so far erybody has been just using the long ass "composer credits" from iTunes with all the real government names, & that shyt was hard to tell who mighta did what -- some being sampled artists, some ghostwriters, some producers, some being random dudes in the room far as I can tell, & didnt even credit Travi$ Scott, Arca, & a bunch of other contributors.

Kanye actually posted the full credits HERE:
credits.jpg

Translations (with assist from Boxden):
Cydel Young = CyHi, ghostwrote on 9 songs, erything except 'Send It Up'
Malik Jones = Malik Yusef, ghostwrote on 8 songs, erything except 'Guilt Trip' & 'Send It Up'
Derrick Watkins = Fonzworth Bentley, ghosted on 4 songs
Che Smith= Rhymefest, ghosted on 4 songs
Wasalu Jaco = Lupe Fiasco, ghostwrote 1 song
Ab-Liva = surprised they didn't use his real name Rennard East, ghostwrote 1 song
Jeffrey Campbell = Assassin, dancehall artist on 'Im In It'
Sakiya Sandifer = writer & author, started the ThinkMovement, listed on 5 songs, assumedly for ghostwriting
Elon Rutberg = filmmaker from the Cruel Summer short film, not sure what his role here was, but he's credited on every song except for 2
Che Pope = Co-Executive Producer & produced on 2 of the tracks, also an A&R for GOOD Music, used to produce with Dr. Dre as Che Vicious
Tyree Pittman = Young Chop
Louis Johnson= King Louie
Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo & Thomas Bangalter = Daft Punk
Ross Birchard = Hudson Mohawke
Christopher Breaux = Frank Ocean
Scott Mescudi = Kid Cudi
Keith Cozart = Chief Keef
John Stephens = John Legend, wrote Charlie Wilson's lil part on Bound
Justin Vernon = singer from Bon Iver, sings on 3 tracks
everybody else is sampled artists or their copyright holders far as I can tell



but since that was only available as a dense ass image, & since it was a biiiiiitch to type all that shyt out myself, & since it still kinda buried the ghostwriters credits I figured I'd post what I tagged my shyt as, so yall can properly tag your shyt easier.

:dead: at ghostwriters. If it's credited, it's not ghostwriting.

semantics. if it's a rapper not writing his own lyrics, we finna call that shyt ghostwriting :stopitslime:
annoyin ass grammar cops -- you finna correct me for callin some weed loud? or you finna hit the shyt & pass, doggie



& regardless, especially if its buried in some confusing ass credits with 5 billion other government names, & even then that lil bit of credit isn't even printed with the physical CDs, but just buried in a hard to read .jpg hidden on his website.

I get your point, but it ain't ghostwriting. I understand the sentiment though especially when it comes to rap.
