Taylor Swift says that female artists, including female rappers, are not evaluated in the same way as their male counterparts.
“It’s a little discouraging that females have to work so much harder to prove that they do their own things,” Taylor Swift says during an interview with TIME. “I see Nicki Minaj and Iggy Azalea having to prove that they write their own raps or their own lyrics, and it makes me sad, because they shouldn’t have to justify it.”
In August 2013, Nicki Minaj endured ghostwriting claims from rapper Ransom, who said that he wrote some of her early material.
“What?” Nicki Minaj said at the time. “I rap better than him. Who the fuck is he, crazy?”
She continued: “Yo, I’m not even a man and niggas got my dick in their mouth. Are you serious? I’m undisputed because I’m the only female rapper, that, day one, I don’t need no motherfucking ghostwriter. So if you tellin’ that lie, you must be real fucking desperate and you still ain’t gunna pop. How ’bout that?”
In July 2014, T.I. said that he does not write for Iggy Azalea, but that Iggy and he do, like many other artists, get input from others while recording.
“I ain’t no ghostwriter,” T.I. said at the time. “Iggy got her own ideas and thoughts that she presents to the world her own way. I couldn’t write a lot of the shit she say, you know? I couldn’t put her thoughts into words as articulate as she does. You know what I’m saying? She just has a different way of presenting herself and her art. So, I mean—Now don’t get me wrong, everybody in the studio helps with hooks and certain things like that. That goes for me and any of the other top five rappers, performers…You want the best ideas.”
like i’m gonna ride with taylor swift on this, lmfao
Iggy sucks balls and totally has a ghost writer if not like 5, nicki actually can rap and writes her own shit
if she sucks….then shouldn’t she be good…that being the reason she has a ghostwriter? Either her shit sucks and she just sucks or she has a ghostwriter and she’s decent. it isn’t a logical conspiracy that people would pay a shitty ghostwriter when she could write shit herself.
on top f that, why would anyone prop up a hoe when hoes are dime a dozen. If some nigga was just lookin to get his dick sucked, he wouldn’t have to go through this much trouble for the piece. I mean really, she must be damn good if he’s gonna prop this chick up.
Really just shows how out of touch she is with the black culture she reps so hard. Nobody is seriously disputing Nicki’s authenticity when it comes to writing. In fact, Nicki is the one who called out Iggy subliminally (so social media says) and made it a thing worth talking about. The fact that she would even put them in the same league…It’s just funny cause nikkas couldn’t stand Nicki until Iggy came along lol.
you’re dumb, you’re just taking one side over the other seeing that they’re suffering the same prejudice. even the media taking nicki’s comments as direction at iggy is stupid. they just assumed cause iggy is in the position she’s in she must be talking about her. cause shes a girl.
why the fuck is taylor swift article on here? its obv different being a country singer having a ghost writer than hiphop.
TI made a comment about how artists get help in the studio when it comes to hooks and all that. That makes me wonder…who the fuck is helping Chief Keef? Is it his 15 year old soldiers or something. Fuckin drill music has got to go!
You hipster fags mad that taylor swift outsells your favourite rappers and makes all these bum rapper sales seem like garbage.
whatever geeky internet whiteboy
RANSOM NEVER CLAIMED HE WROTE HER RAPS. HE SAID HE GAVE HER FREE VERSES OF HIS VOCALS FOR HER MIXTAPES BEFORE SHE BLEW UP. THIS WAS CLEARED UP A LONG TIME AGO. BUT I GUESS HIPHOPDX DOESNT CARE ABOUT THE FACTS THEY JUS WANNA WRITE WHATEVER FITS THEIR ARTICLES EVEN IF ITS NOT REAL.
Iggy azalea is the only one who ghost writes, and idgaf what you say thats disrepectful as fuck to this game and the people who work on there image AND lyrics. Just because you dont have image doesnt mean you should be writing for someone else.

Who is this Taylor Swift girl? All I know if she is talkin bout Iggy and Nicki she must be the truth! I bet Taylor is the next, sick ass female MC. I’m about to google this bitch right now.
Why is this cunt Taylor Swift the one to go too on songwriting? shes a fucking amateur when it comes to it. probaly has producers helping her out as well. even then, her lyrics are cheesy and forgettable.
stfu. this cunt didn’t know what the fuck rap was 5 years ago. what the fuck would she know?
