After reading both of your replies I understand your views a lot more. Here is my spin on the whole ghostwriting thing in rap. Basically, I feel that 95% of the rappers that spit are telling us lies and tall tales anyway. Kind of like playing a character in a movie or television show. It’s not like we are reading a page out of their diaries or something, which is very personal and honest. This is nothing but entertainment and the major concern for most artists is the release the best material possible to hopefully make a profit. Not as fake as wrestling, but it’s getting there…

As Too Short once explained, the person he is on his records is nothing like who he in his personal life. He understands what Too Short fans expect in his music and that’s what he gives them. IMO opinion lyrics are just one aspect of a great record. Production, delivery, cadence, flow, etc. play just as much of factor in the overall product as the lyrics do, especially since I know the majority of the stuff they say are lies anyway. I may be a great writer, but I don’t have the voice for rap which leads to a ghostwriting collaboration. Not a crime in my book.

I except ghostwriting in rap because I know it’s going on A LOT more than most rap fans realize. Regardless, I all I want is some great music!

@ snorty, for sure bruh.

GOOD MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWNIN

…..yeah I kind of figured that, just cause I hope you werent in the studio for return to the 36 chambers, lmao…and while I don’t blame dirty for doing it cause he obviously wasn’t in any state of mind to be writing and can’t blame him for trying to get paid, but still if I was buying a Dirty album I’m buying it on the strentgh of his wild personality not someone elses imitation of him…
