again different levels she might be presented with a track that has single chorus or bridge and then she does the rest, not like beyonce or rihanna where they're presented with the entire song. again this isn't a one size fits all shoe, people used these tools in the way they want to. i literally just came back from a writing camp. again im not saying they had the whole song written for them but usually they might be presented with a track that already has chorus or bridge and they do the rest
@Ziggiy you from atlanta right? you know how many writing camps qc has done, fukk is you talking about :dahell:

most these nikkas have someone writing their hooks, they pen their own verses but most can't write a catchy hook for shyt but im talking about TOP level acts not your b list level or c list level act

edit: or maybe ya'll get stuck on the semantics of the word ghost writer and co-writer so how about this, every major act has used a 3rd party writer knowingly and unknowingly
When we talk MCs, we're talking about bars. We DGAF about hooks. We want to know who isn't writing their own rhymes.

Having ghostwriters will never be accepted. At least Cole writes his shyt. Still looks bad to apologize but it's warranted with Cole since he's not the type to really go at anyone unless someone tested him.

That's the problem. Ghostwriting is a practice that was accepted in Hip Hop before Drake. Either people have selective memrories, are selective about who can and can't have them, or both.

Then whoever has ghostwriters will never be considered the best. No matter if they sold a lot of albums. And yea, I see a lot of selective picking on who’s the best.

In regard to being selective, I was speaking about ghostwriting. Of course, any debate on who is the best is selective by default. With ghostwriting, people make exceptions not knowing that it shreds any credibility from any argument regarding ghostwriting not being accepted.

@JoelB come here you incompetent savage

You told yourself the general consensus was Cole was losing fans and support by the droves. That it wasn't your biased twitter feed that was critical of him.

They ran that man's numbers up to highest they've ever been on the platform :mjlol:wow



Intellect and Substantiation >>>> Savagery


How embarrassing.....yet again

:francis:


how did I miss my favorite dodo brain poster :russ:



He kept that trash diss record on his album (which he said he didnt believe in) just to underperform and miss his projections by a wide margin. Thats his lowest solo charting album since he came out :wow: Now that his diss record is removed, let's pay attention to his week 2 numbers.

Since you believe that apology was great for his career :mjgrin:

Cole was never the confrontational type, Drake is a put together artist that is now using aggression in his music from the company he keeps around. He's now using gang slangs saying ''Bity'' in his raps :snoop: :dead:

LMAO at "missed" my post was from last week that tweet you're quoting is from yesterday i.e. you ain't "missed" shyt but a brain brother. You've been scrounging for a retort for a week and finally thought you found something... yet you still humiliate yourself :mjlol:

This is what happens when you're a low intellect savage... Your brain doesn't work quick enough to produce competent replies and you end up babbling nonsense like the gibberish above

As I said... You told yourself the general consensus was Cole was losing fans and support by the droves. That it wasn't your biased twitter feed that was critical of him.




YET they RAN that man's numbers up to highest they've ever been on the platform across his entire catalog on the site not just one album.... Do I have to bang some rocks around for that to resonate to you? :mjlol:wow
