Cashis - The County Hound 2

[CanadaPure]

Cashis was so damn annoying on Shady Records. I remember when he tried to pick a fight with Royce

Like CP said, he is a so-so gangsta rapper. Dime a dozen type of fella

Exactly, his attitude on Shady sucked. I admire his loyalty, but he was irritating.

Agreed, that song was insane to me, I listened to it on repeat the entire summer of 2007, I loved that song so much. I didn't discover Serenade My Life until much later, but I loved that one too. I like about half-3/4 the music he put out from 2007-2009, after that he went from average, with the potential to be pretty good, to complete shit for the most part. His voice was awesome, and he was able to put out some pretty nice hooks, like on this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQ3ZAUg239o

I liked the County Hound EP, I hope this is at least at that level. I wish we could hear an Em verse, but that's almost impossible, I doubt Cashis can even reach Eminem anymore.

Didn't Ca$his say that the beat from "You Think That I'm Crazy" was newer and he asked Em to "Do it like the old days" or some shit like that?

I went through a Cashis phase in 2011, I used to love all of his music. The Re-Up had some of my favourite songs by him.
His voice is one of my favourites, but he's produced some pretty shoddy material lately.

I like the You Think That I m crazy song, its crazy, I got the CDQ version and its dope as fuck...when the beat fades out...

I do like it a lot too... my all time fave Cashis tracks are Ms. Jenkins & Serenade my life though! Both stone cold classics in my opinion. Ms. Jenkins made me believe Cashis was gonna be the next big thing back in the day... but it didn't really work that way.

If people took Ca$his for what he is, a so-so gangster rapper who talks about what he's experienced, he'd be easier to accept. I think the hype Eminem gave him that he simply doesn't have the skill to live up to hurt his career more than it helped it. He doesn't have the charisma to be huge like 50, and that's what Em was trying to sell him as.
He's a decent street rapper, and when I'm in the mood for that style of music, Ca$his' gritty sound is great. Eminem just tried to sell him as more than what he is.

You have a point but it was/is way more complicated than that. I won't go into details 'cuz I'd annoy the fuck outta all y'all but pretty much at some point Cashis deserved to release a full album on Shady. You're totally right he never had 50's mass appeal & charisma though.

He came hard on The Re-Up too... he was put as Shady Records' main artist for a little bit at this point.

I feel exactly the same way.

About the Em verse... Cashis can only reach out to Em's peeps nowadays & only for beats which were done back then.

[Dr. Shady]

I hope the ''Miana'' Track that Em produced back in the day is on that EP

Song Producer 'Rikanatti' tweeted:

I co-produced 2 tracks with @Eminem for @TheRealCashis new project 'the County Hound 2'


Maybe a new Cashis ft Eminem coming? Not that you guys probobly care so much but I just wanted to share this information.

Shit, not another Rihanna collaboration.

The quality & the crazy buzz were right there... Dre & 50 gave mad props to Cashis too which made Em totally confident about him at the time. If Proof didn't die & the rest shit that piled up didn't happen, Em probably wouldn't have totally lost it at the time & probably Cashis would have had his album out. The other thing is before Em was clean he didn't have problems to affiliate to all those things Cashis was doing on street level. 50 was too rich & stopped doing all that but Cashis was always a real gangsta & could easily have two guns, powder, weed & pills when he was around Em most of the time. After Em got clean... there was definitely no room for Cashis because Em didn't wanna affiliate himself to all this anymore. He mentioned Cashis in one of those Relapse interviews & then asked Cashis to go to rehab which Cashis unfortunately could not do. From there on Em had to distant himself from him... which he did.
Another misstep was when Cashis did that interview & said Em was looking to improve Shady Records 'cuz there was a huge gap in between him as a solo artist & the other acts/artists on the label so he was chosen by Em to narrow that gap... that made Obie bitter & most likely D12 members didn't really feel that too 'cuz all of the sudden there was tension all over the place.
There were tens of wrong things that happened in that crazy period & that made everything impossible in the label in general... not only for Cashis actually.

[Emadyville]

surprised cashis is even still doing it, is it even still signed to shady? i mean its been what almost a decade and he never released an album smh

[Amaranthine]

I think it's cool that Em still does things with former Shady artists. It's not like once they're off his label he won't work with them anymore.

Nah Emady... Cashis is officially off Shady for quite some time now. His buzz is totally outta here so it does like he's not doing anything indeed though.

[TheGentlePlayer]

So two new beats? Great!!
