Re: Detox..

They both ghost-wrote for Dr. Dre on Detox. They got paid BIG money.

No offence. But lmfao. Why would Dre ask Drake and Weezy to write for him? Dr. Dre, Em, Luda, Nas, Jay-Z, all the other huge hiphop icons and superstars/legends are on there, no offence but Dre is awesome and shouldn't be using drizzy and weezy to write for him, that'll ruin his reputation and lyrical ability.

i.e lyrical ability as in people know how dre raps, so drake/weezy writing would expose that that's not his style, etc. Also dre's overall old school rep.

Almost every Dre song is written by someone else.


From Wikipedia about Dre:

Ghostwriters

It is acknowledged that most of Dr. Dre's raps are written for him by others, though he retains ultimate control over his lyrics and the themes of his songs. As Aftermath producer Mahogany told Scratch: "It's like a class room in [the booth]. He'll have three writers in there. They'll bring in something, he'll recite it, then he'll say. 'Change this line, change this word,' like he's grading papers." As seen in the credits for tracks Young has appeared on, there are often multiple people who contribute to his songs (although it should be noted that often in hip hop many people are officially credited as a writer for a song, even the producer).

In the book How to Rap, RBX explains that writing The Chronic was a "team effort" and details how he ghostwrote "Let Me Ride" for Dre. In regard to ghostwriting lyrics he says, "Dre doesn't profess to be no super-duper rap dude - Dre is a super-duper producer". As a member of N.W.A, The D.O.C. wrote lyrics for him while he stuck with producing. Popular New York City rapper Jay-Z ghostwrote lyrics for the single "Still D.R.E." from Dr. Dre's album 2001.

I think it's very likely that Weezy and Drake both wrote on Detox.

Re: Detox..

This is old news why are we still discussing this, and those two or one song that wayne and drizzy wrote could be left out of the album so theres no point in this till the album actually comes out, which till this day is the most pushed back album in the history of rap
