Must Listen : Cassie – ‘King Of Hearts’

Published: Friday 10th Feb 2012 by David

It may be hard to believe, but it’s been 7 years since Cassie released her self titled debut album.

So, it’d be fair to say that the arrival of new music by the star will be welcomed by those in tune with the her journey, which has seen her play anything but musician in recent years.

Now listen to her new single ‘King Of Hearts‘ below…

 

Now this is how you make a dance number!

Simple without being reductive, if ‘Hearts‘ is any indicator of what the rest of her album sounds like, she can definitely count on our support.

While her voice is just as thin today as it was when she first debuted, the production’s vibe actually compliments this, giving the entire track a cool and laid back feel.

In short, we’re really feeling for this and can’t wait to hear more from her.

Well done Ventura.

    Billboard Dance Club Charts no.1 for sure

    I honestly wasn’t expecting the song to be this GREAT.
    It’s so now, but not repetitive.. & it compliments her voice.
    give it all 10s. Now if she could just get some damn PROMO

  11. JP February 10, 2012

    Very cute. Glad she is finally releasing premium music again. Her other releases have been pretty substandard to date.

    Hope the rest of the album is consistent.

  12. BigTeam Ciara February 10, 2012

    Loveee it Cassie

  13. RYK101 February 10, 2012

  14. Erik February 10, 2012

  15. itsbey February 10, 2012

  17. YOOSONDALOOSE February 10, 2012

    Ohhhh it is good!
    Didn’t think it would’ve turned out like this! Owwwww!

  18. Dustin February 10, 2012

    Kinda sounds like Annie. I’m def into the beat and the way it crescendos. I can see it within the top 40 on the hot 100, even top 20 but not much higher. This is def primed to be a #1 smash on the club charts though

    I’m into it.

  19. JER February 10, 2012

    FIRE! This is what Brandy and Monica shoulda came with

  20. BitchIcantevenspellwelfare February 10, 2012

    Yasss Cassie!

    I agree with Sam, THIS is what GOOD dance music sounds like!

    She.did.that!

  21. Sweetnothings78 February 10, 2012

    Sam knows good music and bad in fairness and know ones saying cassies got octaves coming out of her a*** but she does good music.
    .
    And this song is brilliant, it’s like she’s come over all u & me but fresh and 2012.

  22. Gumaro February 10, 2012

    YES! WOW!!! This is SOO HOT! Cassie is gonna change the game, we need a different sound on the radio!! This is that NEXT sound, worldwide sound! YES CASS!!

  23. voneeluv February 10, 2012

    not my kinda of music…i like r&b oh well next. perfect song for her though as with rhianna these tracks cover up vocal inabilities.

  24. Sasha February 10, 2012

    I don’t usually like club songs but this smashes. It’s such a simple beat with simple lyrics but I love it. Great one Cassie. Keep it up.

  25. social1 February 10, 2012

    I like it!

  26. lyric commander lee February 11, 2012

    i dont get it – its ok at best. well see it live to determine

  27. number1k9 February 11, 2012

    I don’t know why people are getting all hot about this song. Hell Cassie in general. Sorry but this song will fail. It is not hot. maybe she’ll get some club airplay if she’s lucky, I cannont hear this on Top 40s radio.

    And before Cassie supporters or stans (does she have them?) come at me, tell me what other artist takes almost 6 years (in August) to release a their 2nd album/follow up to their debut album?

    I liked “Official Girl” WAYYYY better than this!
