Because this is hip hop and thats against the rules.If you're just a casual listener than thats cool but understand the culture.

fam i feel you, i'm from NY myself so i'm surrounded by Hip Hop culture no matter what. the thing is that nikkas really expect motherfukkers like Drake to write his shyt when in 2015, most young nikkas don't care about bars and who writes them.

If you don't care, you don't care :ld:

It's kinda like steroids in sports

Some people feel like they are cheating the game, others don't care as long they are hitting home runs and winning and it's entertaining.....

My thing is if you do it, own up to it. Isn't that at least fair? Don't get mad at someone saying you have ghostwriter if you actually have a ghostwriter.

...and yet you can't understand the concept of authenticity with artistry?

Understand that if Jay or Jada didn't write their own lyrics then you are not a Jay or Jada fan, you are a fan of the man who wrote for them. Would that cause you to reflect on what there is to like about them? Use common sense breh.

honestly breh yes i understand the concept but why try to fight the fact that rappers are going to get ghostwriters regardless. in this day and age young nikkas won't care cause in the next few months if lets say Drake drops a new album then everybody will be on his dikk.

I dont try to fight a battle that I have no investment in. All I can say is that they arent hip-hop fans or MC fans...just pop music fans masquerading as such. Which is totally cool. People are just ashamed to admit that it seems and the "stannage" comes out of them in defense.

everybody who is a Drake fan is freaking out over that bullshyt smh

:snoop: nikka through the years of Hip Hop alot of people used ghostwriters but not that many people found out about it. Big Bank Hank(R.I.P.) stole lyrics from Grandmaster Caz for the song, Rapper's Delight. Lil Kim first album was entirely written by Biggie and the Hitmen(Stevie J and them), the only part Lil Kim did was to say girly/sexy shyt. even Cam'ron wrote a verse for Lil Kim or Lil Cease for the song Crush On You on that album. Jay wrote some verses for Foxy Brown, for their collabs or for Ill Na Na. Nas wrote Miami or Get Jiggy With It for Will Smith, the D.O.C., Snoop, RBX, and Tha Dogg Pound wrote The Chronic for Dr. Dre. Ma$e and Biggie wrote the majority of Diddy's first album with The Hitmen. the point is nikkas will use ghostwriters regardless so fans shouldn't be tripping over that dumb ass shyt.

I've been knee deep arguing with these lunatics for a week now with no end in sight. No outcome is going to effect me or change my mind on what kind of music I like, but this is a hip-hop message board so half of what I am here for is the debating of topics :manny:

I will say this though; right, wrong, or indifferent, as long as Drake keeps putting out the same quality of music, he will still continue to kill the charts and I will continue to be a fan of his music :banderas:

I was a fan of Meek, but unless he says or does something spectacular on Flex tonight, I am done with him and his hoe ass antics. First the nonsense he pulled on Wale, and now this.....neither of which seems to have occurred for any real good reason. For a barely decent rapper (he's helped by A1 production like most of MMG), also being a crab and a snake puts him below the line of people whose music I fukk with :camby:
:what:
so you are cool with drake being a dr dre part 2, but at the same time he is masquerading on billboards with real lyricist like rakim and biggie.
nah, fukk that. he is either a lyricist or a product of studio magic.
i don't care either way,but...if its found out that drake does not write the majority of his shyt,
then he should be permanently excluded from the 'best of this generation/ever' talk.
that shyt is only reserved for the real!!!
(hopefully drake addresses the issue in his next diss track,cause charged up said jackshyt))
2 cents!!

I don't care if somebody else writes for you. As long as you give the writer credit for it.

Stop it slime. You acting like dude doesn't write most of his rhymes himself :stopitslime:

Unless that somehow proves to be the case, which has a 0% chance of happening, your argument is nonsense. But we shall see; Meek's ignant ass is going to air out whatever he can tonight and we will go from there :yeshrug:
