sponsored collection of whispers, Miss Ventura is now bringing fans in to view behind-the-scenes action of the mixtape’s making.
See it all below:
As far as the critics go, Cassie has scored a winner with brand new mix tape ‘Rocka Bye baby’.
Of course, while her vocal limitations will see her struggle to deliver its gems live, there’s no doubt this release has made the wait for her return well worth it.
Thematically deep enough to be taken seriously by the Hipsters but catchy enough to have the Pop fiends swooning, there’s a lot R&B’s leading ladies could learn from the project.
So, after giving it a few spins here, we decided to share one of our favorite songs from it with you guys today.

‘King of Hearts’ hitmaker Cassie may be surrounded by a team of paid staff who encourage her vocal performances without remorse, but in other facets of the young Grammy-winning nocalist’s life, she seems to be in tune with the truth.
Evidence of such can be found in her latest interview with hip hop publication ‘XXL’ magazine. When asked where she fits in a world of Beyonces, Rihannas, and Katy Perrys, the Bad Boy beauty was surprisingly forthcoming and showered praise on the three pop titans.
See her comments below and also hear her weigh in on how she hated her one and only hit ‘Me & U’:
