Read this. Unless one of them come out and say exactly what he did, we won't know but just cause he got that award doesn't mean he wrote the whole damn song.

Without knowing what he did its impossible to know what he did and did not write.
Ok so tweet them, email them, write them a letter or something and ask. Until then he was "apart" of the song. -
Wow....and the fuckery continues.

What did that ? do? Somebody tell me...
How was he involved in Alright?
Lmao if you're not stanning for Kendrick then these ? are gonna ignore your words
I'm more disappointed that Kendrick even needed a ghostwriter for that simple-ass mediocre-ass track tbh -

Back in the early 90s l there was some talk out here in the Bay that Del the Funky Homosapien was writing some of Cube's rhymes

Probably cause Vlad's Jewish, and Cube ? all over the Jews on the Death Certificate album.
Aye bruh, we can leave Jewish folks outta this one this time..

But Vlad on some ? ? indigenously
He would be a ? ass Arab
He would be a ? ass Fillipino
He would be a ? ass Nigerian
This dude the buzzfeed clickbait ? the content give me the headline KING.
Give him his individual mark card and leave his peoples out of it
At least this time, he's that wack fam -
Vlad a certified ? ?

I'll care when various reference tracks for GKMC, Section 80, TPaB and uu come out.

If you have any input in the lyrics....a bar to the chorus you can get writing credits....I doubt if cats wrote Cubes verses.....

Cube still on my GOAT list. We dont know to what degree Cube had outside input on his songs. Plus the fact he mentions it so freely as if to maybe say, im giving credit to one of the few to assist me.
Plus the top notch social commentary he added to the game was priceless.

..IF KDOT WINS A GRAMMY FOR THE SONG, THEN ANNNNNNYBODY WHO HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE SONG WINS ALSO.. DUDE COULD HAVE SIMPLY MADE THE BEAT, HOOK OR ANYTHIN.. DOESNT MEAN HE WROTE THE SONG
See you say that. I thought that too but when i went to the song info dude is NOT LISTED at all. he not the producer, he listed as "songwriter" so he wrote the song.
Im very disappoint. Disappoint as ? .
...OK.. EVEN DOE WE KNOW DRAKE GOT A GHOST WRITTER... CHECK THIS OUT, KIA SHYNE GOT A GRAMMY FROM DRAKE CAUSE DRAKE USED LIKE HALF A LINE FROM DUDE.... SO I GUESS IT COULD HAVE BEEN SOMETHING LIKE THAT
U ? jus want to give kendrick a pass -

But a rapper with a ghost writer? What the ? happened?
(Oh no!)
I swore I wouldn't tell
But most of y'all sharing bars
Like you got the bottom bunk in a two-man cell
(A two-man cell?)
Even if he (Kawan) didnt write that, it's ironic that another man won a Grammy for writing credits on this song... In reality there is nothing wrong with someone inspiring you or giving you an idea for a story to rap about, but its really wack when ? feed you bars.. Like Cyhi and Kanye. That is supposed to be the skill of hip hop, your wit, its not like ? were writing amazing metaphors and punchlines for Eazy, it was basic 1-2-3, im a g ? ... It's different when you want people to view as some dope ass rapper and you really just nodding your head to good ideas from your team.
I mean I guess it's the equivalent to President's having speech writers, they get all the love because of their delivery but in reality they are just voicing the opinions of their handlers, saying whatever will get a good reaction, not what's on their minds. -
There's nothing saying he ghostwrote the entire track either...especially if he got a Grammy. Ghostwriting is secret...a grammy is public as ? -

Supposedly Del wrote Gansta's Fairytale from Amerikkka's Most Wanted. -

yes. -
I wouldn't be shocked if Mack 10 and WC have written for Cube in the past and vice versa.

Samples, producers, anyone who played instruments on the record all get songwriting credits.
Not true. Most musicians are hired to play on a record on a work-for-hire basis and don't get any song writing credits. A producer might say, hey I want you to lay down a funky bass-line like bootsy on this one. Even if the bass player is basically coming up with the bass-line, that's not considered writing. Same for drums, guitar solos, etc.. Of course, you can be like "hey I think I deserve a song-writing credit for this", and that's when they replace you with another player. This is kind of what happened with Pork Chop when he laid musical tracks on Snoop's stuff with Dre. -

Sidebar... I'm watching this long ass Drake/Zane Lowe interview, and I'm about to click out this ? unless there's any mention of the ghostwriting ? . Do they talk about it at any point?
-
Kats got the game ? up I can tell most of yall do not understand the writing and production process. In a Studio you hear a beat you are vibing you spit some lines and your homeboy may be like why do you not add in this word or phrase into that ? to make the ? a little hotter. You wrote the verse but homie helped you expand the topic or verbiage so they are a considered a cowriter. Back in the day it was not a big a thing as now as kats were given whole verses or someone would write full bars that got incorporated into a verse for a track to help tie it in or up. The cypher format is about that building off of vibe...
Master of Ceremonies, Microphone Controller in the end written for you by you or for someone else if you cannot spit it right you are not a MC... -
It's 2016, Cube hasn't been a relevant rapper since 1996. No one cares.

Maybe so, but I just watched Barbershop 3 a few days ago so he's still relevant and there's a lot of people who care or this thread wouldn't be 3 pages. -
Strictly as a rapper he's not. I ? with Cube but let's be real here. He's pretty much an actor now. The stuff he did in the late 80s and early 90s is unfuckwithable. That being said, he's been more and more into acting as less into making music. So if people really in a tissy if he did or did not have ghostwriters I say put your energy into something else. -
Del The Funky Homosapian is underrated
