03/08/08 - Cassidy Denies Setting Up Papoose For Fat Joe

Legendz · 03-08-2008, 04:21 AM

The talk about the Fat Joe vs. Papoose fight hasn't died down since it was first reported. Now, after both sides are out there, a new explanation has come out -- from rapper Cassidy, who was on hand during the incident.

During an interview on New York's Hot 97 radio station with personality, Miss Jones, the Philadelphia explained his side of things after Papoose made it seem -- in several interviews -- like he set him up by Cassidy, when he was invited to Cass' hotel room just before Fat Joe arrived.

Cassidy spoke about the situation, claiming that he had no bad intentions when he invited the mixtape phenom to his room. Instead, he was just trying to build a relationship with Papoose, so they could possibly work together in the future.

"We was all staying in the same hotel," Cass explained. "So it wasn't like I called Papoose from his home to my home, and then something happened to him, or I called him from far away and he came into an unfamiliar area. We was staying in the same hotel on the same floor -- Me, Fat Joe and Papoose. So I definitely wouldn't set Papoose up... it definitely wasn't my fault I was just reaching out, trying to communicate, trying to build relationships.

"That was actually my first time actually conversating with Papoose when I seen him in a hotel," he continued. "I ran into him a couple of times and seen his face, but I never got a chance to bust it up with him or communicate with him. And being to the fact, that he's up and coming and he's doing his thing and he's definitely got a little buzz, I wanted to build a relationship and hopefully we could have did a song or something in the future."

(Listen to the interview here.)

He goes on to say that his crew answered the door when Fat Joe showed up -- due to their longtime relationship -- he was automatically let in. Cass said, though, that he had no communication with Fat Joe before hand, to call him, to let him know Papoose was there, further backing up his statement that it wasn't a setup.

During the interview, Cassidy dodged questions about the actual fight, saying that he was either "not paying attention" or had already "excused himself." He did, however, confirm that the two did exchange words at first, asking one another if they "had a problem?" before any blows were exchanged.

The rapper explained that if he had known about the beef prior, he would have tried to mediate the fight.

"I don't know what the beef is over," he told Miss Jones. "If I knew it was a beef already, I could have jumped up and tried to neutralize the situation. Like 'don't blow it out of proportion' or 'don't do it in there.' Due to the fact that they were on the radio the night before Fat Joe felt some type of way. I didn't know about that. I was on the road traveling around doing my shows, so I didn't know about the radio situation and I didn't know that Joe had a problem with Papoose."

Cassidy stressed that he wasn't a shady person, and repeatedly explained that he had no reason to set up Pap, despite whatever is being said.

"All I really wanted to do is let the world know that I'm not a shiesty dude. I'm a good dude," Cassidy expressed. "At the end of the day, when I'm building a relationship with a rapper or anyone in the world, I want them to feel safe around me. I don't want them to feel like I'm a shiesty dude that's gonna set something up."

criff · 03-08-2008, 05:21 AM

I dont know about this Cass dude, he problaby did set him up.
I mean when Fat Joe enters the room, Cass goes out the room??? SUSPICIOUS ANYONE?
If he didnt know what the beef was about? Then why dont ask if you care for them both?
Bullshit. Hope Pap disses him.

true true son... but yo iono cass seems sincere in wht he saying... he'd be a stupid nigga to set up pap for no reason... I think its just Fat hoe that was a bitch made nigga and came with his niggaz

MakaveIi · 03-08-2008, 05:26 PM

Cassidy already has a song w/ Pap & Busta, so I don't see how this would be his 1st time talking to him, I guess, him and Pap worked on it at different times.

rkwilliamsjr · 03-08-2008, 07:13 PM

in my opinion i think cass didn't answer the question cause the story is closer to the pap version. i mean joe said he found pap in his own room and that's where it happened. but cass said it was in his room. plus since he's closer to joe he doesn't want joe to sound like a bitch for losing to pap.

Ant_Mo · 03-09-2008, 12:10 AM

rkwilljr's got it

cass spoke some real shit a nigga would do

if i aint no two niggas had beef i aint gon step in
dont know whats goin on and whats about to happen
i'da got outta there too
cus he said he was there when words were exchanged
and then i guess he rolled when blows were thrown
why would you stay?...so you can get shot possibly
i dont care how gangster you are, smart niggas survive .
i wouldnt of takin sides with who was gettin who in the fight
...that'll prolly have them comin for you...plus...your on candid camera and they have a task force just for you.
cass is a smart dude

No, Joe said he went knocking on all the doors until he found the room that Pap was in. Which happened to be Cassidy's.

akajoseph · 03-10-2008, 01:24 PM

man I don't know about Cassidy stepping out the room like that after he invite the elephant in the room.

At power 105 when 50 was hosting the show and he invite Pap and Max B. when Pap showed up and notice there was tension between Pap and Max. right away he got in between them and kept things from getting thight. he escort Pap out the room and spoke to him.

50 took responsibility cause thats his guests. he invited both of them. and thats coming from a dude that suppose to be mad shady and worry just about him

now we got Cassidy on the other hand; humble dude and all; humble = peace keaper; man of god if what not ; just clearly open the door to his hotel room and let that elephant in the room. nothing wrong wit that since he claim he aint no there was tension between the two. but once he notice there was tension being that its his room and those are 2 people that he is kool wit; and invited in; he should of step in the middle and be like respect me niggas take that away from here; this is my space!

but instead that nigga just step out; no body was asking that nigga to preach to those cats or anything u know; just take a bit responsibility for the setting that u hosted;

I mean 50 could of just sat back and just thought about his new $63,000 teeth; and be nah dem niggas aint worth $63G both put together and am a let them cats do what they do cause that aint even my office space; that aint even my neverland ranch in CT so that don't effect me no way; but he didn't did he
