“I think right now, the way that I got the hood on smash and the way that my song is poppin’ off, I don’t think it would be a smart decision for Hov to drop on November 6,” said Cass in an interview. He also added that he felt American Gangster is not as anticipated as of Jay’s classics. “It ain’t like when [The Blueprint] Vol. 1 or Vol. 2 was gonna drop, it’s a lot different,” he said.
Cass has compared this sales stand-off between the two to the recent showdown between 50 Cent and Kanye.
“The same way that Kanye and 50 both benefited from dropping on the same day, I think if I drop with somebody as legendary as Hov, I can’t do nothing but benefit from that,” Cass said.
“I’m happy that Hov, a person that really takes lyricism seriously, is coming back out again.”
Cass expressed that there are others that are not fit go against him. Recently, he squashed rumors of a battle between him and Joe Budden by saying that the only emcee fit to battle him was himself.

Cassidy Is A Little Retarded Dont Mind Him.
wut da fuck is yall boy smokin lol
lmao cass tryin 2 pull off a 50 and kanye shit,i wount b suprise if hov dont respond to this nigga smhh man alot of rapper have no fuckin manners ...
first he says jay should get pushed back then he says its only gonna help him out :S
I think all he's trying to do is advise Jay that pushing back would be in his best interests (knowing that he probably won't).
ummm....ok.
But Hes A Great Rapper/MC.
hahaha lmao he wants jay to push back even though it would help him? i guess we all can figure out he really donr want jay to push back, hes after that controversy
I like Cass but this shit is funny. Jay-z can drop with no single and outsell Cass
American Ganster gonna be one of Jay's best album.
if i was jay i wud make my album come out the day before so when ppl go buy his album they dont wanna go back the next day to buy cass' album.
all albumscome out on tuesdays in the united states, you cant come outa day before you have to wait a week
ppl dat don't even like jay-z buys jsy-z's albums. cassidy prolly think kuz he kame 4rm an accident like kanye den he gon sell like kanye. cassidy good but jay-z gone sell regardless kuz of his popularity and kuz he spit better den cass.
lol, the funny thing is, i actually agree wit cassidy but thats probaly because im from philly
son ya waves are crazy how you get dem like dat ?!
homo ass nigga askin about this dude waves. damn the internet is full of weirdos
lmao cosign
cosign! damn thats gay as hell
co-sign greatness
gotta support Cass.
but if they stay on the same date, then nov. 6 will be a good day for hip hop!
i was gunna buy both, but cassidy changed my mind hes just to hot in the hood right now... SMH??? hilarious american gangster NOVEMBER 6th cop that shit.
good to see a big L fan on this site illseed. rip to the illest. wish he could still be puttin out new material
If it wasn't for this article I would not have known Cassidy was dropping on the same day.
I like cassidy but he 2 full of himself right now.
It's impossible 4 him 2 compete with Hov. Honestly cassidy's last 2 albums were wak as shit. ALL OF JAY-Z'S ALBUMS ARE HOT!!
Cassidy is not the best battle rapper out there either. I think Loaded Lux & Murda Mook can beat him.
mook got destroyed by jae millz so thats a wrap and loaded who? please stop smokin dat piff
dont sleep on loaded lux FUK MURDA MOOK! dat man ass
fuck that, phonte or J.O. would murk these wannabe mc's
I guess that accident scrambled Cassidy's brain.
Both their sales together won't add up to the sales for C3... just watch
Don't set yourself up like that playa.
this is bout cassidy and jay.. u lil wayne dickryders always gotta bring up ur boyfriend dumb motherfuckers..
wayne dickriders are the funniest muthafuckaz on defsounds.......does any1 agree? LOFL
scrillstar u acting like a retard
c3 will definatley outsell both, but NOT combined please..
Wayne won't do more than 300k the first week. Don't get gassed Wayne stans!
wayne nice, but the carter one is still strugglin to reach two times plat. i woulda thought we would have been did that by now.
LMAO... nigga.... i cant even say shit...
what that nigga jay say, "niggas wake up on his dick. Eat some breakfast first nigga"
cass has it twisted. jay isn't dropping with cass; cass is dropping with jay.
COSIGN^^^
I DONT LIKE JAY-Z BUT CASSIDY IS CRAZY IF HE THINK HE GONNA SELL CUZHE AINT RELEVANT RIGHT NOW-HES GOT NO RADIO PLAY AND NO BUZZ- I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HE WAS GONNA COME OUT NOVEMBER 6.
ANY WAY HOV WONT SELL NEITHER - HE FUKED UP WITH THAT PIECE OF SHIT ALBUM KINGDOM COME - I AINT GONNA BUY NONE OF THOSE ALBUMS. I'LL PROBABLY JUST DOWNLOAD THEM
now i know why I shot your character more than any other in GTA San Andreas.
Illseed something is wrong with u! LMAO!
I FUCKS WITH THIS 2 NIGGAZ HARD (NO HOMO)
BUT CASSIDY NEEDS 2 GET HIS BRAIN EXAMINED 4 REAL....HE IS A REAL GOOD MC NO DOUBT BUT ITZ JIGGA THAT WE ARE TALKIN ABOUT HERE
Dam. He saw open opportunity 4 sum publicity so he took it. lmao
Too bad it backfired.
he definitely did this for publicity but yall dumb if yall think b.a.r.s aint gone be hot. his last album was FIRE but he couldnt promote it. and to RYDER187 You were probly born in "87" cus u sound young. Cassidy new single gets over 600 spins a week. and Kingdom Come was Jays most mature piece. holla back. PHILLY IN THIS BITCH.
damn but i still would buy cass over jay cuz he gon sell n e way and im feelin cass rite na
u cant be serious lol
Cassidy talkin reckless... wat else is new
MY NIGGA CASSIDY IS 1000000000000000000000000000000000000XS BETTER THAN DAT FAG JAY Z!...IM COPPIN HIS ALBUM OVER ANY JAY ALBUM ANY DAY!..SHOWTIME!
Jay-z lose to everybody too you, you that much of a hater son. I bet if you say jay-z vs. Mims, you would pick Mims. You a hater son, word is bond.
Cass is buggin...no way in hell he's sellin' more than Jigga...or even competing with for that matter....real talk!
So what are your predictions for that week people?
Jay-z 700,000-800,000
Cassidy 60,000-80,000 lol real talk
Personally I think Cass is bein pretty funny right now. Its his job to be cocky...but I dunno about this, Kingdom Come sold well in the first week...and my drink and my 2 step is straight gabage. Now everyone is going to be tryin to compare their sales to Kanye vs. 50...lol
On another note, Ryder187 go back to wishin you was a thug, what a suprise another West coast dude spellin Ryder with a y...
Both Jay and Cass ain't gonna sell shit lol that Blue Magic ain't shit and Cass single ain't shit i didn't even know Jay had a album till a couple days ago not one of them nigga gonna sell if 50 can't do it no one can
Blue Magic is on 106 & Park now. He's platinum already.
WHAT A DICK, I DON'T HATE CASS BUT U GOT TO TELL A RAPPER WHOS BETTA DEN U TO PUSH HIS ALBUM BACK. HE GON DESTROY UR ASS IN SALES JUST LIKE KANYE WEST DID TO 50 CENT. UNLIKE DAT BULLSHIT "MY DRINK AND MY 2 STEP" (IT BLEW UP ON DA HIP HOP STATION DOWN HERE FOR LIKE 2 FUCKIN WEEKS) AND GETTIN SCHOOLED BY GILLIE DA KID ON A VIDEO, JAY-Z BLEW UP WIT DAT NEW SHIT "BLUE MAGIC" (AND THEY PLAY THAT SHIT LIKE CRAZY ON DA RADIO)...
SRY CASS, BUT JIGGA WILL FUCK U UP IN SALES REAL.
Remember,50 cent said da same thang to kanye, and kanye WHOOPED HIS ASS IN SALES
Cass is a fuckin beast on the mic, but he delusional if he think he could compete wit Jay
all yall gotta be trippin if yall think cassidy gon outsell jigga..im a big jigga fan but so far what i heard from american gangsta aint all that so i just cant wait til when it drops but my nucca gon do his numbers like he always do.....straight up do ya history
lmao i was thinking everything yall said... jus drop tha cd or change ur date..
somebody help me out real quick. so is american gangster solely a jay z album, or is it a soundtrack to the movie with a few song featuring jay z.
but cass do want jay to drop so he can get them record sales like ye and fifty.
i dont rap, but i might decide to challenge a well established rapper one day on record release just to get my paper up lol. i see a new trend developin. next its gon be soulja boy tellin nas not to drop the same day, or jeezy tellin eminem dont drop, wonder if cube and dre will have a lil record day face off to put there record sales back on the map
"American Gangster" is a full brand new jay-z album strictly new cuts, based solely on his inspiration to make it after learning about the movie..
cass need some mental help he doeshave a hott single but damn who can compete with hov. everybody waiting patiently for american gangster i didnt know when cass was coming out until i read this article cass is aight but will neva compete wit jigga
Radamez I'm with you... I definitely didnt know that CASS had something dropping...
This nigga is always talking about what his single is doing...how many spins he got a week...shut the fuck up damn!
Just make music muthafucka.
I like ya shit... but u gotta know when to stop talking sometimes...
~Be Eazy!
ok he is no way going to push back his shit
now i agree dat cassidy talkin real ignorant but yall cant be serious thinkin that cassidy aint gone sell his last album went gold wit NO PROMOTION HE WAS LOCKED UP! man cassidy the truth but he aint sellin more than jay when jay-z sells a mill by default!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I'm a Hustla is Cassidy's second album. It includes the singles I'm a Hustla and B-Boy Stance. The album has been certified Gold.
you're wrong lil b, "split personality" his debut went platinum but im a hustla never made it..
he should outsell hov. hov is nice but he way overrated. ppl jumped all ova his dick when he retire and shit, it was a good promotional stunt he pulled tho. cass lyrically murders hov tho.
Is that so? let's go bar for bar then. you'll be real upset with yourself for sayin that. Cass cant hang with Hov--Let's be serious.
whoa now u seem 2 got shyt fukd up 2 think cass cant COMPETE with hov? u jus talkin out yo anal now
LOL Cass is crazy. Its good they dropping on the same day, this battle (if its considered a battle) is better than 50/kanye cause hov and cass both have more lyrical content than 50/Ye. Cant wait til they drop
lol, greatness1031 has the most artificial waves i ever seen
Yo, I love cassidy, but he ain't ready for Jay like that... It' a good look for Cass but Jay Z is not goin to feed into this battle, he has nothin to gain!!!
LMAo is cass retarted Thats like the New england Patriots vs. Norte Dame

no where. cassidy need 2 quit callin himself a hustla cause papoose exposed him over his own song. he aint never hustled shit.
Reel talk Cass is big n da hood...but he was always like dat. but his abums r pure garbage. XXL said dat BARS was a subpar album dat really jus go off Drink N My 2 Step. Im gonna have 2 go wit Ho
im just now startin to feel that song but i'll feel anything after havin it forced down my throat enough
personally I think cassidy is on jay z's level as far as lyrics.
he can battle i'll give him that. i heard him battle against freeway and he was tight but everytime freeway started up he sounded so pitifull. he freestyles just how he raps. (stupid) needless to say he got his ass whooped. i useta like freeway cus he from the PA like me but so is cass so fuck him. oh yeah and fuck cass too cus beans is back. oh yeah and fuck beans cuss state property sucked the sequel didnt make since cus he got shot in the head but oh he just went to jail in the sequel wit they dumbass plots and friend of mine by gillie da kid is tight and he from the PA too. oh yeah and fuck gille cus he never wrote shit 4 weezy.
LoL this nigga done hit his head a lil' 2 hard in dat accident. But I know wat he doin', nigga u ain't slick!LoL........ Yo I'm still copin' both albums though
