Bad Boy R&B singer Cassie will release her as-yet-untitled sophomore album on May 20, and she says although "I hate to use the words grown-up, I really, really did since the last time around." "I guess I grew up a lot but I'm still in essence the same person," says the 21-year-old singer. "Lots has changed in my life, stuff that has made me think about things differently. I'm more vulnerable and you can hear my vocals better this time around. There's real emotion and a much realer connection with my fans."

The album features production from Seven, Mario Winans, Bryan Michael Cox, Eric Hudson, Sean C and LV and mentor Ryan Leslie, who discovered the Connecticut native. There are no guest features recorded as of yet.And although a first single hasn't been released, Cassie assures it will be "a club record -- something fun and danceable."

In the mean time you can listen to a cut by Cassie for the soundtrack to Step Up 2: The Streets. Step Up 2: The Streets will be Cassie's big screen debut. The movie hits theaters February 14th.
