I mean it was a D12 song.




We all know that, I’m talking about the lyrics. You think 50 didn’t write “In Da Club”?

This shhit is awful, lmfao. This is excellent evidence for why 50 is a great songwriter…look what he turned this song/beat into versus this swamp water D12 created

Only thing i heard was Banks helping with the Hook :manny:It's just odd to hear Proof on the hook basically rapping the same thing as the final version. It's like Dre likes when a certain formula when his production is made with these songs.

Depends how you define song writer.

Lyrically? The discussion is disrespectful to Jay. His laziest bars will outshine 5th.

Hooks, melodies, tones, catchiness, earworms, more prone to be a hit single even if its trash? Then its 50.

Ghostwriting bars for others? The discussion is disrespectful to Jay.

Lines youll remember decades from now? Jay


So what are the parameters for "song writer"? However you define. it Jay is waaay better st 90 percent of it lol.

Maaan,if yall think 50 is a better songwriter than Jay, I dont ever want to hear any arguments that Pac aint better than Nas and Jay:mjlol:



Because Pac is lightyears beyond 50 as a song writer. But if you bring up his songwriting,folks will be quick to bring up technical lyricism in Nas and Jays song writing. So how come now we wanna disregard the fact that Jay is a hundred times better than 50 at rapping(technical lyricism):comeon:?
