Cassie to release mixtape/EP titled "Rock-A-Bye Baby"

Earlier this year, Cassie released her electro/dance single "King of Hearts" and it hasn't gained a lot of success. Since doing that, she's been laying low when it comes to the music scene. 

Sometime last month, Cassie wrote a letter to her fans updating them on the status of her severely delayed sophomore studio album. She also announced that a mixtape/EP titled "Rock-A-Bye Baby", will be released at the end of summer. The singer/model has recently changed management and she's been in the studio working on her album with writers and producers like Ester Dean and will.i.am.

Read her letter, after the jump.

A letter to my fans: Hey!! How are you guys? I’m great! I just moved, so I’m getting settled at my new place. I had a dope session with Ester Dean last night. She is… Everything I needed and I’m cutting another record with Will.I.Am today. Not bad, huh? I’m working simultaneously on my album and my Mixtape/EP. I know you all are wondering, Mixtape, huh? Well… I think the best we can be as human beings is to be resilient, right? I’m now at Interscope still with Bad Boy, which is amazing. I have GREAT new management that you’ll find out about soon and everything is FINALLY falling into place the way it’s supposed to, but one thing is missing. The music being delivered to you. Now, we all know that this album has been years in the making. Creating, starting over, changing, leaks, growing, starting….never stopping :) BUT I wouldn’t change any minute of it. You get a better version of me for being so patient. This additional project is for you guys. My Mixtape is called Rock-A-Bye Baby, don’t take it so literal… Lol. You’ll see why. I am so proud of this project. It’s not pop, it’s not R&B, it’s Cassie. It’s why you fucked with me in the first place. I love you guys and your continued love and support. I’m a lucky girl. So…. don’t get frustrated OR upset with me!!! Okay??? ;) I know you feel like you’ve gotten the run around. Trust me, I have too. Something wonderful/exciting/fantastic is being created, just for you…because I love you guys and because I can ;)
