While rappers like Drake have had their career and reputation tarnished by fans not giving him the credit he feels he deserves, other artists like Kanye remain to be praised regardless of never really penning his rhymes in the first place. So what happens after an artist gets EXPOSED for this cardinal sin in rapping? We find out today...

    Drake 100% doesn’t write all his own raps. His lyricism is too inconsistent. He doesn’t have a ghostwriter, he has multiple ghostwriters and changes them often.

      Hiring writers/producers/ image consultants will likely enhance the quality of your product translating into higher market presence.

      It's stupid to ATTEMPT to do everything yourself just to get 'street cred".

He's a killer, but ran from smoke when TI's boys peed on him and Diddy slapped fire outchea. I liked him better when he was just doing him.

    Knew Kanye would be here soon as I saw the title. One example that stands out to me is when T Pain told a story of how he was helping with Watch the Throne, and he was working on his own rap mixtape. And the story starts just like practically every Kanye story, "Kanye West wants to me? Kanye West?! Word. Say less". So he goes to his studio, works with him, lets him listen to his mixtape. Pain spits a lyric, Kanye tells him that the lyric was corny and that he shouldnt use it, then goes and uses the lyric in his own song. Basically saying dont say that cause i want to now

      @@chilli-boi we all have to crawl before we walk. Nobody is a great rapper at first you develop your style. If you have a ghost writer, to make it famous your not an artist. Your a face that sells, a voice maybe. Not talent, not skill, not even paying dues. Then you become a blueprint for the next guy...then we have music w no substance, no good content, mostly beats n rhymes a 4 year old can spit. Its not evolving into something better but destroying what was being built.

She actually said ''to figure out what's considered bars, what's considered metaphors". So she went from not even knowing what metaphors are to actually writing quite decent bars? That's like going from having to figure out what a C major chord is to next year performing sold out piano concerts.
      Let alone the fact that no actual writer would even talk like that -- that's what a fan would say about bars, not what rappers say about bars. I don't mind her not writing her own stuff though, it's kind of industry standard anyways -- as long as it's understood that she's a (pretty good) performer.
