It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything official from Bad Boy signee Cassie, but she chooses Valentine’s Day to drop her official first single, “King of Hearts.” She dropped a snippet and a trailer late last year, but she’s hoping that her sophomore album, which she’s been working on since 2008 will drop sometime this spring.
In addition to dropping the song, she’s dropping the video for the clip below, directed by Christopher Sims. Expect Cassie’s album out this summer.
Singer Solange, Cassie, JoJo and VV Brown are a few of today’s singers that have been selected as the ‘New Wave of Pop Stars’ in the latest music issue of V Magazine.

SOLANGE ON THE PROGRESSIVE SOUND OF HER UPCOMING ALBUM:
“It’s the kind of record you put on when your man is coming over, when you’re with your girls. There are songs that make you wanna dance because we were kind of partying our way through the record, but it’s very chill.

After releasing a trailer to her video for her upcoming single, “King of Hearts,”Cassie is eagerly gearing up to release her often delayed sophomore album, no longer entitled ElectroLove. And as usual, more tracks are leaking from sessions.
