**QUI EST CASSIE**

Cassandra Ventura, née le 26 août 1986, est une chanteuse américaine de R&B dont les plus grands succès de sa carrière naissante sont les singles Me & U et Long Way 2 Go.

Cassandra Ventura, plus connue sous le nom de Cassie est née à New London, dans le Connecticut aux États-Unis d'un père philippin et d'une mère d'origines afro-américaine. Elle a fait ses études secondaires à la Williams School de laquelle elle a été diplômée en 2004.

Cassie est subitement devenue une artiste à la suite d'une rencontre avec Ryan Leslie qui lui a accordé de lui enregistrer une chanson qui servirait de cadeau d'anniversaire pour sa maman. Ryan Leslie étant lui-même chanteur et producteur, il s'est associé à Cassie pour interpréter la chanson intitulée Kiss Me. Il s'est avéré que la maman de Cassie n'était pas la seule à aimer la chanson et Ryan Leslie a donc décidé de faire écouter le morceau à Tommy Mottola, l'ancien président de Sony. Séduit, il a offert à Cassie de devenir son manager et quelques semaines plus tard, c'est au tour de Ryan Leslie de produire son tout premier album. Cassie a été signée sur le label Bad Boy Records de P. Diddy après avoir entendu la chanson Me & U dans une boîte de nuit.

Avant de se lancer dans une carrière musicale, Cassie était mannequin pour l'agence Wilhelmina où elle a notamment travaillé avec Adidas pour la campagne publicitaire de la ligne de vêtements de Missy Elliot, Respect M.E, le magazine Complex et des campagnes Abercrombie & Fitch.

La jeune artiste s'est vite fait une place dans l'industrie musicale et a su développer sa carrière sur le plan international. Cependant, ses premières prestations en direct ont fait l'objet de nombreuses critiques. Cassie était soupçonnée de ne chanter qu'en play-back.

On peut voir des apparitions de Cassie dans la vidéo de Stronger, extrait de l'album Graduation de Kanye West. Elle apparaît également dans le clip de Mario intitulé Here I Go Again où elle y joue le rôle de son ex-petite amie. Cassie a participé au film Step Up 2 : The Streets dans lequel elle joue et a contribué à la bande originale avec le titre Is It You.

Du côté de la musique, Cassie devrait bientôt sortir son nouvel album, Connecticut Fever. Alors qu'il était programmé pour une commercialisation au mois de mai, celui-ci a été repoussé au mois de septembre et la date exacte reste à ce jour toujours inconnue. Cependant son nouveau clip avec en guest Lil' Wayne pour Official Girl a été tourné et devrait être diffusé d'ici peu.

Me & U

LYRICS

You've been waiting so long
I'm hear to answer your call
I know that I shouldn't have had you waiting at all
I've been so busy, but I've been thinking
about what I wanna do with you

Bridge-
I know them other guys, they been talking
bout the way I do what I do
They heard I was good, they wanna see if it's true
They know you're the one I wanna give it to
I can see you want me too
Now, it's me and you

Chours-
It's me and you, now
I've been waiting (Waiting)
Think I wanna make that move, now
Baby, tell me if you like it (Tell me if you like it)
It's me and you, now
I've been waiting
Think I wanna make that move, now
Baby, tell me how you like it
I was waiting for you to tell me you were ready
I know what to do, if only you would let me
As long as you're cool with it, I'll treat you right
Here is where you wanna be

I know them other guys, they been talking
bout the way I do what I do
They heard I was good, they wanna see if it's true
They know you're the one I wanna give it to
I can see you want me too
And now, it's me and you

it's me and you now (Baby, it's me and you)
I've been waiting
Think I wanna make that move, now
(Thinking bout making that move)
Baby, tell me if you like it (Tell me if you like it)
It's me and you, now (Uh-huh)
I've been waiting (Hey)

Baby, tell me how you like it (Yea)

Baby, I'll love you all the way down
Get cha right where you like it, I

Long Way 2 Go


LYRICS

I love it when they try to get intimate
Even though they know I really ain't into it
(You're not into it?) I'm not into it
I already know the game and I've been through it
See I buy my own bags, my boots, my jeans
Wear La Rok with my Rebel Yell underneath
You wanna step to me?
Said you gotta long way 2 go (Rock wit me now)

You claim that you're so hot
And you say you got skills in the bedroom
You try to flirt when you're so not
Had a chance you still never come through
You say you wanna come and see me
Cuz you know your girlfriend wanna be me (Uh)
I'ma tell you why you can't
Said you gotta long way 2 go
Say you wanna love me?

Wanna love me? Wanna touch me?
Think twice cuz you gotta long way 2 go
Don't know howda act, bettah fall back
It's like that cuz you gotta long way 2 go
It's not that deep, take it easy, you wanna please me?
Got a long way 2 go, I'ma bad girl
You wanna get close? Ease up cuz you gotta a long way

I love it when they try to get scandalous
Even though they know they really can't handle it
(They can't handle it?) They can't handle it
Try and take me out to dinner, I'll cancel it
If you really wanna know me first of all
You should never try to get to personal
Cuz I'm in it when I say:
That you gotta long way to go

You claim that you're so hot
And you say you got skills in the bedroom
You try to flirt when you're so not
Had a chance you still never come through
You say you wanna come and see me
Cuz you know your girlfriend wanna be me (Uh)
I'ma tell you why you can't
Said you gotta long way 2 go
Say you wanna love me?

Wanna love me? Wanna touch me?
Think twice cuz you gotta long way 2 go
Don't know howda act, bettah fall back
It's like that cuz you gotta long way 2 go
It's not that deep, take it easy, you wanna please me?
Got a long way 2 go, I'ma bad girl
You wanna get close? Ease up cuz you gotta a long way

You claim that you're so hot
And you say you got skills in the bedroom
You try to flirt when you're so not
Had a chance you still never come through
You say you wanna come and see me
Cuz you know your girlfriend wanna be me (Uh, yeah)
Said you gotta long way 2 go
Say you wanna love me?

Wanna love me? Wanna touch me? (Touch me)
Think twice cuz you gotta long way 2 go (Way to go)
Don't know howda act, bettah fall
back (Oh you got a long way)
It's like that cuz you gotta long way 2 go
It's not that deep, take it easy (Take
it easy) you wanna please me?
Got a long way 2 go, I'ma bad girl (I'ma bad girl)
You wanna get close? Ease up cuz you gotta a long way

Wanna love me? Wanna touch me?
Think twice cuz you gotta long way 2 go
Don't know howda act, bettah fall back
It's like that cuz you gotta long way 2 go
It's not that deep, take it easy, you wanna please me?
Got a long way 2 go, said you gotta long way to go
Rock wit me now, you gotta long way to go
Bettah fall back, said you gotta long way to go
