God, I hope not. His current production style is almost as bad as his MC skills. Maybe worse (so much of Graduation only sounded good for two spins...e.g. "Champion," "The Glory").

i don't think it's danja on 'official girl'. sounds like the same dude from the tiffany evans - 'girl gone wild' intro and that one was produced by brian kidd.

how is that Tiffany Evans album?
― Alex in Baltimore, Sunday, 20 April 2008 15:54 (sixteen years ago) link
most Hot Chip-like
??? I've only heard a few Hot Chip singles, so if those aren't representative of their sound, ignore this, but what exactly does that mean? Are you talking about the production or the vocals? The HC songs I've heard sounded kinda soulless, and I wouldn't call "Official Girl" remotely soulless (or at the very least, it's no more soulless than any other Cassie song).

Hot. This song has grown on me in a huge way, it's so sweet.

The best teen-pop/R&B album I've heard in a long time (not that I hear all that many on a yearly basis).

CORRECT, especially if you add "here, at my job" to that parenthetical.

I just heard Cassie's version of Official Girl and it basically sucks. The first verse is overly clumsy and her voice sounds weaker than ever. Maybe it would have sounded better to my ears if i hadn't heard Karina's version... Her voice is a lot sweeter to swallow than Cassie's. Tyhe sond itself is bril though.
― Christyles, Friday, 20 June 2008 14:36 (sixteen years ago) link
Cassie's voice is extra weak and her upcoming 'Official Girl' is going to bomb, she has better tracks on the new album like 'Thirsty' and 'Turn The Lights Off' but this is SOOO a thinly veiled attempt to express her like, feelings on her suspect relations/ship with P Diddy/Puffy. She's really hot tho, I'm sure that will work out for her. She's not the new Ciara because she can't dance and doesn't have a constantly successful production team.

i dig "addiction," but that's also rong
― Tape Store, Friday, 20 June 2008 21:58 (sixteen years ago) link
Cassie's album bombed on a real note, I just think when working with her the production team is inconsistent they don't look at the bigger picture, they focus on one song and hope it'll carry everything else. Ciara's voice is just as weak. They're both wrongses.
― VeronaInTheClub, Saturday, 21 June 2008 01:03 (sixteen years ago) link
Was listenin to Thirsty, and maybe it's cos i'm runnin a bit of fever, but for a few precious moments i thought i was listenin to aaliyah.

^^That picture doesn't properly display the fitness (this is true, great looking woman etc), in that pic she looks like an off duty/desperate crack fiend. Here's better... http://men.style.com/slideshows/mens/standalone/gq/feature/030108/cassie_ventura/00007f.jpg Chick truly has looks on her side, Ciara may look better these days but she's no Cassie. Also am tired of the Aaliyah comparisons, Aaliyah WAS and still is far and beyond different and better to some of the girls coming in the game right now. Some may border on her style but not quite.

ciara looks mad anorexic lately tho, dunno why she lost weight she was looking amazing in the "Promise' video
who's really compared cassie to alliyah?
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 12 July 2008 02:16 (sixteen years ago) link
^Ciara's been signed up for some modelling contract on the side. Apparently thats code for drop a hundred pounds so you look like the protein drip should be your friend. At first the Aaliyah comparisons where just based around Ciara because 'they dance and sing' but then Cassie came in and people said she was trying to move in on Aaliyah's sound. Just random blogs and stuff there's a lot of hate from Aaliyah fans who think Cassie is dedicated to trying to rip off Aaliyah in terms of style and looks some are super paranoid and think she even moved to NYC to be like Aaliyah (a stretch to say the least)....

no more leaks - we have enough to comprise the whole thing already, and if they all make it it's album of the year easy - bring on the damn album already! i hunger for PRODUCT

hang on did we ever talk about '2 the morning'? that song is so amazing, those cut-up backing vox and lurching beats and disquieting 808 pulses. waitaminutewaitaminutewaitaminuteyeah - everything i do i be makin' them stare...
'official girl' and 'thirsty' both have such awesome middle 8 pay-offs:
and i ain't makin' ultimatums i'mma tell you like it is verbatim

ooh i got you dreamin', wishin' you was in the deep end here we could be fully submerged hmm - i think about it, i doubt it, should make you live without it and keep you dying of thirst - i'm just playin' with you!

Album has been pushed back to early '09 I hear. Makes sense, Cassie can't really compete with all the big names releasing 4Q '08 like Beyonce, Cici, Keri, etc.
― The Brainwasher, Thursday, 7 August 2008 04:30 (sixteen years ago) link
What the fuck?! :( She could release all the leaks and still have the best album of the year!

the leaks are good, but 08 has been an excellent year and it's getting even better in the 4Q so....

it's really great. also this 'over it' demo sounds so promising. this really makes me sad.

the girl on 'over it' doesn't sound like cassie at all, at least the version i heard.
no, you were the right the first time. however, i do approve of young dro on the new '2 the morning' mix.
there are also some good songs that didn't make it to the first album, 'in love with u' especially
