Since Meek Mill exposed Drake for using ghostwriters for majority of his songs, including the verse he laced on R.I.C.O (a song on Meek;s latest album), rapping have been giving their opinion on the issue of a rapper using a ghostwriter. In his recent phone-in interview with DJ VLad, Cassidy gave his 2 cents on the issue.
"It's been plenty of rappers that I have liked they music my whole life before I knew them and then when I got a chance to meet them they wanted me to write for them. So I'm like 'Damn.' I'm writing for niggas that I look up to because I always thought they was crazy, but it wasn't really them that was crazy. It was them and a group of niggas, whoever they was working with at the time, that got them crazy or played a part in them getting crazy..."
Hmm! And it gets more interesting. "
I don't go and announce the rappers that I have written for. That's not to say that the people you just named but some type of big names, big people I done gave stuff to time and time again. I know other people that done gave them stuff. I done seen it. It's so many times that I done seen it and the majority of the music that comes out, it is a team of people working on it to make it happen so I wouldn't be shocked. I would be shocked if a dude spitted on his own 100% all by himself. Then I would be shocked because that's what's hard to find especially from a nigga that's lit."
Whoa! This is some heavy stuff. I would give a million bucks to know the 'big name' rappers he was referring to. Nas? Jadakiss? Busta Rhymes? Hmm! I can only guess until someone else exposes those people. But I am sure people would be extra careful with reference tracks and ghostwriter business right now...Thanks to Meek Mill and Funk Flex.
