Just yesterday, Cassie’s new single, “Official Girl” surfaced on the internet. The new single, produced by Danja and penned by The Clutch, is the first single from Cassie’s sophomore effort. The thing about it is, 16 year-old Karina Pasian recorded the song as well. Karina (who is signed to Def Jam) has been making waves with her song “16 At War” and can throw down on the piano.
I actually believe in this song and I think it’s a good a look. Vocally, I’m not really impressed with either version, but I know that I do like Karina’s voice. I think that it’s just the vocal arrangement and production is meant to be underwhelming, so that’s why I’m not really impressed with either. But what do you think? Who sang it better?


Damn…@ 166 she did this song when she was 14?? That says alot. The girl has chops, can’t wait to hear more from her because like I said “Slow Motion” stays on repeat.
Cassie can sing it better because she has a sweeter and softer voice and ppl cassie can sing the only thing is she has Stage frights and that’s when her voice get’s a bit out of hand. Come on she’s a human being, nobody’s perfect we all make mistakes.
Karina has a deeper voice but I choose Cassie’s version and her video shoot is going to be cool because she is back and Improved and FRESH!!!!!
GO CASSIE YOU ROCK AND YOUR PRETTY AND A LIVELY PERSON!!!!!!!
Cassie does it for me. I agree with peeps who say Cassie makes it a lil’ more smooth and sexy. ‘Ol girl Karina just does to much at the end…..the song doesn’t call for all of that. It’s not a Mariah balad LOL

i didnt even have to listen to know KARINA sounds better.
Cassie has no personality in her voice.
she sucks. period. end of discussion.
I think that karina’s version was so much better. For the simple fact that Cassie can’t sing and she whispers her songs to get by.
I think of course that it was karina and cassie can noty sing she talks and you canj bearly here what she is saying and cassie is noyt her competion .
she is going to go far and she is just getting started .
Karina is def a better singer with better range and runs. But Cassie harmony is amazing because her voice is so smooth and soft. Karina’s version is better because she actually had the ability to ad lib, but if she had harmony like cassie it would be amazing.
i think cassie actually sounds better in this song.
i like both but karina sounds louder and betta but i still am a fan of tha song
Cassie’s voice suits it da lyrics she sings, and Karina suits da lyrics she sings coz she has a stronger voice (Cassie is sayin after a year its tym 2 make it official, Karina is sayin im never gonna be unofficial) I like both and i listen 2 both, but Cassie’s is more commericial (less empowering) so i think her’s will b made bigger. . .
i`ve been a Cassie fan since before ME && YOU, and was just put on to Karina a couple months ago. However, I heard Karina`s version first and I loved it. Then I heard Cassie`s. It was okay I guess, she rarely sings and mostly talks in a sensual way. She sounds kinda off beat at first, everything is kinda jumbled. Karina brought more power to the song. I love it =]
OH NO CASSIE CAN’T SING FOR ANYTHING SHE WAS A “ONE HIT WONDER” now back to my point now MS. KARINA PASIAN blew that song she has great vocals and she seemed more into the song. Cassie is so lame she needs to go back to modeling even though she wasn’t that great at that because she was to skinny ewww you can see her ribs so not sexy! KARINA GIRL KEEP DOING YO THANG BECAUSE YOU ARE GOING TO GO ALOT FURTHER THAN OTHERS AND FOR THE PEOPLE THAT THINK THAT CASSIE SOUNDED BETTER OH NO GO CLEAN YOUR EARS OUT NOW. NOW I DIDN’T LIKE EITHER LYRICS THAT MUCH BUT, LIKE I SAID KARINA ALL THE WAYYYYYYYY!!! PEACE OUT HATERS AND BROADS
OH AND ANOTHER THING WHO CARES IF SHE SOUNDS LIKE TIFFANY EVANS WHATEVER!!! ITS ABOUT WHO SOUNDS BETTER KARINA OR CASSIE NOT WHO SOUNDS MORE LIKE TIFFANY EVANS. BUT PERSONALY SHE SOUNDS BETTER THAN BOTH GIRLS
Karina Pasian’s was much better. I like the lyrics of the song and she rode that track like a beast. I never cared for Cassie’s vocals much anyways, although she has an okay voice. Karina’s sounded better. Another alternative to the song is to have them sing it together. And have it like a Monica/Brandy thing in the video with them trying for the same guy….both trying to be his official girl. But like I said, Karina murdered that song if you put her up to Cassie. She could probably take ANY Cassie’s songs and murder them all over. lol.
~~Quaysa~~
SO CASSiE STEPPED HER GAME UP BUT THE THING ITS NOT THAT SHE CANT SING SHE HAD NO VOCAL BALACNE OR TRAINING WHICH IS WHY HER VOICE COMES OFF AS SOFT [YEW DIGG] WHERE AS KARINA PASIAN HAS BEEN DOIN DIS THANG 4EVER I LIKE BOTH VERSIONZ ONE SOUNDS MORE WHITER THAN THE OTHER DATZ ALL!
I am so late. However, Cassie was trying too hard in the beginning, so by the time it got to the middle of the song she was reaching and almost breaking. Karina killed her ass a million times over and that’s just the way it is. She sang it perfectly. Climaxed at the right time and everything. Made me love this song.
I LIKE KARINA’S VERSION BETTER….DONT GET ME WRONG CASSIE CAN SING AA LITTLE BIT BUT THIS SONG WASN’T FOR HER…THE PURPOSE OF THE SONG IS SAYING “THAT THEY ARE TIRED OF BEING UNOFFICIAL” BASICALLY THEY WANT TO BE OFFICIAL BETWEEN THE TWO…AND WITH KARINA’S STRONG VOICE SHE MADE HER POINT ACROSS….KARINA SOUND BETTER FOR THIS SONG
i like karina’s version better…dont get me wrong cassie can sing but this song wasn’t for her…the purpose of the song is saying “that they tired of being unofficial” basically they want to be official between the two….and with karina’s strong amazing voice she made her point across…karina sound way better for this song..!!!
karina killed this song! amazing job girl! cassie wsa good too but karinas voice is jsut amazing!
Ok we all know Cassie can’t sing. Karina is way better. Cassie needs to go somewhere with that wack ass voice.. No wait she has no voice lol. She needs to stick to modeling. She always sounds like she’s trying too hard.
Karina’s version is waaaaay better i mean her voice is a gift.If she was older shed be competing with Alicea keys.
I think Karina did a much better job.
I really don’t think Cassie can sing!
Cassie didn’t dominate the song like Karina did. You could actually hear Karina she didn’t sound shy, while Cassie did. So I’m gonna have to go with Karina.
i really like the song, karina has a stronger voice than cassie but i like cassie’s version better coz her soft light voice suits the song.
i think karina has a stornger voice than cassie, but cassie’s version is better coz her light soft suits the song.
KARINA ALL DA WAII BABII!!!!
CASSIE SNDD LIKE SHE DYINN O SUTTINN…UU FUKKIN SUKK!!!!…SHE G2 BLOWW HARDER N SCREAM…KARINA GOTT BETTA VOIS…SINGIN AINTT CASSIE THNGG…STOPP SNGINN…DED ASS…DO W.E U WUZZ DOINN B4…KARINA ONLY 17 NOW N SHEE ODEE BETTA DEN CASSIE…IF YA SAII CASSIE…YA DNTT NOE SHITT BOUTT MZCC…KARINA NEW ALBUM IS A WRAP…16 @ WAR IS BALLINN…

KARINA..cassie cannot sing
Jazmine Sullivan should be singin this…hands down! LOL
Nah, but Karina clearly sounds better, but I didn’t expect Cassie to bring it, she basically talks over every track..poor thing..she tried and failed once again.
WOW! Karina’s version is WAAAYYYY better! I can actually understand the lyrics. On Cassie’s version I can’t understand what the fuck she’s saying, despite the fact she’s just talking. Cassie CAN NOT sing, point blank. She just needs to stop. It’s sad cus there are soooo many singers who can SANG but can’t get a break. But this hoe just sleep around and get records and stuff. Sad story.
