I'm from Mozambique, my older brother introduced this poet and MC to me through The Great Debaters Album in 2011, since then, I became a fan. Then I went back to The Salvation, A Dream Deferred, Music For My Friends, and all the joints with Apollo Brown especailly The Easy Truth. He is on another level, I'm grateful to him and to my brother.

I appreciate him going over who does ghostwriting. And the scenarios are to why: from introverts, to ppl with funny voices; Or ppl flat out didn't make it. It's definitely a Art you have to detach from cause you're giving your lyrics away for a price. And most time to not be mentioned.

Wow, I really need to check the entire interview. Sky's new joint has been kept on repeat for nearly two months now. Quite refreshing to hear his take on eliminating use of the N-word; if only so many others would do the same. Words cannot explain how extremely triggering it is to hear it in everything conversation, even worse when used by non-Blacks.

Ghostwriting is the dumbest thing to do to your career. Songwriting is better because you get the credit for it and other people see that you helped write for them so they contact you to work and you make more money. I ghostwrote for people it did nothing for me, they didnt extend me to other buyers/artists. Just $80-100 a song

Ghostwriting has been prevalent in music for a while. However, I will say most of the ones who use writers are talented themselves but lack the intangibles like hard work, dedication, etc. Sometimes the demand outweighs the supply so labels try to crank out as much as possible which is where writers come in. I don’t mind an artist using them but points have to be deducted, not too much though if it’s proven they’re good without it.

Then on "Still D.R.E" he sounded like Hard Knock Life era Jay-Z with the cadence and everything so I definitely see what Skyzoo is talking about with some ghostwriters just using their own styles.

I want to be a ghostwriter. I have been decent with the pen since I was young, but I don’t like my voice and I struggle to stay on beat…it’s always been so embarrassing.

Maybe after you write your lyrics...go in again and work the words into a beat. Figure out how you wanna say it precisely on the beat. And also write a new version with precise notation. or you might be writing stuff you cant say..like it's too far from your talking voice keeping it more natural is always better than complicared stuff that nobody feels

Gotta say being a ghostwriter doesn’t sound like the worst living. If I get 25k-45k verse, bro that’s good money there. I can get me a nice house, a BMW, and some nice watches doing that 20-30 times a year, and I don’t have to deal with a lot of the fame BS. I’ll take that

Currently the landscape of the mc has changed. Before you had to write your own rhymes and judged on your lyricism but now its like pop and R&B with writers for artists who are excellent entertainers.
