Fake outrage imo. I never see anyone having an issue with the image 180 that he did. His material sounded good, so people rolled with it. Why make a big deal outta him having a couple songs written for him over a 24 year recording career?


Get real,...
He caught all types of flack culturally in Chicago..
Which in turn made him go deeper into a street realm he really was not familiar with at all and that is where the permeation of what really happened is lost.
He had to seek refuge in a realm streetwise in Chicago and use a large volume of new fans to squelch out the real fans who was with this nikka every week at chi-rock meetings.
He turned his back on the nikkaz who helped save his draw to be able to do that after being dissed into oblivion by del and beatnuts.
Yet, all that is never spoke of because twista sacrificed the culture for pop relevancy.
It worked and in the wake of the crucial with fab5 and do or die shyt.
When he got caught up in his admin limbo like crucial.
Nobody felt sorry for grassroots wise as a fan.
His resource group is what pulled him out and his resource group also gave us the cultural scourges unbeknownst to them at the time as well.
The corporate admin limbo he got put in.
to a bidding war with badboy/rocafella.
To, arista like fukk that,...he is our artist.
we used you slight of hand corporate tricknology/litigation trick and mind meld that took place.
Plus the cover up of any issues on a grassroots level with parties who aided him in those periods.
So, there is a lot that was covered up and after the fact.
fans who are rabid will protect their interest in twista again like before.
Yet, and still it still does not negate the fact it did occur.
It just depends on the content and how it is taken by people who care to know the real.

So are yall going to drag Twista through the mud like Drake or are yall going to be selective with your outrage :sas2:


Like I said before in the Drake threads, having ghostwriters is common in hip-hop. I'm not saying everyone does it, but it's been happening for YEARS.

U said all that but are u saying this will hurt Twista in anyway? I mentioned Wu, Nas, Drake and Dre to prove a point that all that ghostwriting sh*t doesnt mean anything. Are u saying that besides it being news to the fanatics that it will hurt Twista?? Is that what u are trying to tell me??? I say it wont...are u saying that it will??

Breh you keep throwing the entire kitchen sink into the discussion. Comparing a bunch of shyt that isn't related, at all.

Wu and Nas/Cormega....them sharing lines among themselves as artists/peers isn't the same as Drake hiring guys to write songs, hooks, reference tracks, etc....then shelving their career, receiving praise from legends like Premiere for being nice lyrically....and not saying a god damn thing about "well actually, I didn't write this shyt".

The fact that your lumping Dre in with Wu is :what: as hell. I know you know better than that.

As far as "will this hurt Twista"....no, of course not. Look at Drake. But there's an obvious reason he waited until the ass end of his career to use ghost writers....there's an obvious reason he waited 25+ years to admit to using them. This shyt has never been accepted, until recently.
