    Cyhi ghostwrote it, end of story, it’s not that big a deal

    it’s ghostwriting when you’re a credited writer now

    It's still getting outside help to write a verse no matter how you frame it.

    damn can’t we all just learn to appreciate and recognize CyHi as one of the best hip hop writers of all time? tired of this ghost writing bullshit

  • Aug 17, 2020

    What if travis wrote that verse for cyhi to be featured but he was too ass to make the cut so travis did it himself

  • Aug 17, 2020

    For being music nerds y’all don’t understand how writing/writing credits or references work 🤦🏽‍♂️

  • Aug 17, 2020

    Travis Scott is the one rapper where news coming out that he has writers seems inconsequential (even though this was credited)

  • Aug 17, 2020
    nobody

    of course, random on twitter has more credibility than producer

    Do you think the producer's response would change if it was ghostwritten or not?

    Travis probably wrote most of it

    Then gets CyHi to record it to catch a flow and change lyrics that would sound better

    yup

    The ghostwriting vs. written credit semantics is so stupid because people's issue isn't that Cyhi is is or isn't uncredited, it's that someone is writing your verses almost word for word

    But Nineteen85 is saying that's completely false.

    Drake didn't tell Meek who contributed to his verse

    Then how did Meek find out?

  • Aug 18, 2020

    Then how did Meek find out?

    Through someone else hence the tweet "Drake's mad because we found out"

    People always bring this idea up and I guess it’s not an impossible idea but laying a reference to spark an idea always seems more likely to me than someone trying to take the artists words and put a flow to it. If you’ve written anything or read anything a friend wrote you know that reading someone else’s s*** without a reference point for rhythm and cadence is hard as hell, that’s the whole reason references exist. So the idea of Trav handing cyhi some words and asking for a flow is just bizarre to me since if you have the words you should be able to find a flow and most would assume Travis is better at flows than lyrics and even that flows/melodies are the main focus and the lyrics are just an afterthought. So why would they be building Travis Scott music around lyrics rather than naturally coming up with a flow? I just don’t see it

    Also when people put this idea forward it’s supposed to be in defense of the artist, like “oh Trav wrote the words Cyhi just helped with the flow no big deal” but flow isn’t a lesser component than lyrics especially in Travis music, as a fan I’d rather find out Trav didn’t write his bullshit words than find out he’s not responsible for the musical aspects that made him notable
