Wait...So Roscoe Dash is a go-to ghostwriter ?

I've caught some of this while watching interviews. A lot of times these cats just right songs not intended for anyone in particular and it just gets shopped and passed around. I believe that's what Yung Berg does. For example K. Michelle had a song that was supposed to be on her last album called buy a heart ft Meek Mill. She decided not to use the song but she named her album the same title as the song (Do You Want to Buy A Heart). The song then ended up on Nickis albumMy thing with the Game and J.Cole situation. What's the point? None of those songs were singles or anything of significance really.
I missed it, I was looking at two different credits and got confused.
Why'd you skip over Roscoe Dash and highlight Walker Johnson? Roscoe gon list himself twice on the same song ?
That one is from the album and doesn't feature Roscoe, the other one is from the awards.
Ascap awards
Walker Johnson is that Tre dude, that Miguel claimed wrote the first part of the hook but obviously Roscoe wrote the first half or perhaps a few words of the first half.
Also that ASCAP thing seems weird cause it's not labelling people Drake, J. Cole, Lil Wayne or Jeezy as writers of their own songs.

I'm pretty sure everyone knows about Skeme and the work hes done with Iggy.. He writes a LOT of her shyt including Fancy
Bobby Brackins writes for Tinashe, Chris Brown and a bunch of other pop acts.. dude wrote Loyal, too on etc.
Berg actually came into the game writing for Eve, DMX (shocking aint it?) and other Ruff Ryder cats.. most recently hes written for Wayne, Nicki Minaj (wrote like 3 records on that Pinkprint shyt) Rihanna, etc. wrote Diamonds for Fabolous
and like dude up top guessed, Stat works with Game a lot.. Its mostly hook work though which is or used to be dudes weakness. Nobody noticed how hes suddenly improved? Speakin of Game.. Ill just throw it out there, J. Cole wrote Games verses for the song Pray w/ JMSN... Im actually not entirely sure if it was ever even intended to be a Game song at all when it was originally recorded.. Cole ended up reusing bars he wrote for that ..I'm surprised nobody ever noticed..
"She ride or die like Eve and them, make home cooked meals every evening" - Game on Pray
"She ride or die like Eve and them, make home cooked meals every evening" - J. Cole on Runaway
on top of that, J. Cole wrote Games verses on Drug Test from the Red Album.. dont believe me? anyone with the album booklet, go look at credits.. tell me what you see
its actually pretty obvious listening to it that J. Cole is Game and Dre is Kendrick Lamar on this.. listen to the flow and delivery lol. Game don't rap like that
Did Cole write "Made In America" (or parts of it) for Game also. He kind of sounds like Cole on that one too.

shyts hilarious because Berg seems like that one dude that just wont got away..
he catches the beats, gets robbed... yet every time you look up, there he is. still eating.. and its like HOW??
but then you remove the cloak and it all makes sense.. spooky brehs..
I actually like Game a lot too but its no question, dude has writers.. somebody tweet him if Earl Hayes (dude who killed himself and his baby moms) ever helped him pen anything, see what he says..

Smh that's a damn shame I'll stop fukkin wit a rapper if they don't write they own shyt that's lame to me and game can spit why otha people writing his shyt?
He obviously wrote the hook for "Up all night"
Nas and Jay have had writers
You ain't gon have anyone to listen to.
Everyone has had some type of assistance from someone
didn't they start a label together?
