==Trivia revamp=cassidy the rapper is the shit but he can suck my big black ass dick because i think he is a bitch ass hoe and that he can't battle worth shit and i hope he get's hit with another car and dies with the trivia section...
Took out "He will be featured on Tyreses New Album Alter Ego." - cuz he wasn't on it took out * He's one of the best freestylers that ever made it in this industry - that is opinion took out the word rappers from the ruff ryders. cashmoney tour (it's assumed nas, 50 and yayo are rappers) took the quotes and minor re-word to the Saigon statement
I put him as a rumored guest on quan's album (as on the wiki page a tracks featuring him and nas is under the rumored section)
changed - He will be featured on the new DJ Clue album - to an updated version, and gave the track title changed Cass'll to cassidy will in the cory gunz album changed - * With 13 he started to rap. - to Started to rap at age 13 - terrible grammar changed * He tries to buy the 76ers before he's 35-years-old. - to he wants to buy... changed the dipset concert to past tense changed - he made a concert with mashonda... to he did a concert...He's georgious
not too sure about it, but the rumor about the album with Mario, is that talking about Go!, and is he just going to be featured on the album on one song, or many songs? if anyone knows, perhaps they should add it. and I also tried to arrange the trivia into sections I jsut think it makes it a lil easier to read, it's not definitive cuz i wasn't sure about some stuff, but it goes Beef, Videos, Music, and Other ~Tydamann
I've made some grammatical changes to the trivia section and also taken out references to the magazine covers, since they already have their own section. But it's all mentioned in the edit history. More when I have time! Cloudz679 21:24, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
The verified trivia has been integrated into the article where possible, and the unsourced statements have, on the whole, been removed. There is no longer a trivia section! Cloudz679 02:35, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

On January 25, 2006, Cassidy was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and aggrevated assault. He was sentenced to 11 1/2 to 23 months in prison.

I would like to include this in the main entry, but it is unfortunately protected and consequently out of date.
[edit] 50 cent beef
I have read in an article that the so called beef with 50 cent and g-unit was really just a publicity stunt and Cassidy had respect for the G-unit crew.
[edit] This article needs major work
I think a complete overhaul needs to be done. For example, "He has a son" well thats basic, how old, with who, whats their relationship. That kind of thing, major expandsion is neccisary, I think he famous enough for there to be TONS of content available. Copyediting would be very nice, lots of fragments, run-ons, mispellings and generally poorly written. Furthermore the car accident needs lots of attention since its a current and developing event, theres a lot of coverage in the Media, AP/MTV/Yahoo etc. and that section is tiny. A complete overhaul would be very helpful. There are also a myriad of uncourced statements and POV issues. Poorly cited. The info is there, lots of links, this page just needs some love! =)Qrc2006 18:01, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Categories are also lacking he is of African and Dominican descent, he's American, those cats should be added, well all relevant ones should anyways.
Alot of the beef section is rumors. Wikipedia is not for gossip only facts. I am going to delete the speculations.
[edit] Singer?
Is there a reason he can't be listed as "Cassidy (rapper)"?
[edit] Uh...
I'm not too fond of some of the opening paragraph... I'm going to try re-wording it (and spelling it correctly). If you don't like it, then you can just revert the page.

[edit] Jail
I could be wrong about this but i think cassidy is in jail for murder, that might be something important to include in the article. Also there are a bunch of weird wordings that should be changed such as
Next to Lloyd Banks is Tony Yayo, who also claims that he has beef with Cassidy due that he met him and the shake hands
due that he met him and the shake hands?
I have referenced all the details relating to Cassidy's arrest and trial Cloudz679 22:50, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] RIAA Certification for I'm a Hustla
I removed the "Gold" status last night, and again today. The RIAA have never certified Cassidy's "I'm a Hustla" album. Even if it sold enough units, it's not certified until the record company requests the certification. If you want to check my sources look at [1] and [2]. Anyone else changing this album's certification status to "Gold" will have their edits reverted. Cloudz679 22:02, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Actually It was certified Gold by the RIAA. http://www.riaa.com/gp/database/search_results.asp If it doesnt work go to searchable database type in Cassidy and you'll see it was certified on January 26th, 2007.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.110.72.130 (talk • contribs) 2007-04-17
The link you cited doesn't work; the correct link doesn't certify any Cassidy album apart from Split Personality as of current date Cloudz679 22:28, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
You must be stupid. The RIAA certified it Gold January 26th, 2007

As stated in your own post, the certification refers to the single. The album, as I mentioned before, has not been certified to date. Please also see your talk page regarding your recent edits. Cloudz679 16:40, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
