    There are rumors that Ye did not write Jesus Walk.

    What the f--- broke-a--- ponzi scheme website did you link me to?

    Other than the title, this article says nothing about someone else writing his lyrics. It just says that he didn't write them down on paper until MBDTF.

    Heard this s--- so many times, but Ye has said that most verses he just stores it in his dome but GOOD ones like Jesus Walks or Power he writes down. (he wrote all of Yeezus too but in like one day so that's why they were meh)

    Not even being a Yeezy Stan here but look at his production credits he does most of his work and STILL lists every n----- that adds anything from significant changes to a f---ing drum loop, so I assume he'd do the same for lyrics especially since they're the less important aspect of his music

    No it doesn't it means Rhymefest literally wrote two lines about "you know what the midwest is"

    OK but that doesn't change the fact that the article has nothing to do with the headline.

    Nas is one of the few rappers that doesn't have anyone write his rhymes for him (guess he won, huh Camel Warriors?)

    Eminem had a lot of help from Charles Hamilton while writing Relapse, and B.o.B on Recovery

    TM103 was written mostly by Freddie Gibbs and 2 Chainz

    Craig Mack wrote for Biggie, Diddy, and Mase

    Kanye wrote for Mase

    Gudda Gudda, Jae Millz, Cory Gunz, and Short Dawg have been responsible for most of Wayne's post-prison output

    Kendrick Lamar has written for Game, Lupe, Snoop, and Dre

    Lupe only wrote about 30% of Lasers, the rest was low-level writers for Atlantic and Mickey Factz

    Kanye didn't write any of his WTT material besides the verses/hook on Who Gon Stop Me

    Royce da 5'9" wrote all of that EP he had with Em

    ASAP Rocky is pretty much completely a puppet. Dude can barely even read.

    Joell Ortiz used to write for 50 Cent

    Talib Kweli writes for Common now

    Drake has written for Kanye several times

    Most J. Cole productions are 70% down by Elite

    Real source. But i believe everything :dno:

    The reading comprehension of anyone who didn't take from that article what BigCountry did is beyond poor

    "I don't need writers I might bounce ideas, but only I could come up with some s--- like this."

    Like, is it really news that rappers help out other rappers with writing songs?

    Lol @ the jay z comparison, there is a difference between not writing your lyrics down (what jay said) and not writing your own songs. Dumbass article.
