There’s actually a couple Rocky verses that I thought sounded ghost written :patrice:
Wouldn't surprise me, even the throw away joint Five Stars sounds like something Playboy Carti would write or he inspired Rocky for sure with that song.

What do you think may have been Ghost Written?

His verse on Purity, Brotha Man, and black tux, white collar.

I know Rocky mentioned how rappers don’t even have to be good at rapping, they just need good ghostwriters.
He even took a shot at people not writing they own raps in his bodega video.

So he might not have a ghostwriter, but he sounded out of his lane on those songs. Like someone might of been guiding him. Notice how those are all personal songs.

I could be wrong tho :yeshrug:

I agree man, I can see that for sure. I think it's possible he has been using some but who knows.

I figure in the least he is just hanging around different people and picking up some influence from their works but I doubt it.

He also took 69's uhhh on OG Beeper.

I really don’t think this album is terrible. Live. Love. A$AP is a classic, but I’ve never held Rocky to just that. Rocky’s always been experimental he just doesn’t always execute it right.
Nah this album is good. Just not for everybody :yeshrug:
