I personally would say only the writers portion, but for production end, did anyone else play on it? How much did the engineer contribute with the sequencing and really
bringing the beat alive? Ultimately it’s all intellectual property and often times a team effort, so I’d never be mad at any contributor feeing like they deserved a stake.

These threads are always painful to read knowing that the people speaking at length with certainty have absolutely no idea what the fukk they're talking about.

I look for every conceivable chance to hate on Beyoncé and even I think this is one hell of a reach

This.
I answered this in regard to rap business situations. Where it became common and held in the wrong regard in the new school way of thought.
The rap business in its inception from the mca way. Or ol school way of thought. Linked to corrosive art house practicea.
To add clarity.
to negative art house practices. In The new school way of thought in the rap industry.

That don't make what he did right because now for everybody that don't know better he made her the face of it.......
If you wrote 100% of the song you should be credited fully. Y'all act like the writer has the earning potential that Beyonce has.
Beyonce will make millions touring off those songs, merchandising, endorsements, etc. The writer has nothing but their credits. Not to mention there's no guarantees they're going to get placements. They're basically freelance workers.
Let's say for the year you get one Beyonce placement and you wrote 5 songs for other artists. 3 go unreleased and the other 2 don't make any noise. All you really have to eat off of is the 1 Beyonce song and she took 1/4 of that.
I'm sure everyone in here would have an issue if their check was shorted because a coworker got your money while not doing any of your work.
Beyonce is worth so much that she doesn't need to be taking from people who are mostly struggling. Stop strong arming these people and let them eat.
When I wrote my whole pop album, I had a joint that we reached out to pitbull to feature on when he was in his prime.
He wanted a $100k fee and 100% publishing.
We told him to kill himself.

Nikka what you think “ghostwriting” is
GHOSTWRITING APPLIES TO RAP
NOT R&B.
90% OF R&B SINGERS ALWAYS HAD WRITERS
AND THOSE WROTERS WERE ALWAYS CREDITED FOR WRITING THE SONG.
