Jaguar Wright on IG goes off about The Roots and Malik B

[get these nets]

Nah, Sis is having a public breakdown. Or a catharthis.
It's all coming out. She's airing herself out the entire time also.

She had 3 close friends die in the last week. This is part of her grieving process.
The Roots never sold a lot of records, they earned their living as a touring band. People who spend that much time together know each other very well.

Having said that.

Same night, same fight concert\but one of these dudes ain't livin right (I'll let you tell it)

Met Common at Wetlands in NYC..at a Roots jam...he had on a dashiki and carrying a Heineken...just like I pictured him....girl I was with was not American and had no idea who he was..he tried to lowkey crack on her

Met Questlove in Germany of all places with the same girl from the Common story..again she had NO idea who he was..he's really phony ......very lumpy dude at the time

Yeah even IF he gave Thought a single bar there is no way Dice is jeopardizing/admitting to any of that.

Not true. Because Dice Raw knows giving a single bar is not ghostwriting. People don’t know wtf ghostwriting in hip hop actually is. And that’s where the problem lies.

 

[TezMilli]

Ain't nothing scorned about anything she's saying. She been holding back for years obviously and found the time to let off on these nikkas

Everything she's saying is all facts!!!

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Aye, so this nikka Common all of a sudden is dating Tiffany Hadish publicly?

Lemme find out this nikka tryna escape the Lil Half Dead allegations

Common is such a clown

Of course it isnt. But Dice still wouldn't put himself in that avenue of giving Thought anything pen wise.

True ghostwriters dont talk anyway.

Black thought is considered one of the best writers in the game by every top tier MC in the game. If there was even a whiff of dude having ghostwriters that shyt woulda came out a long time ago. He's worked with tons of artists in the industry. It's comedy how y'all are always trashing these gossiping ass ho's. Now one of these ho's comes out rambling and having a nervous breakdown and all of you eat that shyt up.

I mean this bytch trying to trash commons failed relationships when she admittedly cheated on her husband with talib who she turned around and called a creep.....it's pretty damn obvious she's having a meltdown. There's a reason all of the artists she mentioned are still cool with eachother and she's all by herself and miserable. The bytch prolly been crazy for years. The fact that y'all are actually giving this bullshyt the time of day and the mods even upped this shyt is pathetic. The coli is fukkin trash now

I dont believe Thought had or has a ghostwriter, for the record. Ive been following them since Organix. Im mainly defending Dice and his skills. Its not unbelievable he could be a ghostwriter (in general) given his catalog of work, and if he was I wouldn't expect him to say so.

Again, not saying Thought had any ghostwriters . I was just speaking on his certified pedigree earlier in the thread.

Ive been around a few of these conscious cats, off the mic these breh's are different. I can separate that from the music though/can care less.

Playing devils advocate here but I swear Quentin Miller did the same thing initially.

Still makes no sense as there was rumblings that Drake had ghostwriters years before the QM situation. On social media, message boards, etc.

I remember people on KTT asking "who is Anthony Palman?" because he had writing credits on every rap song on two Drake albums. Think it was "NWTS" and "Take Care".

Come to find out years later it was Hush. And then on top of that and the QM situation Nickeleus F. admitted he wrote an un-credited verse for Drake. Then you got other stuff like the Shi Wisdom rumors, etc.

Compare that to Black Thought who has never had even a single accusation of using ghostwriters and it's apples and oranges.

Her ex-husband (Sam) was abusive and she believes he tampered with her meds and tried to kill her. Claims she was unconscious for over 24 hours and when she came to she could barely talk and her throat was fukked up and was wondering wtf was happening. Her ex-husband told her he found her on the bathroom floor in a pool of blood and throw up. And he just cleaned her up and put her in the bed. She was wondering why he ain't call the ambulance and get her medical attention and he said he was afraid if he did they'd think he did something to her. Two weeks later she found out he upped the life insurance policy on her. Apparently members of The Roots know this and they still fukk with him and by discounted Ralph Lauren clothes from him.

Her ex-husband was a tranny chaser and in gay sex clubs and he worked out at a gay gym on 12th street

Does she come across sane to you?

I don't wanna just write her off as crazy but I'm asking you for your opinion.

I wrote earlier in the thread that Dice is still a hungry MC, still in ciphers, still really in the underground. The Roots tv gig gave them financial stability where they don't have to tour and be in that circuit.
Dice being in their recording sessions brings that energy to the studio, and it gives them a way to look out for him. Would you doubt that something he said or wrote ended up on a Roots record that he wasn't credited for? Would you doubt that he brags privately when his lines or ideas make it to a Roots album? How do you think this ghostwriting idea about him popped into Jay's mind?

She took a stray side comment from Dice and put extras on it, but it's not as far fetched as you think.

Girl was getting ran through by woke nyggas.. lol

He did? Where can I read or see him address her on that?
