so is it acceptable or nah? 
Nothing wrong with ghostwriters, even Mad had em. It's when your whole label is writing for you and you contribute nothing. The Drakes of the world

If it ain't any of the tracks on Adrenaline Rush, or the Po Pimp tracks, I really don't care.

Guarantee it was later in his career.
Y'all really don't understand what goes on. Damn near all of the popular mainstream artists today outsource their lyric writing. They're just performers.
Back in the day, if you were considered a real MC it was sacrilege to not write your own rhymes. At the same time, ghost writing has been going on forever.
DOC wrote for Dre, Eazy, Snoop, probably a lot of others. Biggie wrote for Kim. It's nothing new.
Twists was a beast in his prime, guarantee he was writing his stuff early on at least through Kamikaze. As these guys get older and established they get lazy and start outsourcing.
But it's commonplace for mainstream rappers today to outsource. A lot of labels employee a pool of writers and producers that their artists are required to use. That's why you'll see 12 writers credited on one track when you look at the liner notes.

I think the most important question is, when were ghostwriter's used?
Because if this was during the Adrenaline Rush through Kamikaze era then.
If it was post Kamikaze to AR 2007 then it would make sense since I always felt that something was off during that period.
I'd almost guarantee it was after Kamikaze.
