She got sued for her debut album cause they tried to do the Prince thing and act like she was the one woman show but other people wrote/produced on that album

no, she was sued for production credit, not the raps she was rapping.. Writing credits are also categorized as writing the music.

under no circumstance were Wyclef's lyrics ever better than lauryn's. If he wrote lauryn's lyrics and kept the weaker ones for himself, he's fukin stupid. I'm not saying Wyclef is wack, but Lauryn's lyrics were a step better on many songs.
"writing" is a very nuanced thing though. We often over simplify it to mean all cases = someone wrote the rap and handed it over.

I smell a lawsuit coming. Clout chasing generation. No one wants to be behind the scenes anymore. Everyone knows Cardi has writers.

most female rappers from back in the day had writers too whether yall wanna come to grips with those harsh realities or not, ghostwriting is not a new phenomenon

You mean Foxx can recite raps other people wrote? :dahell:
This is the question I was asking in the post you quoted.
How do we know who wrote what?

You think foxy never wrote a rhyme before.
Those songs I mentioned, she killed them shyts.
Did Jay write that or did Nas.

I don't think it's cut and dry as they get everything written for them.

Muthafukaz is probably giving them hits or working on certain songs with them.

Either way, Foxy is nicer than Nikki and whoever writes for cardi makes her shyt harder sounded than Nikki's shyt

No she was sued for production credit and song writing credit. They claimed to be primary writers in several tracks

I can believe the song writing, but not the lyric writing. Yes, I believe that. I don't have problem with someone writing a song, but Lauryn aint had any ghostwriters for RAPS!!!!

He has adlibs and vocals on those songs.

🤦🏽‍♀️

yeah i feel like he actually is credited on songs... i dont feel like looking it up but i'm not sure what all the denial is about. everybody gets help writing songs. i guess the issue is to what extent and does the artist even care if everybody knows lol

You’re not getting it. Safaree gets royalties from those songs because he is talking shyt on those songs and doing adlibs, not because he wrote her verses.

he's credited on a lot of songs, with a lot of other people, not just those. and calm your t*ts, i never said he "wrote her verses". clearly he wrote for her, it could have been an adlib, a line, told her "say it like this not like that" etc. you don't know either. and the same could be said for cardi
