Ghostwritten songs we know about

[satam55]

if we doing pop/R&B

What's the point? Most R&B & Pop acts don't write their own music.

Why are we cons

i wouldn't considering these ghostwriting...

but lets switch sides and dig into the dream & rico love's writing catalogs

Its not ghostwriting. I don't know why we consider R & B/POP in these discussions. Curtis Mayfield didn't ghostwrite "Let's Do It Again." Issac Hayes didn't ghostwrite "Soul Man." They just wrote the song. Ne-Yo, The Dream, received credit for their writing. No ghosts here.

Now I can't get "Promithes, Promithes" in Cam's voice out of my head.

LL Cool J wrote songs for RUN DMC, when they were HOT. I know for sure he wrote "Can You Rock it Like This"

Diddy - Come to me (Royce) or was it Tell me?

Tell Me.. U can hear Diddy using/copying Royce's delivery on it too.

Always found it a bit odd that Dr. Dre would have Royce write verses about DRE'S dead brother.

I think Royce explained it in an interview... his cousin or homie had just died too so that's why it was personal. Dre just made him change/changed some of the lines so it was more accurate for Dre.



oh &
Crooked I supposedly wrote bunch of songs on Left Eye's Death Row album that was never released



^^ u can pretty much tell it on this song if you're familiar with Crook's Death Row material. the way he ends his verse is kinda a hint too.

"I'ma live to show, I'm makin the west coast tighter,
I'm Crooked I, your ghostwriters ghostwriter" ...

kinda thought it might've been a subliminal shot @ Snoop too. Since some LBC rappers supposedly wrote for Snoop during that time.

Oh & about ghostwriting/Snoop...if that wasn't a shot, his line on "Death Rizzo" definitely was:

"You can't hit Crooked I; you sound dope
Cause them nikkas that wrote your shyt... bit Crooked I"
