Cassidy Airs Out His Deteriorating Relationship With Swizz Beatz On Twitter

[keone]

Change in life is inevitable. Even the best of friends and sometimes business associates can drift apart. That appears to be what happened between Cassidy and super producer Swizz Beatz.

The duo that once had clubs jumping with songs like "I'm A Hustla" are no longer on speaking terms according to Cassidy.

The Hustla vented earlier this week about the situation via twitter, saying he can't get Swizz to answer his calls.
"@THEREALSWIZZZ don't even answer my calls anymore: we ain't speak in over a year: I thought we was fam, but times change, Smh. That's why I changed.. Ain't no love loss.. It is what it is," Cas wrote. "It's never a war, I'm just speaking my mind.. How can we talk if you never pick up, You said you let me do my own thing ASAP, but what does that have to do wit communicating, since I'm doing my own thing you don't talk to me anymore.. Thats crazy."

Before dropping the subject Cassidy said the only reason he even uses the social networking site was to communicate with Swizz.

The duo's last hit collaboration was 2007's "My Drink N My Two Step" off of Cassidy's 'B.A.R.S.' album.

Say what you will, but that reads real "bitch made"...

I'm almost doubting the bul Cass even wrote that.

 

[smiffnwessun]

Swizz is a snake in the gras any nigga willing to leave his wife for some popular pussy is a scum bag....but on the flip side cassidy is a murderer.

 

[peterlongshort]

What a bitch

 

[Damn Right]

dayum. the state of some young dudes these days is pathetic

 

[sirwoodz]

that's because swizz is a business man with a big ass state of the art house (i saw cribs nigga!) and alicia keys as a wife....

cassidy is a bonafide 100% street nigga that can't seem to stop being involved in some type of murder...

if swizz were smart he'd block cassidy on twitter and move on with his life.

I know swizzle that nigga is like diddy, he also buys beats from no name producers and slaps his whack drums on them and calls the beats his. Dirty ass dominican.

beat me to it

 

[exiledking]

I kinda suspected this would happen when I saw Cass spitting after that case. He's blown every shot he ever had, and didn't really capitolize on his time when he had it.

Swizz must be the ony thing resembling a bridge he has left.

I noticed he was spitting extra hard on the Cosmic Kev show, like he had something to prove, and someone to prove it to.


Too little, too late.

He's even burned a lot of bridges in Philly as well, it seems.

who told you this? cant seem to stop being involved in some type murder?

 

[Helico-pterFunk]

Swizz is undoubtedly trying to distance himself from the cat ... and why not? His career is still strong, and he's fresh off a baby and marriage to Alicia Keys ... meanwhile Cas' is airing shit out on Twitter and has had a rough number of years.

Personal life
[edit] Murder case

On April 15, 2005 three men, including Cassidy, armed with .45 and .40 caliber handguns, 9 mm pistols, and an AK-47 variant rifle, fired on three unarmed men during an argument that occurred in the West Oak Lane neighborhood in Northwest Philadelphia. Desmond Hawkins was killed by a shot in the back. Hawkin's two other friends were treated at hospitals for gunshot wounds and released.

On June 8, a warrant was issued for Cassidy's arrest on charges of murder, attempted murder, reckless endangerment, aggravated assault, conspiracy and weapons possession. Cassidy surrendered to Philadelphia police on the afternoon of June 17.[2] At his arraignment on Saturday, June 18, he was denied bail, and sent to Philadelphia's Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility, a medium-security prison, where he would serve his time during the trial and after he was sentenced.[3]

Cassidy's murder case took a turn when the primary witness withdrew his confession. This resulted in the judge stating that Cassidy would stand trial for 3rd degree murder. On August 16, 2005, Municipal Judge Marsha Neifield ruled that prosecutors had sufficient evidence to charge Cassidy with third-degree murder, attempted murder charges, and weapons offenses. This was later overturned to the original, first degree charge - negating the possibility of parole. On January 25, 2006 Cassidy was convicted of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of aggravated assault and possession of an instrument of crime for his involvement in the shooting. He was sentenced to 11 to 23 months in prison plus probation and was credited with the 7 months he had already served.[4][5]

Cassidy was released from Pennsylvania's Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility on March 2, 2006 after serving eight months.[6]

Cassidy talks about his arrest and time in prison in the 2011 film Rhyme and Punishment, which documents various Hip-Hop artists who have done county jail or state/federal prison time.
[edit] Car accident

Cassidy was seriously injured in a vehicle accident on the night of October 5, 2006 when a commercial truck collided with his SUV while he was a passenger. He was taken to the Jersey City Medical Center, where he was diagnosed with a fractured skull and several broken bones on the left side of his face. He still has visible scars from the accident.[7][8][9]
“ "I was in a coma for about seven or eight days," he said. "And then they put me into a medicated coma, so that if I woke up I wouldn't be traumatized by what I went through. When I first woke up out of my coma, I had amnesia, so I couldn't really remember everything. I didn't have full amnesia; I could remember certain things. The only people I really knew were my mom, my son, people that's real close that you knew all your life. I knew their names but even certain experiences I couldn't remember at first. I couldn't remember none of my raps, even the songs I performed — 'Hotel,' 'I'm a Hustla,' none of that. The doctor told me that I suffered brain damage, but it was temporary, it wasn't permanent. So the same way it takes time for your body to heal, he said it's gonna take your brain time to heal."

hate to break to to yall but... just bc you're a black man, doesnt mean you have street cred. This b.s. drives me crazy. I feel for Cass who is obviously victim to the same b.s. the rest of us artists are dealing with.

A few celected chosen few get the papes...while the community at large dances and jives for a quarter.

The nerve of Swizz to act high society. Don't make me start quoting Cee-lo and make everyone feel like chil'ren up in here.

cass asked to be released from full service to sign with carmelos label.

i hate to use this analogy but it kinda like a pimp getting knocked for his bottom bitch and the chick wanna come back around and be friends.

i blame the label heads tho for tricking all these young artists into thinking shit is a "family" instead of a "business agreement". thats been the default way to do biz in the industry ever since berry gordy laid his pimp hand down on the music industry. the pimp model gets passed down.

 

[SYDNEYSTREETZ]

nucca laid up wit alicia personally i wouldnt be answering nobody calls real rap

- while true and definitely ass-hole-ish, i'd rather be this than connected to multiple murders

Gettin your Acur on huh sirwoodz?

- nah, just using common sense.

swizz beats ain't perfect, but cassidy always finds himself connected to murders...

I don't care if you have a business shoveling dog shit off the sidewalk; having somebody working for you that always finds himself around murder is bad business.

 

[Cock Head Jones]

im waiting for sirwoodz to explain all these murders. i know of 1 manslaughter case that he did time for. what are all the other murders u speak of? is he a hitman? serial killer?

Rapper Cassidy is actually not a murder suspect, say N.J. police in new statement

CBS) - Philadelphia rapper Cassidy, recently arrested on a probation violation in Hackensack, N.J., is not a murder suspect as originally reported by several media outlets.

The artist, real name Barry Reese, was arrested May 14 solely on charges of violating probation in an an aggravated assault case, a representative from the Philadelphia police department told XXLMag.com.

Lt. Timothy Lloyd of the Hackensack police had told NorthJersey.com that although the warrant was issued for violating probation, Reese was also a suspect in a murder and two attempted murders in Philadelphia.

According to Lloyd, Reese "was very surprised" when police arrested him, reports NorthJersey.com.

The rapper was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in a 2006 shooting case and sentenced to 11-and-a-half to 23 months in jail.
