The meeting led Cassidy to DJ at the 2001 wedding of Jennifer Lopez and Cris Judd. Cassidy has a signature look, and is known for his trademark boater hat, cricket sweaters, bow ties and multicoloured tuxedos. In 2020, Cassidy launched his Pass The Mic series - a concept developed during lockdown which sees him Zoom into the homes of musical legends - all while sat at the turntables in his living room. It was a huge success with nostalgic RnB lovers looking to fill the musical void that lockdown left. Cassidy's Pass The Mic: BET Awards Edition led to speculation that the singer is blind. He sported dark shades, despite being in a well-lit room, but to public knowledge, Cassidy is not in fact blind.
