Bro I’m not tryna hear this s*** until we have concrete evidence of him getting raps written for him. Like actual verses

“finished songs” “as long as they write the verses”

so basically, hooks with open verses?

playboi carti

The rule was always about verses. Y’all are tryna shift the rules cause ya boy got caught sharing bars like he got the bottom bunk in a two man cell

Exactly. Alright was an anthem because of the beat and hook. Which were 100% finished by Pharrell and another writer before Kendrick ever heard the song. So he does get help even if its not for verses

Drake forgiving Meek Mill is proof he really is a better man tbh.

Meek Mill may have lost the battle but he really did leave a permanent if now minor stain on drake’s pedigree.

I dont care about a made up rule. All the legends like snoop, ice cube and nas used writers before. tupac fished a verse out of the trashcan and used it. only rule that matters is good music

its just trolls still giving him s*** for him still. none of the legends said anything cause they know how it works

Carti freestyled a whole career.

a GOAT career

Eh, kendrick was giving him heat all throughout tpab for it lol

Ok but we’re talking about Goatdrick never using ghost writers. So them other guys are irrelevant to the discussion

I walk in godly form amongst the mortal men

Niggas that dont do music not understanding what “getting help” means lmfao.

There’s a reason Kanye has so many writing credits and it’s not as simple as “oh, he dont write”

Literally if you help out with a cadence or a flow for a rapper, you technically could get credited for that.

That is in essence helping out a rapper.

Nicki

pardi

A lot of kanyes writing credits especially on MBDTF come from samples

It’s only from TLOP on that he had a f*** ton of writers

Undeniable Excellence.

Think ab soul said that in an interview

And Q was hella open bout his peers making him do different versions of trash talk or something

Wayne Nicki Drake

well yea no one’s denying that. isn’t thread about ghost writers though?

But even on mbdtf when there was that whole exposé on the writing process, he would have verses and ask his peers what they thought of em lol

That’s collaboration. That’s not the same as literally getting verses or bits of verses from other niggas and then claiming you wrote everything yourself

2 out of 3.
And that’s only cause Nicki definitely comes off as a “it’s my way or no way” type lol
