So Allegedly NaS Had A Ghostwriter(s) *Most Likely A False Accusation*

[Last Dayze]

the most ironic thing eye took from the whole thing is that didn't Jay Electronica allegedly steal his rhymes too..what happened with that whole saga..?

 

[L. Deezy]

Defamation of character because he accused a musician of not writing his lyrics...are you serious

thats how much of a legend he is.. would we actually care if 50 had a ghostwriter and he denied it?

 

[spliz]

Wow, is this real?

What's wrong with what he wrote?..they collabed for sly fox and Stic Man gave him a few beats...they also bounced concepts around...this was been known...he ain't ghostwriter nothin for Nas...

 

[Piff Perkins]

I'd imagine Jay Elec wrote shyt on Untitled. He was in the studio producing, and no doubt bounced ideas around with Nas. This shyt happens all the time: dudes are in the studio, lines are passed around, someone says "ayo you know what would sound hotter?" etc etc etc. That's not "ghostwriting" it's called collaborating. If it was good enough for John Lennon and Paul McCarthy to do, it should be good enough for Nas and Jay Elec to do

less than 24 hrs is all it took for this shyt to die. nikkas need to go see Dream at her crib and body that bytch.

Nas the Don

 

[The Message]

If you peep game, Dream Hampton threw out a red herring, a smoke screen. She gave a very weak response as to why Jay cant make a record like Untitled. Instead she diverted the attention to Nas on some hate sh*t, in which her "claim" had nothing to do with the question. haha

Do we know that's true? He was in the studio playing Nas tracks, Nas played him some tracks. It's not unlikely to assume Jay threw some lines at Nas and vise versa. And like I said, ain't nothing wrong with that.

It sounds like the Untitled studio session was the last time Jay Elec did any work on music

Reading thru her timeline heres what I gather:

1. She was responding to Harry Belefonte's criticism of Jay Z for not using his fame to be an activists

2. A fan asks why can't Jay put out something like Nas-Untitled, the point she was trying to make is "that doesn't count becuz Stic Man and Jay E wrote all the radical/political stuff". Basically Jay Z writes what he feels and Nas uses other peoples ideas. Then says shes not impressed by "Daughters" either (kinda implying that somebody might have wrote that for Nas too). But she liked Distant Relatives (without mentioning how much of that album was ghostwritten).

3. Then that weirdo uses the Dream Hampton tweets as an excuse to writes his trash blog post about a phone call he got at Hot 97 from Jay Electronica himself. And obviously the guy didn't ask any follow up questions...he just started crying.

4. Hours Later Dream Hampton says she heard 6 reference tracks.

Basically Dream Hampton set this off basically to take credit from Nas for doing that album. Her point is "Don't criticize Jay becuz no else is any better". So she may not have a reason to outright "lie" but she is spinning the truth to boost Jay by discrediting Nas...just like we do here on SOHH/The Coli.

the bytch did it so nice, I have no choice but to believe she posts on here or browse this site. Her troll game was impeccable.

This is what I don't get, her throwing Nas under the bus had absolutely nothing to do with the initial question she was asked. Truely a red herring if there ever was one. There was a million responses she could have gave as to why Jay hasn't done an album like, Untitled, yet she chose to shyt on Nas.

By the way, that shyt has caught on fire online. If she was looking for publicity, she got it.

I never said they never shared ideas...or Jay ain't tell some shyt like.."oh this shyt would sound iller if u said it like this.."...I'm talkin bout GHOSTWRITING..reference tracks...meaining the ghostwriter spits the verses and the artists learns it and spits it over...impossible..Nas is way too hands on for that...and that what that bytch was tryna accuse him of...broad was tryna defame his character...

 

[Monoblock]

This is all I needed to hear in order to dead this ridiculous claim.



Anything from Dream Hampton is automatically deemed suspect. That bytch been a Jay groupie for a minute.

Dream Hampton is also a biased writer who wrote the review for "Blueprint" in Vibe, and tried to speak out both sides of her mouth by saying Jay took Prodigy and Nas out to the woodshed in "Takeover," but then stating that she didn't want to incite anymore violence so she'd drop speaking on it, and made this supposedly her last hip-hop review.

She also co-wrote Decoded with Jay, has been known to write ridiculous larger-than-life pieces and stories about her interview subjects (D'Angelo, Tupac, Jay-Z), while gently dissing their contemporaries in order to separate them from these figures.

She's also had claims that she fukked D'Angelo, and Jay, and has been deeply criticized for her writing so much on Okayplayer, that her friend Questlove had to come in and defend her.

If we're going to speak on her accomplishments, let's talk about all the (justified, IMO) criticism of hers as well, ESPECIALLY as it pertains to this.

As far as Frank goes, I remember a few "Nas lost" posts from him in the early 00s, that's not to say that he didnt grow out of it. But once again, this doesn't necessarily mean that stic.man and Jay Elect sat down and wrote Nas verses.

Pretty much
