If you don't write your own lyrics you're NOT an MC.

As a matter of fact there needs to be a new category for cats who don't write. :mjpls:

And people need to start naming names. If a nikka comfortable with other people/artists seeing that don't write shyt then they shouldn't be mad if someone speaks on it.

so this is just another attempt to cover up the fact that drake ain't an mc? :dame:

an mc is suppose to write his own shyt. that's like an unwritten law in hip hop :martin:

now does an mc get ideas and concepts from nikkas who in his camp or crew from time to time? yeah, who doesn't. nobody does shyt all by themselves all the time however a nikka can't claim to be an mc and have another nikkas writin' his shyt and he sayin' he an mc and this and that, naw nikka.

puffy is not an mc, (nor is kanye for that matter if he's since he's had a fair share of muthafukkas write more than a couple of songs for him and i know rhymefest, consquence, big sean, cudi and a few others have helped him out over the years)

when i think of an mc, i think of guys like rakim, nas, gza, ice cube, scarface, redman, slick rick, mos def, kool g rap, common, 2pac, biggie, outkast....

but who really gives a fukk in 2015? we ain't got no new great shyt comin' out no more aside from kendrick (last of the mohicans) so arguin' over some shyt like this is pointless now. it ain't like drake is some great let alone good rapper (the nikka is trash). when the shyt came out with him havin' a ghostwriter i was more surprised that nikkas actually thought of him as some mc or lyricist. i didn't know he was viewed as such. he was always like a pop act to me. but the way people gas drake up and act like he's been the best thing slice bread is funny as hell to me :laff:

There's plenty of great shyt coming out.
And there are definitely hundreds if not thousands of rappers who
care about penning their own lyrics.

And Tyrese isn't Hip Hop and frankly he should put whoever he was talking about
on blast. I might just have to check his rap features and see who he could potentially be
talking about.

i wrote a couple joints for Tyrese.
Busta Rhymes, Jim Jones, Ray J, TQ, Baby Bash, Chingo Bling, Lil Flip, Frayser Boy, one of the Eastside Boys, Jackie O can attest to this.
