Cassie is set to release her new mixtape "Rocka Bye Baby," and recently sat down with XXL magazine to talk about working with Diddy, and why she's not competing with Rihanna, "yet."

When asked what it was like working with rumored love interest Diddy, Cassie responded "Yeah, we're working together. He's helped me a lot with this project in trying to find where I fit in the world. I don't know a better way to put that. [Laughs.] But, definitely. We work together." 

Cassie also talked about not being in the same lane as Rihanna and Katy Perry, but thinks she'll be there soon. 

"I don't consider myself in the running. I consider myself such an underdog. Rihanna is seven albums in. She is non-stop working. I have been too, but on a totally different plane and level. Just not out, all over the world like that. I really started focusing on something."

She continued, "I would go away from it and come back. I'm just really a perfectionist with everything. So I don't consider myself in the running with them. Hopefully soon! I'm working towards that. I think they're all really awesome." 

Cassie recently released her video for "Paradise," which features Wiz Khalifa, and from the looks of it, you'll be seeing a lot more of Cassie in the future.
