The same reason why
Drake made it but not Nickelus F.
Nickelus F makes a lot better music, sings better, produces, etc....he's actually more valuable on a technical skill-based level.
Safaree is a cornball brother from BK who damn near sounds like a Toronto nikka...his corn level is too high for anybody to fukk with on the regular. That name and his previous associations also say the same. Plus, he's naturally a "background guy".
A lot of writers are lames....A lot of artists are lames...Together, they make somebody cool. Her without him? Not the same. Him without her? His business will be okay.
Ok so this is her without him .
Safe to say most guys only like her on features and never listen to her album right ?
What I'm saying is they were in a rap group so of course they sound alike no one cant deny that .
I'm sure dude probably gave her line and helps with flow .
Y'all tryna make it seem like he made her career which isn't the case .
What's wild is safaree really responsible for the hip hop beats .
What made nicki big wasn't that it's her pop features and songs .
The pop shyt really crossed her over to the next lane especially adding some singing .
But back to hip hop you gotta show me a hot safaree bar . Nicki isn't super bar heavy but she gives you some shyt at times . I've never heard a hot bar by him ever .
The thing with most ghost writers is they can't make songs but they can rap .
