Why is she jockin Aaliyah’s style soooooooo hard?!? From the hair to the wardrobe, to the “choreography” (or lack thereof)…

She isn’t much more than a pretty face, no matter how pretty that face is…

I LOVED IT!! It was everything I hoped it would be. That sexy visual masterpeice was great, fitted the song. CASSIE always has the flyest shit, both her last videos were both dope visually! Thats what she brings, you either like it or you dont! IF YOU DONT LIKE IT SHE DIDNT MAKE IT FOR YOU! LOVE YOU GIRL!!

OMG I love this!!! She looks so beat in this video!! Go Cassie!!

Okay, just read the cmment’s and it seems that everyone is seeing the distasteful Aaliyah comparison. T no: 49, i don’t think that Rihanna s as bad as Cassie, yes she may not be the best dancer but she’s a damm sight better singer than Cassie. Brandy cannot dance (before you all start you know i aint lying) but she can sing her ass of and her songs are better than this tripe. I’m not a big Rihanna fan but at least she has something distinctive with her voice. Cassie is nondescript.

#72 you keep Janet Jackson’s name off this post. Cassie isn’t about to do her 5th World Tour next month, now is she?

LMAO @ Mariah Cannon, that chick…. oh never mind.

she has one expression throughout the whole video..

I can’t even hate on Cassie but bad boy is sooo stuck in the 90’s with this tired R&B garbage. This whole video and the sound of the song seems like they’re trying to make Cassie the new Aaliyah.

Damn I thought I saw Aaliyah for a second (R.I.P. babygirl) but Cassie is missing originality,creativity, and that indescribable mystique that Aaliyah had

ya’ll some haters! lol! You wish you were on t.v making a video, and getting styled in the flyest sh*t! I aint mad Cassie! “Do You”!

@75, so it was everything you hoped it would be? Really? Did you at LEAST hope this chic would hire a vocal coach?

Not that it would matter anyway…

I do like the song….the video is okay…and I DON’T THINK CASSIE CAN SING!!! but she has a mellow tunage to her voice..which makes her voice sound bearable on records…i think she looks great BUT..why isn’r she FULLY clothed..come on now it’s 2008…where is the creativity…guess only solange, santogold, m.i.a, and janelle monae are bringing “IT”….DAMN SHAME!!

WOAH!! i didn’t read the previous posts….FUCK OUTTA HERE..WIT THAT SHIT ….CASSIE THE NEW AALIYAH!!…that can NEVA happen…that wack two step wasn’t shit…AALIYAH CAN SING AND DANCE and there was no one like her wen she was here…sooo cassie cud never fit that mold…. and i agree wit #80 100%

I’m not surprised that most of the comments are negative. I mean I’m not saying she’s the best singer, but its obvious she has stepped her game up a little. The vocals were cool to me… light and breezy like the song and the dancing was good. No one wants to say how Ciara has been swagger jacking Aaliyah for years! The best part of the video to me is that I kind of felt her swagger. Cassie has a mean ass walk! I’m going to wait until she performs this live before I write her off like the rest of you all because she knows she has to prove herself…

I feel as if im watching a photo shoot not
a music video
SHe’s cute but i feel she pushes it too much to cover the vocals
and i argee the shoes were hot!
great model…singer idk

I think this was a great video! You guys are letting your distaste for Cassie cloud your judgement. If Ciara or Rihanna did this video you all would love it. The reality is neither Rihanna, Ciara, or Cassie are naturally good singers anyway. Hell no one can really sing these days.

WTF is wrong with Wayne looking like a crack head midget with a lazy eye next to Cassie in that shot from the video up top lol
That shit is alllllllllll wroooooong! lmao

HELLs ARE so FIERCE, a tad bit MummYish!!! and those Stunnas.

was the BET awards the same day as the SHOOT???

Hells Are Super Fierce - Just a Tad Bit MummYish

haha she’s a gorgeous girl.
haha i kept thinkin hmm maybe there will be a purpose for this swimsuit.
but NOPE!
not one!
she has it on cause it looks on her and thats it.
then again i look good naked
but i dont be runnin around town naked now do i?
haha i love weezy.
she kinna looked aalyiah-esque when she was dancin in the the jacket with bikini top.

wayne sings better than her

o and i mention i liked it?
it’ll grow on me fa sho fa sho.
evne the i dissed on the swimsuit.
you cant blame me.

i like the song, the video and i like her. she’s cute and sexy! *mwah*

i just want the girl to go away, and i feel bad for her messing with Diddy and she know it aint goin no where i hated the first song, she was cute in step up 2 but the singing thing is just not something she should be doing sorry Cassie let it go..

i like the song..not the video.
a LITTLE bit too much like an Aaliyah video. the whole..EVERYTHING was all Aaliyah.
geez. why?!
lol..and the ‘executive’ dude..is that supposed to be diddy?? lol..lawd!!
but anyhoo..like a couple people said..she should stick to modelling cuz shes a beautiful girl..just not beautiful vocally.

Wow.
I’ve never been this disgusted in my life: So much hate. So much. It’s almost unbelievable…

It almost makes me want to stop reading Concreteloop. So much negative energy in one place.

“No one wants to say how Ciara has been swagger jacking Aaliyah for years!”

We all know she so desperately wants to be Aaliyah too, she ain’t fooling no damn body! Why do you think Timbaland stays away from that hoe, she’ll never get a beat. He sees right through her little scheme. Missy’s fake ass is so caught up in the late night munching sessions that she allows Ciara’s little games. SMH!

I honestly liked it…I thought it was nice and fresh.. She is gorgeous and we clearly can see Aaliyah written all over this…but maybe it was a tribute. who knows. As for the voice…who can REALLY sing now-a-days?

That child looks like a skeleton. It’s pathetic how society has been brainwashed into thinking that someone that size is sexy. Put about 20 pounds on her and she really would be sexy. Also, while her vocals are much improved, she needs to tone down the “cheeky” presentation. There’s not much to show, and it didn’t help the video at all.

The video looks like it was shot in the late 90’s. Bad Boy needs to get with the times.

i notice the aaliyah thing too
through out the video

u kno wt i think she has stepped up her singing game a little bit (only a lil bit) i think da vid is okay but a lil borring but no doubt about she is a pretty girl

#65

lol, i guess you’re one of the dumb fcks who couldnt understand the concept of the video.

i dont know why some peeps are getting butt hurt when cassie gets praise. oh yea, she’s gorgeous. a lot of you people put her down, but when less gorgeous chicks get in the game such as inoj who has the same capacity to sing vocally, you actually praise her.

i miss u girl , i missd u girl ima make u my official girl……. lmao sooo cheesey

I think it’s a HOT video! Dope Track!
I REALLY LIKE IT!!!

I LOVE CASSIE! LIL WAYNE IS ILL!

does she favor the late aalyiah in this vid? kinda..does she compare in the talent dept..hell no. the beats to the song aint even all that either.

God Damn she looks skinny!! These clothes she wore made her look even more flat. She got no curves at all. Typical model…… I don’t know..usually she looks good and wear appropriate outfits but…. not in this video! Besides it was corny as hell. Was she trying to do the Aaliyah with these dance moves??? O_o or Ciara? Girl please….. Do what u do best: stay lookin pretty!

I’m not hating on the song though. I love this song, and beat!!! And Weezy did a good job.
I was just expecting a lil bore from the vid…. not just the camera strolling over her not-existing boobs and her boney ass……. :/ whatever though..

Oh and that driving a car scene was also cheesy .. Who she tryin 2 be? Lil Kim the nightrider?
anyway….. *-)

this is official garbage……………basura.!

Black people always hate..They never wanna see someone succeed….But Its good though…
Haterz R needed 2 make it big in the industry…
Look 2 beyonce & Rihanna…so many haterz….
And the Aaliyah comparison…thats good…they did that with ciara 2…
Cassie U gonna be big…like the britneys & the janets
We love u here in europe..
Make more music & Movies!

Love from a black boy from London

HOT

the boots is on and popping! she is a beautiful flower ..but singing isn’t her mission! it sad that they had her in swim wear when there is no pool!

We are definitely missing something in the music industry.
We have beautiful girls, with half-assed skills.
Cassie is beautiful, with a soft solumn dance routine.
Ciara is a pretty girl, with ghetto dance routines.
I think we are comparing these girls to Aaliyah because she was all of what we are missing. Aaliyah could dance, and Aaliyah could sing.
We need that.. so when are A&R reps going to understand that just because a girl is marketable, and can dance that THE PUBLIC are going to be looking for much more.
Music Lovers, want REAL MUSIC.
Especially if they are Pop/R&B/Soul Classified artist.
MEN LIKE P.Diddy are good, but it seems as if he doesn’t know what real talent is. He knows ALOT about Image, but he’s WACK on finding talent.
IE: Danity Kane.. the only girl in the group that shines in my opinion is DAWN. If she was BEAUTIFUL without all the pound of make-up I’d route for her to go solo.. cause she a Hidden Aaliyah. But the questions existing. Why are we comparing everyone to other artist when LABELS seek originality. Are we still missing the Late Great Aaliyah?

But anyway.. Check out this Girl: http://www.myspace.com/jazzjeff
her name is Jazzy and she is KILLING it!
She’s on the Hot or Not on here too! EVERYONE LOVED Her!

You can’t even begin to compare Cassie to Aaliyah. Not only was she obviously a million times more talented, she had so much more class than this chick. Cassie should stick to modelling and leave the singing and dancing to those who can actually do it and please put on some clothes for God’s sakes, come on.

there is nothing worse than an artist who is trying to emulate another one we all saw it ,cassie. even though she is no longer wit us . the bit of the song is good but wat is with the bikini throughout the all video and the flesh not classy cassie

is it me but does cassie look a lil bit like our beloved aaliyah,with all the dancing and sunglasses hmmmm jus squint and judge for your self

Personally i think Cassie stepped up her game a lil’ on this one, i feel
people are jus’ hatin especially some of the girls cos she’s looking fly
and they can’t really relate to her and have never really liked her.
This is one of the best videos she’s ever done, some of you who are criticizin
try puttin your talent out and have people reject you, the music industry isn’t easy
you know, there are so many underground artists tryna make it to the top and who may never reach there, it’s already overly, over-crowded saturated with artists so do you think a record label is jus gonna sign someone up because they look good noo wayyy jose, lol. You gotta bring something real hot to the table before they even look at you. IM GONNA SAY THIS BUT CASSIE CAN SING, YES, her vocal range is the same as Amerie and ashanti, except ashanti is a lil more powerful out of the three.
Lesson one: not everybody sings the same theres alto, soprano mezzo soprano, cassies within the alto range. Not everybody’s gonna be singing powerful like beyonce, Jennifer hudson.
I can’t sit here and criticize an artist and say go back to modelling she ain’t nothin but a clothes horse thats jus’ hateration to the highest degree, she’s trying her best and using the talent God blessed her with yes i sed TALENT.
As for lookin like Aaliyah,( hmmm don’t let me get started on this one) lol anyone who has her hair styled in that way wears a bikini with a leather jacket is accused of looking like or tryna be the next aaliyah? (now thats just wrong, are we trying to say that aaliyah isn’t unique and be copied just like that?)
wth, not too long ago ciara was accused of looking like aaliyah and trying to dance like her? what. Did aaliyah state that no one can wear their hair straight and have a side parting? no, Aaliyah bless her soul is dead and gone, she will never be forgotten but this is just ridiculous how on earth does cassie look like aaliyah firstly Cassie is part pinay, fillipina and black aaliyah is fully black and darker skinned they will never look alike, (just had to highlight that)
I guess you either like her or lump her (but don’t hate, haters never succeed in life)

THE VIDEO HAS UPPED CASSIE”S VERSION OF THE SONG BY ABOUT 80%!!!
SHE LOOK FLYYY…

I PREFER KARINA PASIAN VERSION DOE…

Love Cassie.. Love the song.. Love the video!

I thought I would be disappointed but I actually like the song.Cassie lookin beautiful and she’s doin her thang. As for Lil Waynes part not so sure. I expected something diff. he just didnt bring it.

good thing shes hot, otherwise, i would of not been able to watch the entire thing.

@ 75 i agree with u, this girl is so fly its ridiculous i like the song too some of u just hate when its not needed. AND bloody hell aaliyah is GONE jeez people need to get over it, i liked her too but i got over it a week after she was gone! so any girl rocking long straight hair with a fringe covering their eye is going to get slewed for trying to copy aaliyah?? DAMN

the song is ok. video isn’t anything over the top, but it’s ok.

Pump-fakin’ ass Aaliyah!! RIP Baby Girl! Although Cassie’s butt cheeks looked cute!

why is it every time a black person makes a constructive criticism, it means they are a hater? Without criticism there can be no room for improvement. It is because of that attitude that black people have such low standards and people like cassie get signed in the first place. We are the consumer, the customer and the listener, the record labels are working for us and our money, so saying dumb shit like cassie ‘do you’ is someting to be expexted from an irrnogrant ass negro, who knows nothing about business and the concept of supply and demand. If we all upped our standards of listening we would get more talented artist like Alicia Keys and Common. But no black people watch a wack ass video like that and think ummm well she is doing her thing……it is not about her doing her thing, it is about her entertaining US…..and I am not entertained!!!

R.I.P Aaliyah, that wack ass chick cant pull off shit in your name!!!!

It’s 2008 people, get over the word “Hater” when somebody doesn’t like something.

I love the 1st part when she’s walking in the Mummy sandals tho… She rocked that part, I’ll giver her that lol

@49

I am so agreeing with you. Cassie and Rihanna are basically the same!!! But Rihanna gets all the praise and Cassie gets trashed. I personally like the song and video. Cassie do your thing.

wat in the world!! this video had too much going on.
Didnt like it at all. Dont like Cassie either. I feel like this song is directed towards Diddy!

It does look like she’s trying to be Aaliyah, with the dance moves, and the semi-hardcore swagg..Only one Tru Aaliyah, RIP Honey

Next..

Right there with the Aaliyah “inspiration”, they had (what sounded like) Timbaland saying “I miss you girl”. That’s some calculated subversive ish.

In throwback term and the words from j hud off her new album, “dont make me hit you with my pocket book” cassie. ive had enough!

it did put me in the mind of Aaliyah, irritating to those that know cassie cant really sing.
i agree, this IS a song to DIDDY.she needs to stop,lol.
PLUS-the track doesnt match the song at first, like shes singing to slow. it eventually catches up but it feels off at first.like she sang the song and then they added a great track they found.

it was DEEP(#75), haaaaaaaa, that was funny

Cassie needs a personality then a voice

Bless her heart.Sending Diddy a subliminal measage.. Like the beat.

Who made it past 1:18 because I didnt? After listening to Karina Pasians version on repeat this version was like torture. Her voice and dancing is so bland. Her album will sell 24,000 copies total.

She reminds me of Aaliyah but without the talent.

I DON’T KNOW WHAT THE HELL I JUST SAW. A VIDEO???? THE TITLE IS OFFICIAL GIRL SHE COULD HAVE CENTERED THE CONCEPT AROUND I DON’T KNOW MAYBE A GUY CONSTANLY BLOWING HER OFF SO WE COULD HAVE PUT THE TWO TOGETHER. BUT INSTEAD SHE JUST SHOWCASED HER NO ASS WANNA BE AALIYAH LOOKING ASS WALKING AROUND HALF NAKED FOR NO REASON. A HOT ASS MESS BUT WHAT DO WE EXPECT, BADBOY RIGHT.

I love the song and the video is good. It is not the best but i like it. I think Cassie improved alot but she is no Beyonce.

Real talk, I see they tried (TRIED) to make her more edgy, but taking off your clothes is not edgy Cassie. I know she probably reading the posts.

But why did ‘they’ feel it was necessary for her to have her butt cheeks hanging out? I can’t imagine they shot this video and didn’t see that people would notice how ‘they’ hint at Aaliyah with the baggy pants, stomach out, hair over the eye and dancing.

Cassie, music fans are hungry for something real, you have to come harder honey bunches. Make a song about how hard it is to be you with people constantly putting you down or something, something we can all relate to. Because I’m not sweating no dude NOT making me his official girl. Damn sure not taking pics to give to him of me in a g-string…it’s 2008 babes, get wit it- or get lost. Real talk.

Okay yall hating. I must admit Cassie new song is daymn hot. I see the stylist made her look like Aalyiah a little. Maybe its the long wrap hair. That’s a hot look Cassie. Yall hating. The beat is fire. I love it.

i think its pretty classy……she sounds good 2 me

I mean I very critical about songs, video’s, and looks. but these bloggers sound more like a group of haters, who i suspect are mainly women? I wonder why? and cassie did a great job for whats she’s known for doing. the song concept is cute and cool. her look is good. lil wayne did an okay job.. hi haters

by the way i think cassie is a good follow up on aaliyah…shes equally as pretty if not more…and they sound the same to me ACTUALLY.

hi haters…

Hi Kim-Ron Taylor! Yes boo, I hate this song!
