Cassie

Casandra Elizabeth Ventura, the New London, Connecticut singer known as Cassie, also dances, acts and models; on Bad Boy she broke through with the 2006 single "Me & U."

Cassie’s story starts in New London, Connecticut, and her music starts with Ryan Leslie. The producer met her in 2004 and put her on his own label, NextSelection Lifestyle Group. Sean Combs saw the full package and moved quickly: a joint venture with Bad Boy Records released her debut single, “Me & U,” in 2006, and suddenly the world had a new obsession.

“Me & U” climbed to number three on the Hot 100, and her self-titled debut album (2006) peaked fourth on the Billboard 200. “Long Way 2 Go” kept the attitude coming, and later singles, “Official Girl” with Lil Wayne and “Must Be Love” with Diddy, kept the runway tied to the speakers.

Cassie is what happens when fashion timing meets hit timing. Bad Boy polished it, but she walked it like she owned it.
