Cassie's "Me & U" Tops Out at #1
NEW YORK, NY -- August 08, 2006
-- With her smash debut single, "Me & U," riding
the top of the charts, NextSelection/Bad Boy
Entertainment recording artist Cassie hits stores
today with her self-titled debut album.
"Me & U" tops out at #1 on this week's Billboard
Rhythmic Airplay chart as well as #1 on R&R's CHR/Rhythmic
chart. Last week, "Me & U" reached #1 on
Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, making
Cassie the first female in nearly two years to
hold the top spot on the chart. The single also
ranks at #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 Airplay chart
for a third week in a row.
Cassie Appearance, "LIVE with
Regis and Kelly" August 14th.
"Me & U" was the #1 most played video on MTV last
week, and the #3 most played on BET. Cassie will
make appearances today on both "TRL" and BET's
"106 & Park." Just last month, Cassie made her
national television debut, performing "Me & U" on
MTV's "TRL." The video hit #1 on "TRL's" countdown
in June and repeatedly held the top spot. She also
appeared on "Sucker Free on MTV" August 1st.
Born and raised in Connecticut, Cassie's chance
meeting with NextSelection's Ryan Leslie led her
to focus her creative energies on a series of demo
recordings, including "Me & U." When the songs
were posted on Cassie's newly created MySpace
page, she became an online sensation, quickly
drawing over 2 million visitors and sparking a
label bidding war. To date, her site has seen
nearly 8 million visitors, and Cassie is the first
artist to break on such a large scale after being
discovered by fans on MySpace. "CASSIE" was
produced by Leslie, who also executive produced
the album along with Bad Boy founder and CEO
Diddy.
Just last week, Pepsi launched a radio spot
featuring Cassie, which is airing in nearly 75
markets across the country. A performance on "LIVE
with Regis and Kelly" is slated to air August
14th.
