No Kanye does the same shyt. He has whole rhymes written for him as well. I been tellin nikkas bout that nikka for the longest. shyt like Jesus Walks was a whole song he took from Rhymefest.

Sicin' it
he writes his own shyt
if he didn't don't you think he'd get dudes to make him a great lyricist rather than a good and sometimes really good 1

he gets slight help
nothing like whole verses and shyt
especially not back in the day

also HE'S A PRODUCER

so at least he's doin somethin

That's currently
and they are all usually on the album (besides Yeezus)
also Kanye produces, Drake doesn't

Ye has a whole bunch of guest on his shyt
Drake doesn't

Kanye never says he does it by himself, and the people are credited

Drake's aren't and he keeps trying to hide it

ALSO

Kanye doesn't have nikkas in rooms writing his shyt for him
if he get's help it's a line or 2

Main Point is Ye produces and only has a whole bunch of dudes with him now, not back in the 2000s
and Ye has already dropped 2 classics and 2 other good-great albums in his first 10

Drake's best is simply "good" and he's been in the game for like 6 years on an album level and already needs dudes to write his stuff
I was in the same studio where a MBDTF session was being done at in ATL. Kanye got nikkas in rooms B.

Bro. He doesn't write his shyt. Lol. I'm telling u. This is why he started hiding behind that "great artist" statement rather than tryna push that he's a great emcee like he used to try to do. Son. Like I said.
Go to 2:30 of this video.

Conscious Kanye was Rhymefest and Consequence. Mixed wit some Common as well. Celebrity Ye he took Cudi. Big Sean. Cyhi the Prince. Etc.

Kanye does have nikkas in rooms and he's a fraud for that, too. But that doesn't deflect from what the 6 fraud is doing, either :manny:

A whole lot of deflection going on right now :scust:

I was in the same studio where a MBDTF session was being done at in ATL. Kanye got nikkas in rooms B.

There's an old interview where Nicki talks about how Kanye flew her and all these other rappers/producers/songwriters out to a compound (in Hawaii? I think :jbhmm:) to create MBDTF. He literally had them in rooms writing and recording their parts separately then they sent their portions to him and he 'put the songs together :upsetfavre:' and added *his* own verses. Which is how you have songs like 'All Of The Lights' with eight nikkas on them :mjlol:

I remember watching the interview like :ohhh:

I stopped fukking with Ye THEN, and I started referring to his music as Frankenstein music because it's all stitched together with no soul and most of the parts came from somewhere else :manny:

But y'all are lying to yourselves if you believe EVERY rap artist does this :stopitslime: every artist doesn't even have the money to do this

And I agree with the point that Kanye's first few albums obviously did not have TEAMS of writers and producers (no one even believed in Ye that much) so it's not a fair comparison

And I agree Kanye's first three albums are not eligible for this conversation because he executive produced them. :camby:

Its funny and sad that some of you hiphop heads have no idea how the music industry works especially at the highest level.


If you think any mega pop or rap star is penning and writing and hand choosing all of there own stuff without a team your sadly mistaken.

You start out doing that, just like any job and you progress to the point where you have a team and a business. Those that don't fade into obscurity, those that do become iconic

So who is writing for Hov and Nas in 2016?
