this is true.
At least on Wayne. Haven't heard about Nas having writers

Gillie Da Kid.

This is like.... KNOWN Tha Carter isn't Weezy's pen. Like Father Like Son is a Gillie

dr dre has been known to not write his raps.

And nobody is trying to call him a top 10 lyricist lol.

And who are you claiming wrote for Pac or Kenny?

There's multiple multiple multiple sources that confirmed thay throughout the years.

How old are you?

You're trying to dispute something thats been concrete for years.
Literally claiming Gillie isn't "punchline heavy".
Gillie is known for his lines to be very Wayne-ish. Rapping whole scenarios for 3-4-5 bars with all punchlines.

I DO think Wayne is better than his Gillie songs but... its been known

“weak flows, simplistic rhyme schemes. really not saying much at all in these songs”

Lol

Source of nas ghost writers?

Source of Kendrick lol?

drake writing for other people negates any ghost writer questions in my eyes

man went pc just like dell and windows

If we’re talking about EMCEEs, I don’t think hits/sales/numbers can be part of the argument

Thissssss

There were whispers about it years ago. There were also whispers about Lupe Fiasco writing on the Black album.

Word?

Lmaooo nigga posted youtube videos about beef. this aint proof

Show PROOF. Nigga said concrete like this s*** aint a f***in rumor

Yup. It was never proven but basically every rap GOAT has had whispers of having ghostwriters from B.I.G. to 2Pac to Eminem to Jay Z to Nas.

He's still top ten if you omit this.

No one is spitting better than Drake on Two Birds One Stone, Is There More, Omertà, 4PM, 5AM, Barry Bonds Freestyle, 9am,

He's been spitting for over a decade on this level.

The Ghostwriting conspiracy is wild because he's explained it plenty of times, and told y'all the rap records that he's written 100% of them.

Like he's TOLD YALL This

And people just...ignore it lol it's not like he can't rap just because he's experimenting with different writers.

as far as greatness he will go down as top 10 off of accomplishments alone. not the biggest fan of his but you'll be ignorant not to put him on your top 10. sales, influence, rapping ability, and hits.

This one of my issues with Drake tbh. I try not to let it get to me too much but this recent rapping about catching bodies, sending shots and spinning blocks is kinda lame.

lol honestly a lot of people don't realize what goes on behind the scenes of many rappers. even the most lyrical rappers aren't constructing a song from the ground up. there is a team making the beat, hook and even apart of the melody.

I think is time for drake’s fans to stop engaging in these silly debates, with idiots that will never respect drake achievements. His impact on culture is vivid, from his impact on new artists using melodies in rap etc

I mean not always.

Like for instance, almost all of Drake's hit records have been penned by him. They may have been arranged / worked on by other people, but the lyrics by in large were him.

And that's per him. I'm not there, none of us are. So if that's what he said happens then that's what he said happens lol he was asked directly about this multiple times including the rap radar joint with B Dot, and he gave people the answer. It just wasn't the answer people were hoping for tbh lol

I think the reality is that he writes is on s*** for the most part and is constantly listening to Demo's, ideas, etc. that he uses to influence where he's trying to take a record, and depending on where the record goes, he uses x amount of material from the demo. This answer is a lot less sensationalized, but it's 'probably' what goes on.

lol his writing style set the tone for an entire generation of ig captions and simp tweets. That’s influence.

His rapping ability is subpar
