Miguel Says Roscoe Dash Claims Of Writing "Lotus Flower Bomb" Are "Retarted" | Hip-Hop Wired

Roscoe Dash has spent most of the day on Twitter complaining about not receiving proper credit on records like "To The World" on Cruel Summer and "Lotus Flower Bomb" on Ambition. He recently tweeted that he wrote the hook on Wale's #1 song, which eventually was sung by Miguel. Well the "Adorn" singer recently spoke to Complex and says that that simply isn't the case.
"As far as I know, Wale and another artist that I recently met penned the original 'Lotus Flower Bomb' chorus and I came in and added the second half or the end part...I'm not going to explain myself, this is retarded," Miguel told Lauren Nostro .
"I don't know anything about Roscoe Dash. At the end of the day, I know my involvement in the song and as far as I know, Wale and I, and this other guy, wrote the chorus. The other guy was an alternative artist. If he wrote a part of it, he should get credit for it, but as far as I know, the people who deserve credit on the song are listed. Twitter is not the place to handle business."

To The World has like 11 people in the credits, lol @ this guy wanting some love for an ad lib

Miguel summed it up perfectly, do not air out business on twitter. you just pissed off a superstar and another pretty big name in Wale. key parts of the 2 biggest crews in hip hop right now. brilliant

labels finna start banning artist from twitter... it might not be worth the promotion

I think so. Or have someone else tweet for these dudes... rappers have always said and done dumb shyt... but now they do it on the regular for everyone to see. At the same time... some folks feel that ANY publicity is good publicity. That is not the case for everyone.

DJ Ill Will was saying roscoe dash stole Kid Inks demo track for his album lol.

but all in all, this is why you keep it business when dealing with industry people, just because they smile in your face, don't mean you can trust them to cut you what your owed when the time is right.

Would this have happened if he had never dropped his manager/gangster homie?

UPDATE: Roscoe adds more clarification via Twitter

@RoscoeDash: And as far as @KanyeWest “To The World” if u listen close my adlibs are STILL in the song
“However the record went #1 & I wasnt credited”
“After getting off the phone with @wale I feel like I need to clarify I WROTE THE HOOK for “lotus flowerbomb” not his verses”
:stopitslime: he's having a cry about fukking adlibs? pretty sure the adlibs didn't make the song go #1 breh

The hook is the most important aspect of the song.

Of a hip hop song?..that's the type of thinkin that got nikkas writin like shyt right now...people write hooks all the time..its what u do wit that shyt as an artist that's important...now if Wale was some souljah boy type ABC rapper that totally relied on the hook and beat it would be a different story...
