Cassie took to the stage twice to perform at the ❝Lovers & Friends❞ festival in Las Vegas over the weekend, doing bare minimum vocals but still managing to put the crowd in a chokehold. She is going to perform ❝Me & U❞ for the rest of her life since it is literally the only song she is known for. More interestingly, she got an hour long set at the festival despite only having two memorable songs. Her non-singing self was placed high up on the bill before legends like SWV and even Kelis. Pretty privilege certainly still exists.

Why so negative? She may be lip-syncing but her performance was amazing. The looks, choreo and stage presence was dope! She performed for 10 minutes, not 1 hour. She did: Boys, Official Girl, Long Way To Go and Me & You. Something that we have not seen from Cassie ever. It seems that she now finally feels secure about herself since Diddy is gone and she became the mother of two. I'm a fan of really big singers like Keke Wyatt, Beyonce, Nivea, K. Michelle, Keyshia Cole, Mary J. Blige, Chrisette Michelle, H.E.R. etc. but I also appreciate Cassie for her music. And this was her moment. No need for shade.

DeleteIf you look up some vids from the crowd you can tell she is singing live. She is sounding good. She will never be Mariah or Whitney but no one is saying she should. There is a lane for her so I don't get this shade. Like the comment above, her set was about 15 minutes. I'm hoping this wil bring on new music from her.
ReplyDeleteFirst and foremost, Jealousy doesn’t go with what you’re wearing. Cassie has always stayed in her lane, flourished and never proclaimed to be a Mary , Mariah or Whitney . She has a cult following ( 9 million Instagram followers ) so it’s obvious that people still love her for more than what you believe to be a lack of vocal prowess. She killed her Vegas performances and the audience were losing their minds when she stepped on stage .
ReplyDeleteAnd for the record, she’s “PERFECTION PRIVILEGE”.
In all honesty i recorded the whole performance video on YouTube and being in that presence of cassie u can really tell her confidence was flowing through me and my friend kept telling each other that she looks and sounds so good and we both enjoyed her performance and a lot of ppl showed up to her stage when she came on!! So if u weren’t there at the show u can’t say anything negative bc u weren’t really there to feel the performance i was screaming the whole time bc she gave it all the way through!!!
