Every big time artist does this. Dr. Dre had Mel Man, Daz, Quik, Scott Storch. Devante Swing had Timbaland. Teddy Riley had Pharrell.
Kanye and Dre aren't just beat makers. They're producers. They're brands. It's a business. Yes they will suck the life out of other's talents to further their own brand. It's exactly what every company does, like Apple and Nintendo.
A song will get more plays/sales of it says "Produced by Kanye" instead of "Produced by Young Chop". Not rocket science. Kanye is a brand and has a heavy image. Chop doesn't. maybe he could if he would get off Twitter and stop making these amateur videos. But that's half the problem. We want to smoke weed drink party tweet all fukking day and complain instead of building an brand/image. Then say it's the white man's fault
Complaining about it makes you look amateur and corny. If you despise this practice so much then build your own brand and stop bring geeked to work with a big time artist. Not that hard
Emotional rants like this just gets you blackballed or makes people look at you like you're a crybaby.
It's been going on for years, shyt didn't just start with Kanye.
nikkas would rather get paid $10K to ghostproduce/ghostwrite for another big time artist then to actually build their own brand and be their own man. Then cry when they're unknown and uncredited. You were too hungry for the fast money dumbass, what do you expect
That's why nikkas like Master P will always be legends
He wasn't eager to sell his soul/talent for a dollar. nikka said "nah Ima build my shyt organically"
