Swizz Says Cassidy Won’t Battle Papoose
Fight Klub fans awaiting the return of Cassidy to the ring for the rumored Papoose battle can rest easy—because it ain’t happening.“That’s not going down,” Swizz Beatz told MTV.
“I’m not gonna let Cassidy get pressured into doing that. He’s at a point in his career where he feels comfortable and he’s focusing on taking it to the next level. Unless it’s something he’s doing that’s benefiting himself — getting a check? He’s getting checks. Battling a person who don’t have an album out, what is that? It has to be like something me and Kanye did onstage. Make it an event. Papoose is doing his thing, let him focus on his album, we don’t want to interfere with that.
“That battle thing is a sport, it don’t sell albums,” he continued. “Cassidy’s been doing that sport since he was 12 years old. He went from the sport to the business side of it, to making albums. But he’s on his freestyle thing. He’ll bite a head off if he has to. But it has to be an event.”
Swizz and Cass are currently promoting their respective albums which are set to drop soon.
Nas Drops Greatest hits
New York rapper Nas is getting ready for the release of his last album via his former recording home, Columbia Records.
According to SOHH, the compilation will include twelve songs from the Queens rapper’s eight solo albums, as well as two new songs; one of which being “Less Than An Hour,” Nas’ collaboration with Gnarls Barkley’s Cee-Lo Green.

Cass would rip Pap any day
damn i was hoping cass would battle pap
there both 2 of the best lyricist in the game right now
and they both talk about some real shit
unlike lil wayne who dotn even write his own shit till liek this year
DAMN I WANT CASS 2 GO AND BATTLE ANY1 IT DONT GOTTA BE PAPOOSE
I FUCKS WITH CASS AND ALL BUT I THINK PAP IS GONNA KILL HIM IN THE BATTLE IF IT EVER DID HAPPEN
hell yea i agree papoose is dat niCCa...i fuCCs wit cass his folw is so hard but papoose is a PROBLEM!!!!!
neither one of them would kill each other period unless 1 dude jus happened 2 4get to do what they do best which aint happenin. it would be a good as battle bet that tho.
Nas's greatest hits should be a two cd...... theres too many.
naw proba three disc
NAS IS A TRUE LEGEND....CASSIDY IS A RAP BEAST & SWIZZ IS A MONSTER ON THOSE TRACKS...DO YA THING BROTHERS. PAPOOSE IS SO SHIT IT'S CRAZY.....BATTLE CASSIDY AND YOUR ALBUM WON'T EVEN COME OUT...PERIOD. OH YEAH....THERES A GUY ON THIS SITE CALLED TELLDATRUTH...DON'T LISTEN TO WHATEVER THE FUCK HE IS WRITING ON A POST. THAT PUSSY-ASS FUCKBOY IS A CHICK WIT A DICK.....THAT GOES FOR ANYONE ELSE WHO AIN'T HIP HOP COMING ON THIS SITE. I'M 24 AND I BEEN HIP HOP SINCE 1988...YOU DO THE MATH...AND THAT AIN'T NO JOKE. I LIVE THIS SHIT FUCKBOY...DON'T PLAY WIT ME CAUSE I AIN'T NO INTERNET GANGSTA, WE CAN MEET UP YOU BITCH (TELLDATRUTH) AND BEAT YOUR FUCKIN ASS LIKE YOUR DADDY...STRAIGHT UP.
^ ok??
COME ON!.. i would like to see cass battle papoose
and nas should have more than one cd for the greatest hits he made...
omly 12 songs!!!!! thats fucked up
He's [Nas] only doing it cause there was a 2-album deal with Columbia/Def Jam... well, how many albums it was... this will count, literally as one of those albums... I, personally, don't see the point of putting out a Greatest Hits album anymore, when either everbody already has the tracks on their computer, or they will just get the track listing and dl what they don't have.
cassidy should pick not swizzy
Pap would get at Cassidy and vice versa. I think Pap would come out on top though because he's a real lyricist, not just a punchline rapper. Much respect to Cass cuz he got a nice swagger, but Pap just got that killer wordplay.
hell yea papooses flow is 2 real.... i can name some songs and freestyles by pap that his flow along will have niCCas goin Crazy!!!!!!
I think Pap's the future of hip hop,but in a battle Cass would win,Pap would
pre-write too much of his lines.
what in the hell did Swizz and Kanye do on stage??????
They had a dj battle, at this summer's Summer Jam (I believe), that Swizz won; but it was designed 4 him 2 win 'cause it was his event...
damn i didnt even hear bout that one! u think its on youtube?
I might be... you probably wouldn't have heard about it if you're not from the Tri-State area... it wasn't THAT big of a deal since it was a staged battle anyway, ... it was Swizz's set and he invited Kanye... They had a MOCK battle that Swizz "won"...
there was no defsounds.com article about it nor Summer Jam; where was FULLMETAL when we needed him, lol!?
pap already got at cass b4, there wouldnt be no battle cuz cass wont do it, he;s knows he will lose and he dont want that out there when he just came back
a Nas greatest Hits only 12 tracks dat musta took years to decide which songs to put on it, his Greatest Hits cd should b like 5 discs
Super Co-sign... And we talkin' bout freestyles, remixes, b-sides, guest appearances, and official cd cuts.
he just trying to waste an album release so he can be done with columbia! and when he signed with def jam it said something about they would keep the rights to release any nas greatest hits ablum, while def jam picks up the marketing bill....
Dog, I said that already:

A Cassidy vs. Papoose battle would be hot as long as it doesn't become a beef. Battles are a part of hiphop but when they get to fuckin up each others record sales and gettin people pushed back and off of labels thats when i start not fuckin wit niggas. But a battle Cassidy drop 16-24 bars vs. Papooses 16-24 bars in the cipher not all on this dude record and on that dude record. It would be a classic like 1986 style battle. and I already have every Nas record on CD I respect Nas shit but I can't buy the same shit twice.
Shit, Cass and Pap are both nice but I think Cass knows he'll get ate up so he dont want to battle. Finally they drop a Nas greatest hits.
damn um readin these comments and i see a great majority of these niCCas is sayin that pap would eat cass i been listenin 2 papoose since 2003 when his first mixtape came out when he got off rikers so i believe pap would eat cass but cass is real i fuCCs wit him but like i said he aint seein pap .....true story!!!

Monz3778,
I have a question 4 u since you say u have EVERY Nas record... I used to have this Nas freestyle and the cd got messed up and I CAN'T find it anywhere... Tell me if you have it or what it's called or WHO'S tape it was on.... It used to go something like this:
1 a.m., I'm at my best
Twissin' trees at my rest
Melt wit hash, sippin' Heiney, hittin' states in G.S.
Wit my grimeys... blowin' up throughout the 90's
stayin' lit wit the Choc'late Armoretta plus a dime piece....
Takin' Gortex steps, 'cause shit gets hot,
Pistols pop, some you hear, some you know when to drop
Twistin off the bottle top, contemplate, fake the plot
While niggas walk around wit' all they got in one knot...
For real, I build a mini-Israel, other the fish scale...
sum'n sum'n, deep and deadly, like the Red Sea, .... aarrrgh
I can't remember the rest but it was NASTY.... of course, lol... does ANYONE KNOW IT or has anyone heard it?
Nas had another freestyle he dropped like around 97-98, that I've been TRYNNA FIND FOR YEARS:
Tommy Gun Dunn and Machine Gun Mike, pulled a heist,
Fucked up and robbed the same jewelry store 2x...
I don't remember the rest but I KNOW that's how it started...
ANYONE!???? HELP!!!!!!!!!!
haha i feel your pain. i dont know tho
Tommy Gun Dunn and Machine Gun Mike, pulled a heist,
Fucked up and robbed the same jewelry store 2x...
I'v heard that line..........but i can't rememeber where,but i rememeber laughing at that line.
Come onnnnnnnnnnnn! Where are all my hip-hop heads slash NAS FANS!!?
Nas = Greatest of all time
OK Nas = Second Greatest All Time...I Think Pac Had Him In Deep And Hard Core Lyrics.....As Far As Cass Swizzy Explained It Best. If Papoose At Least Go Gold In A Album Then He Could Talk, But Right Now Cass Wont Do It Cuz He Know He Better and It Makes No Sense
I hear u bro, pac and nas is my top 2 and i change my mind alot on whos #1
Im sick of sum of these rappers makin excuses about shit.Im a fan of Cassidy but if he gon say ill bite anybody head off in a battle den sez i aint gon battle dis nigga jus cuz i aint gon benefit off it dont talk dat shit den dat simple.Jus like he aint wanna battle murda mook.
I dont know i think the cass, pap battle would be close but we wont find out anytime soon since it aint happenin. As far as nas go pretty much all his songs was great hits. lol
da cass and pap battle would be great 4 fans and hip hop if it were 2 happen...underground vs industry........as for da comparison between pac and nas from production nas is the best and purest mc of all time pac wuz more of a poet than an mc which made his music the most influential, inspriing, heartfelt, and all dat good stuff but lyrically nas's wordplay and slang gives him da edge
I thought that the rumor was that Joe budden wanted to battle Cass at the Fight flub?
I never even knew that Pap wanted some of Cass.
That would be in insane battle though. i don't really like Pap, But i will admit that he has a Serious Word Game. And Cass, he's a Punchline MC. so i don't know which way it would go, But it would be a Great battle non the less.
IT has to be a event like Swizzy vs kayne.. come on Cassidy and papoose 2 of the more talented rappers out.. and it has to be for money.. that battle cant be free
NAS ALBUM ONLY HAS 12 SONGS??..WAT!..HE HAS WAY MORE GREATEST HITS THAN DAT!
I agree. Nas is pretty much my fav rapper of all time nd deres no way that cd will cover his greatest hits. some of his original cds cud prolly be calld greatest hits loll nd i feel swiss on all he sed but damn cass gettn too cocky now he need ta do a battle or suttn wit sumone jus to show he still humble. he aint da best in da game nd i undrstand thas typical him to b cocky nd shit but for real if he confidnt all a battl gon do is help him. nd pap's album drop in december nd im sure cas's is gon drop around dat time prolly a lil later so y not shut pap down. itll help cas wit his sales. unles he afraid of losin. dnt get me wrong cas one a my fav rapprs of all time too bt he need ta step up cus he hasnt in a whil. he dnt Need to but it shdnt do nuttn but help himm
i'm starting to get the impression that cassidy is ducking niggas. first the joe budden shit, now papoose? it seems as if there's alot of niggas that want to see just how much of a "problem" the problem really is. battling is the truest form of hip hop. it's the essence.. nobody's too big to do that. even jay told nas to put up a million, let the proceeds go to charity, and let's get it in on pay-per-view. so it can't be a money thing. i think that shit that swizz is talking is a cop out. he knows that putting cassidy in the fight klub is dangerous for him, because if he were to lose, that would definately stain his career. the nigga swizz is just trying to protect his investment. man up cass.. niggas are coming at your throat!
Cassidy is one of my favorite rappers, and he nice as hell when it comes 2 battlin. put dat nigga papoose is 2 nice wit his vocab. The reason I think swizz wont let cass battle papoose is because if cassidy loose this battle, it will mess up his new album sails and mess up his strong come back
Wow cass, you say u can rip anybody in a battle, but when someone known wants to battle he wont battle em cause they dont have a album out? Cass is the definition of a BITCH. He talks about other niggas in his songs and when its time to interview he backs down and says he wants no beef... And he wont battle niggas that he knows he might lose to. I'm so sick of hearing about how good Cass is when he has done nothing noteworthy except drop a few decent mixtape material and won a few battles in philly. Cant wait for B.A.R.S to come out so this nigga can flop and yall get this niggas dick out yalls mouth.
NAS is the best of all time
2 PAC is second
swizz is right everyone witha deal needs to work on their cds
but cas and pap would be nice
i would just like to see pap get murdered
Nas may be one of the greatest but it shows how shit hip hop is when he's struggling to go platinum with a good album.............
Still don't understand how Nas ain't sold 10million more records.
Cos illmatic,stillmatic,gods son,nastradamus,it was writtten,
all them are fking lyrical classics.....I guess its gonna be the same old shit,Nas will get ignorred and underated whilst he's still in the game,but as soon as he retires everyone gonna be like shit he really was the best.
That NAS freestyle is on Clue's shit... I still have it... It came out around the same time Bleek's "MIND RIGHT" shit dropped... I think I still have all my clue shit. We'll find it later!
~Be eazy!
Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! THANK YOU MUCHOS GRACIAS! Which one [freestyle] are you referring to!?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bIJuo9ztd0
or just type true dialect in you tube,the dude that uploaded that shit,has every fking nas song and freestyle ever.......no lie.
I'll check it out when I get home tonight! I'm takin YOUR WORD on this!
hits gotta happin sooner or later
wa5nt this nigga suppose to battle joe budden???
i bet if it wuz a nobody rapper he would accept that battle.. i would love to see F-A-B-O battle..or bring canibus old ass out let him battle..yeah south niggas respect all kinds of music
hahaha bro im from dallas texas and that shit was ignorant as hell
mook, a nobody, awready tried to battle cass....nd dude couldnt come up wit da cash so that shit aint gone work........in fact serious jones said it best..........."its like kimbo goin from street fights on for free on youtube to professional ppv events which payed out...."y would cas move backword...........dats hustlin backwords goin from a major lime light back to battling for a few Gs when he could make millions jus doin a few tracks and goin on tour
damn i was lookin foward to see that battle
Cassidy vs Freeway=freeway lost(he fuckin sucks so it was an easy win)
cass vs joebudden= that shit never happened? y idk
cass vs murda mook= quote"he aint gunna battle him 4 10,000" end quote thats bs cuz if yall both street ni99as 10,000 shud even matta 2 cass if u kno0 u can bite his head off y not do it?
CASS vs PAP= idk y swizzy is tryna act like cassidy's daddy hes a grown man let him make his own decisions then talkin about he wont do it cuz pap aint got an album? wow are u serious thats sum gay shit...
that wud be 3 ni99as he turn down 2 battle if u say ur a beast and shit and ur gunna end ni99as career if u battle em and if they want it just do it if ur sure about urself.
but my opinion cass vs pap wud be a insane battle but i'll have 2 go with my nigga pap
Nas gets it in. tha ablum is go'in great
calm down my fellow Nas fans we ALL kno the queensbridge Prophet got sumfin up his sleeves 15+ yrs of bangas should prove dat im sure theres a more complete collection to cum probably even wit sum REAL unreleased shyt........ Cass would murder dat dude Pap iz nice but GET FUKIN REAL
PAPOOSE WILL KILL ANY RAPPER ON STAGE OF STAGE IN THE BEDROOM ANY WHERE NO THAT
so swizzy is sayin is after they drop their albums(whenever they gonna do that,been waitin on pap for the past 2 years,who knows when cass will drop) they can battle for money cause then it wont be any excuses
Even though i believe a Cassidy/Papoose battle would be hot, neither artist has the time to think about that! Cass will be dropping next month and im sure Pap is in the studio working on The Nacirema Dream. They should be worrying about album sales and not battling.......and a "Nas Greatest Hits" should have mad songs...all ten from illmatic are classics...and thats only his 1st album
You make a good point even though there aren't 10 tracks on Illmatic... the 1st is the intro, lol... There's 9... sorry 2 be a stickler, but yeah, lol, ILLMATIC, IT WAS WRITTEN, STILLMATIC, AND HHID are classics BY THEMSELVES! God's Son is NASTY... I went back and listened to it a couple weeks ago and I AM is one or two tracks or hot ass beats OFF of a classic... it's about as CLOSE as you can get without bein classic... Ish, the LOST TAPES are better than MOST dude's albums! And, he has one of the Top-5 GREATEST double LP's, STREET'S DISCIPLE, of all time! By the way, Nastradamus is NASTY (LYRICALLY, NOT BEAT-WISE) TOO!
i think pap is sorry am i listening to the wrong tracks? everything i hear cass on his lines are sick. pap is crapppp.
fuk u you fukin dik beatin game junkie blackshin0bi listens to lil fizz. Pap is fire. joe buddens is a bitch i hate him he be talkin shit wen he a bum and a cluk. sukin dik fo cheeeeese burrgaaass and shit.
