04/09: Cassie has "Cocooned Into a Butterfly" says Diddy
According to Billboard.com, Cassie will be planning on dropping her sophomore album in September. After selling about 321,000 copies of her self-titled debut in 2006, Diddy claims the new album "is going to really, really catch people off guard." She has a new single out produced by Danja (Danity Kane, Britney Spears) called "Official Girl" that should receive radio play soon.
Despite the success of the hit single "Me & U" selling more than 1 million digital downloads, Cassie received some less than fantastic reviews after poor television and radio performances. "I don't think she was ready," Diddy says. "I think that we threw her into the spotlight without the artist development--that goes on with a lot of new artists. We pulled out, we took our time, we developed her for like, a year-and-a-half. People are just going to see her there and be like, 'Wow she's really cocooned into a butterfly."
I hope that Cassie can add to the success that Bad Boy has had this year, thus far.
