Cassie歌手简介:
CASSIE：以一曲《Me & U》横扫纽约乐坛
“You can’t always start at the top.
The key to my madness is,
remember my face,
because I plan on sticking around for a while.”
1986年出生于New London，Cassie的惹人性感与音乐才华继承了菲律宾父亲与非裔母亲的血统。
最近，Cassie仅凭借一支单曲“Me & U”便一路走红，冲击纽约音乐圈之后，在Billboard排行帮上也跃升至前三。
可以说，Cassie进入音乐圈完全是一个巧合。在认识音乐制作人Ryan之后，Cassie的母亲希望她能够录一张CD作为给自己的生日礼物。于是，Cassie找到Ryan，和母亲一起完成了二重唱“Kiss Me”。Cassie的音乐才华打动了Ryan，于是，她得到了与Sony唱片合作的机会。
在步入音乐之前，Cassie曾在Wilhelmina公司做职业模特。她和Adidas、Complex杂志以及Abercrombie & Fitch活动都有过合作。现在在她的个人博客上还可以找到她原来模特时期的照片。
Cassie的音乐节奏感很强，虽然有时会显得有些单调，但她穿透性极强的性感嗓音中和掉了节奏的不足，让人不自觉地跟着音乐摇摆，随着摇摆进入那迷离、放松、性感、挑逗的都市夜生活。
Cassie音乐的另一个亮点是效果虽然复杂但却不吵闹。很多音乐元素被用到单曲Me & U中。其它的，就让你的耳朵自己去享受吧。

R&B singer Cassie got her first taste of the music industry at 16 when she had the opportunity to speak with the producer Rockwilder, a meeting that inspired her to take formal voice lessons. This decision paid off nicely later on, when, after she'd graduated from high school and was working on her modeling career in New York, she became acquainted with producer Ryan Leslie. He encouraged her to pursue music more seriously, and in January 2005, Cassie's mother's request for a song provided the impetus to go into the studio with Leslie and record one. Tommy Mottola heard Cassie's work and signed her to a management deal, and with Leslie as her producer, the young singer joined P. Diddy's Bad Boy Entertainment in 2006. That same year, her self-titled debut album was released; "Me&U," its lead single, reached the Top Ten.
