LOL........Told y'all this was happening in the Drake -vs- Meek thread, which is why no major rappers came out on Meek's side. Either way, major love to the Chi-Town legend Twista. He's one of the coldest to ever do this rap ? .
Cassidy also told y'all that ghostwriting was normal in hip hop and damn near everybody uses them from time to time....

Another major topic from 2015 was the use of ghostwriters in Hip Hop. The conversation was sparked by Meek Mill calling out Drake for not writing his verse on their collaboration “R.I.C.O.” Has Twista ever had someone else pen his rhymes?
“Yeah,” he admits. “Not nothing where I’m trying to prove to you that Twista is the dopest artist or I got the best lyrics.”
The creator of the Livin Legend EP adds he only used a ghostwriter on about three songs. In addition, Twista warns he still has the lyrical ability to take on anyone that may want to challenge him.

Did you even read what you posted?
Once again, you ? gotta stop stabbing for Drake
Just because Twista used a ghostwriter that doesn't make it right or acceptable
And why is Twista your authority on this?
-
I never thought it was a big deal anyways...that ? 's been going on since the Beginning of Hip Hop .
Sometimes, some ? is just dope and this Artist has the right voice and Charisma to bring out the right energy w/ those Lyrics & Cadence. It Also gives unknowns opportunities to get a check and get started in the industry . . . so i don't knock it at all . -
Never would have guessed it

Twista is a living legend, so yea........he's an authority on this subject. -
i would hate to be this ? ghost writer ? would have to write this ? verses on long ass posterboards in regular hand writing
? would have to write like 5 verses to fit one verse for him
twista ghost writer gets mandatory over time -
ghost writing for ? who claim to be mcs is still lame
-
And why is Twista your authority on this?
not saying i agree, but he got something like 25 years in the game. i think his opinion means something.
-
If u can't write it yourself you don't need to say it
-
"The creator of the Livin Legend EP adds he only used a ghostwriter on about three songs." As long as his rap career is that's not bad, I guess
-
@goldie gonna be mad about this
-
Not a good look.. Kinda saw him as a gimmick this doesn't help him.
-
These rappers keep breaking yall hearts nh

Bernie Kosar had a long ass career too.
Anyway, i mentioned that my guess on who would do this is old head rappers who just lazy, qanna keep current, regardless of their talent level . I said Busta as a an example of whobi wouldn't be surprised doing it. Twista is right on that type lane -
I never would've thought Twista used ghostwriters.
-
Am I surprised.. Yes & no. I'm more surprised that in 2015 people give a ? that it's Twista.

Twista looks like he hangs out with 20 year olds
-
I guess nobody watched the vid.
3 songs in a 20 plus year career? I aint trippin bout that. He said he just recently did it just ? around on a crunk type track. This was post adrenaline rush, post kamikaze , but ? quick to read the thread title and not check facts. -
Down right shameful if you ask me

Twista ain't someone I would check for as far as lyricism anyways so him admitting to it even if its 3 songs don't change my opinion of him. He had some hot joints & left his mark, but this isn't something anyone really should give a ? about.

? deflection levels at all time highs.

That's 3 too many bruh. But it isn't like he's Puffy or Dre status with the ghostwriters though but it is what it is. -

So those 3 songs he recently used ghostwriters for negates his whole career? In that case Cube shouldnt be on any lists either.I guess nobody watched the vid.

I never said it negates his career. Maybe I'm old school in my beliefs but I feel that rappers should write all their lyrics, choruses can be excused. -
It always irked me when they called him a "gimmick" rapper.....just because the ? can rap circles literally around your fav rapper...its a gimmick. ..FOH
