CHECK FOR THIS ONE! The beat on “I Get My Paper” is sick, but don’t think the beat is the only thing blazing. But I like this one! The next track has that mellow beat on it that I am digging, it’s titled “Done 4 Me”, and you have Cassidy spitting some grown up lyrics. He said he is tired of the dumb rap and when the real is gone come back, that is what we are wondering. Angie Stone on the hook (after Yolanda Adams turned it down), but you got to hear this one! “Damn I Miss The Game” is next and Cassidy let’s his frustrations out about the state of Hip-Hop.
But don’t sleep on this one, this is a hot one! “Leanin’ On The Lord” follows, and you have an introspective Cassidy on this track telling stories about hardships including his own. This shows his versatility rapping with Bone over a Bone beat. The first thing I notice is the up tempo beat that Cassidy spits over. Next song features Bone Thugs N Harmony and Eve along with Cassidy titled “Cash Rulez”. “Innocent” is next up and the track is on the wack side, but the lyrics are on point, nothing major on this song, just another song on the album that sounds okay. The song is pretty good, definitely worth a listen. “I Pray” is on deck, and you see a mellowed out Cassidy on this record with an assist from Shizlansky. Lyrics are on point, but the hook has to grow on you. I thought that campaign was over, but guess not. The track is about snitching…uh uh! Well actually not snitching.

Cass is on top of his game with lines like, “I don’t walk around now pretending I’m Gotti, but I still clap the Mac 10 to somebody.” BANGER! Next up is “Will Never Tell (Uh Uh)”, initially the hook sounds funny but as the song goes on, it grows on you. Neo da Matrix puts together a sinister beat that goes well with all the gun talk on this track. Hot single, but I question Cass about his constant references to him beating a murder rap? Maybe that is something to brag about, I wouldn’t do it! “Where My Niggas At” follows, and this is one of those rowdy, rowdy, bout it, bout it, up north tracks. HOT! The next one up is the lead single “My Drink & My 2 Step”.
This shows you why Cassidy is well respected in the freestyle arena. If you love freestyle battles, you will love this battle. The album kicks off with an intro titled “B.A.R.S versus Da Hustla” which is a continuation off his old albums where he battles his alter ego. One can wonder, can he shake off some disappointments with previous projects and dismiss the notion that battle rappers can’t make good albums? After making big noise on the mixtape circuit, Cassidy is ready to be considered in the same circles with Hip-Hop’s elite. The Philly rhyme fanatic looks to make a name for him as an emcee not just a battle rapper. After a tumultuous year where he was cleared on a murder and a car accident that nearly claimed his life, Cassidy returns with B.A.R.S.
