In a recent interview with VladTV, veteran rapper, Royce Da 5’9″ shared his experience in the game when it comes to ghostwriting.

Drizzy not writing? Because he’s so fucking dope. But after looking back at it in retrospect, it’s a newer way of creating.” However, Royce did state that when it comes to ranking artists and lyricists ghostwriting does have to be taken into account. “The rules do have to change a little bit when you’re ranking these artists, where they stand as best lyricists… To me a lyricist is a writer,” he said. “You automatically can’t be a lyricist if you’re not writing everything.” More below.
