Cassidy Laughs at Thought of Dizaster Punching Him

Cassidy spoke confidently about his ability to defeat Dizaster in their upcoming battle during this clip from his exclusive interview with VladTV.
It's taken a long time to get him in the ring, but after being offered $250k to battle, Cassidy has finally decided to step into the ring. However, he's going up against one of the true veterans of the sport in Dizaster, who previously dismantled the likes of Canibus in an epic clash on KOTD.
When asked about the "underdog" label that has been pinned on him by the Battle Rap fans, Cassidy dismissed the perception of himself and stated that if people really assess this match, Dizaster is the true underdog. Cassidy spoke about how Dizaster has been beaten in the past and that he's never lost, so he doesn't understand how people can view him as the contender in this match. He went so far as to state "I'm untouchable," so he'll certainly have a lot to prove when it comes time to step in the lyrical ring.
Being that Dizaster's last match was a violent one against Math Hoffa, Cassidy was asked if he feels at all concerned about Dizaster attempting to punch him during their battle. Just the thought of Dizaster hooking off on him mid-verse was comical to Cassidy and he burst out into laughter as a result. After composing himself, he assured fans that their battle will be strictly lyrical "for the culture," but at the same time he is ready for whatever occurs once the battle begins.
Cassidy Speaks On Being Paid $250,000 to Battle Dizaster
Cassidy sat down for an exclusive interview with VladTV, where he opened up about battling rappers off camera. The Philly emcee says he's been called to the studio by the likes of Busta Rhymes and Timbaland to battle their artists, including DJ Envy's artist Coke, as well as Philly's Most Wanted.
Cassidy: Jay Z Set Up My Battle Against Freeway
Cassidy opens up about the time he's spent around Jay Z through his friendship with Swizz Beatz, and explains that he doesn't have a close relationship with the Brooklyn rapper. He adds that the most time he spent around Jay was when the "Big Pimpin" rapper set up his battle with Freeway in 2001.
When asked if he feels like there is enough lyricism in Hip-Hop today, Cassidy doesn't hesitate when saying "Hell no. Of course not." He remarks that lyricism is his favorite part of the game, and believes that battle rap is flourishing right now because the rappers have bars.
Speaking of lyricism, the "I'm a Hustla" rapper says that he doesn't listen to too much music these days other than Chubby Jag, and believes that he still has the best bars in the game. He expands more on the issue by saying that some of today's rap needs to be put in its own category.
