Roscoe Dash stirred up controversy last week when he claimed that he was not properly credited for work he did on Wale’s “Lotus Flower Bomb” and G.O.O.D. Music’s “To the World,” from Cruel Summer, which features Kanye West and R. Kelly.
In an interview with MTV News, Dash elaborated on the claims. “I just want people to understand what people have to go through in the industry, what we have to deal with on a day-to-day basis,” he said of his Twitter rant. “No matter who you are, no matter what you’ve done in the past, it’s a dirty game.”
Dash revealed that he felt he had been taken advantage of. “People like myself who are generous, we like to go out and participate in other people’s stuff. We like to keep our hands in a lot of different things rather than just worry about one specific thing, which would be ourselves,” he continued. “Me particularly, just because of the past stuff I’ve been going through with my personal career, [I thought] maybe I don’t have to worry about this right now. Fuck talking about the album: Let’s go and do something else over here and get my mind off of this for minute so when I come back I have a clear head [and know] what I wanna do. [But] we get walked on a lot, and I just want people to know that it happens. Plain and simple.”
Neither Wale nor Kanye have responded to the accusations.

no one cares what u think
Nigga’s acting like he wrote the whole record.STFU,just collect yur check for the hooks.
fkn faggot
Shut up, Roscoe.
Just give credence to him where other artists won’t. If Kanye couldn’t give due diligence for a guy writing the lyrics, which they should have, and which every ghostwriter should be merited to, then don’t rag on him. He deserved his name on there just as much as the paycheck itself. You guys aren’t writing, you guys aren’t making the money he is. He has to build his clout, which is negligible as it is, and has to keep up, maintain, within the game. That’s tough to do.
dude u used lmost all your “buzz Words” and i your mind “intelligent turn of phrase” ALL WRONG. You sound like a pretencious idiot.
“It’s a dirty game”…..In other obvious news, the sky is blue….
