Producer J.R. Rotem on Working with Diddy & Cassie, Rates Cassie as an Artist (Part 9)

[@JusRed48]

Vlad's obsession over Cassie as an artist is weird lmao

[@Missave2]

Very weird

[@The1NaMillion]

Yes. He comes off as a scorned lover 😂😂😂

[@DDot-im3jr]

Yeah he sounded like a hater there's plenty of people who can't sing a lick Rihanna can't sing to me her voice is kinda annoying but she has hits there's a lot of studio karaoke 🎤 singers​@@Missave2

[@ruddiato]

"Me and u" and "long way to go" were nice hits. To me personally, if she was wit Ryan leslie,she would've still had a career. What happened was that she got caught up with the glitz and glamour. I dunno about a superstar status, but she would've had a decent career .

[@The1NaMillion]

This man hates on Cass so bag. You'd think he was a scorned lover. I try to watch vlad channel but I just can't do it. Vlad sucks as a yt interviewer 🫠

[@olliesmith4997]

It’s really not he just call it like it is

[@investmentsound902]

Vlad so badly wants to prove cassie was a terrible singer who only made it because of diddy..meanwhile he cant see that hes a terrible interviewer who constantly cuts off his guests to force his point or talk about himself.and who's largely not liked even here in his own comment section.. it's only the guests that keep us watching.. dude has zero situational awareness or class

[@YouSsef-uw5if]

9 minutes discussing wether or not Cassie is an artist? Really Vlad?

[@styleemusic]

He’s been obsessed with that 😂 wierd

[@ch33zybreadtrellie4]

Disgusting really smh

[@flyguy7825]

Yeah, he’s fucked up. I like Vlads videos, but he’s wrong coming after Cassie nobody ever thought that she was the greatest of all time, but she’s certainly not a horrible musical artist by any means.

[@braydonbabbs]

He is so weird for picking on her music. My guess is she turned him down. Something else going on here……

Yall missing what he's trying to point out.

So what, Vlad? Cassie can't sing and you can't produce or mix and you've still got DJ in your name 🤷🏽‍♂

[@JGood92]

Thank you!! Best comment so far 👏 👏 👏

[@braydonbabbs]

YES!!!!! Best comment of the year lol

[@joojoobaw]

easily explainable… the DJ don’t stand for “disc jockey” like you’d think, the DJ stands for “Diddy Jacket”

[@seankiesling2054]

Thats not true. Vlad was a actual DJ out of the bay area before he got into media and made way more money. But he did actually DJ years and years ago...decades ago

[@lowkeyloki8832]

@@seankiesling2054 I’m aware but if he was that good we’d know him for that instead of this. Which is why it’s weird for him to keep pointing out Cassie isn’t a talented singer cause he couldn’t make it as a DJ either.

i was there for rhianna first album launch. It was at the Barbados Hilton and everyone was like wow. This girl can not sing she is just beautiful. However, she got vocal lessons and became a better singer and the most imporatnt part was the she had the IT factor.

Cassie definitely turned a Vlad interview down. 😂

[@SunnyReignz]

Cassie is no different than half the industry. If they wanted her she would've been. A lot of untalented ppl have been shoved in our faces for years.

[@flyguy7825]

Cassie wasn’t untalented I think the whole relationship and situation with Diddy. People are always gonna hold that against her, but her music was not bad. I was bumping her shit back in high school.

[@Tomfrom_woods]

Yeah makes sense

[@SunnyReignz]

@flyguy7825 I'm saying in general how the industry is. It doesn't matter if ur talented or not. If they want u to be somebody they will make it happen.

[@skylifedreamsent]

Greatest versatile producer of all time

[@SquilliamFancySonn]

At this point I think Vlad was invited to a freak off & Cassie said Vlad was ugly she didn’t wanna sleep with him that’s why he bashes Cassie so much

[@schoovaertssimon7904]

If she had not signed to bad boy and dated Diddy she might have kept on making dope music with Ryan Leslie

[@Angels8Harmony]

Everybody has always known that Cassie wasn’t that strong of a singer. Nor an artist to begin with! Let’s not revise history now because she was a victim in an domestic violent relationship. I remember when Cassie first came out back in the day, she wasn’t heralded as a next big artist. Matter of fact, there was even talk back then of how she just came out of nowhere but had no come up story or past records before her fame grinding to make it in the industry. After time passed it came out her and diddy were dating for a long time. Then it all made sense how she skyrocket to a mainstream level. I even remember how diddy was on 106 & park, as well TRL promoting the hell out of her.

[@ch33zybreadtrellie4]

Vlad gives her NO props. He said her first hit was an “accident”. So regardless of what u say, Vlad is just bent on bashing her. To the point that he said she don’t look very attractive and that she isn’t worth hitting and risking ur freedom.

[@flyguy7825]

She’s not but she’s not horrible Vlad attacking Cassie and this dude they’re fucked up like I said she’s not anywhere near one of the all-time greats but she’s not horrible. I was listening to her shit back in high school shit I’m gonna listen to some of her shit now.

[@acpjr]

The reason Vlad erects this strawman is because he is skeptical about her claim of abuse. He simply doesn't sympathize with victims of abuse nor does he understand the various reasons why one would stay in an abusive relationship.

[@markjackson1512]

Do ppl not remember when she performed on 106 park didn’t sound to good she had a couple cool records me and u still get a couple spins

[@mw488]

People don't wanna admit this but it's true

[@godfreyassenga9958]

Vlad could hve a hit song 😂😂😏😏 Ninja plzzzz

[@FlorentStuartKetchamiTchouleng]

[@joojoobaw]

@@FlorentStuartKetchamiTchouleng True… “Russian Ice Baby” or “Vladco Suavé” definitely could have been hits

[@schoovaertssimon7904]

When you're talking about MGK and Cassie and you think Cassie is a bad artist you have problem.

[@fijiunlimited4503]

Cassie should've just used auto-tune.😂 People with less singing skillz than her had hits using it.

[@markjackson1512]

Cassie had a voice like Whitney Houston

[@Curtis-qg4ir]

Preach!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mrt8954]

Vlad still mad she got paid and that he was wrong about everything he has said about or what would happen to her since she kicked Diddy’s back in. Why doesn’t he find someone and ask why so many people are accusing Diddy of assaulting them while they were underage and rate that.

[@MrJ1S]

Vlad wouldn't have to talk about cassie with 5 different ppl if ppl wouldnt argue it. Nobody thought different back then but suddenly in 2024 Cassie needed 100x chances and she'd be the next whitney houston

[@joojoobaw]

idk man… if the first person he argued about it with agreed with him, I think he still would bring it up to 10+ more guests to say he was right

[@MrJ1S]

@joojoobaw the comment section that was 6 yrs old when Cassie was out been arguing with him.

[@acpjr]

Nah, Vlad is making a strawman argument. There is no such narrative that Puffy held back her career.

[@coldcodyofficial]

Talk about trying to kick someone when they already down. Smh

[@flyguy7825]

First off what’s the point in bashing Cassie listen is she one of the all-time greats not even close but she wasn’t horrible. I’ve heard a lot worse. The reason Cassie is getting this hate is because of the whole situation and the fact that Diddy pottery, but don’t come after Cassie Vlad is wrong for that Bruh really

[@Mike818-CA]

This guy is right. Cassie has no talent - she is lucky Diddy discovered her in the club and then he brought her to the studio and signed her. If that did not happen - she would not have made it in the music industry. She got rich off that album though and even richer after he paid her off after the lawsuit came out. She is lucky she is not working as a bartender somewhere or a bottle girl. That proves that anyone can make it in Urban Music if you have the connections and a few good songs that she did not write. He took her under his wing - made her a star and then took advantage of her because he is a low-life dirt bag. He is where he belongs.
