Cassidy Speaks on Why He Is No Longer Interested in Battle Rap

Back in the day, Cassidy was popular in the battle rap scene. He even battled Freeway in the early 2000s, and murked him. But, this is 2014, and Cass says he is no longer interested in that spot. He feels doing anything that would jeopardize the money he is making with his mainstream music career doesn't make sense for his future. Read his words on this below. 





During his recent sit-down with VladTV, he was asked if he would ever consider the battle rap circuit again, and he said...



“That shit is a business. Now back in the day, before it was a business, before I was making money, that’s what I was doing all the time ‘cause that’s where I was at in the game. But now everything I do I get paid for. I’m not gonna go battle some nigga and fuck with this permanent money that I’m gonna be able to get forever to just please a couple niggas. That shit gon’ have to make perfect sense. The nigga I battle gotta be a perfect nigga so after I do it—I know the outcome, what it’s gonna be. He gon’ get destroyed. But after I destroy him, I’ll be able to bring shit to the table for Mayhem Music, my family, my team and not just no 30 [or] 40 grand. That shit ain’t about nothing. That shit ain’t about nothing.”
