The concept of ghostwriting

The use of ghostwriters in hip-hop is not a new phenomenon. Since the 1980s, rumors and controversies have surrounded top-tier artists allegedly using ghostwriters. While some argue it detracts from the authenticity of the art form, others view it as a collaborative approach.

Veteran figures in hip-hop, like Big Daddy Kane, also acknowledged a long-standing practice of ghostwriting. These are writers who create lyrics for artists but remain anonymous. Kane himself worked behind the scenes on Biz Markie’s early hits. However, the concept of ghostwriting has always been a controversial topic in hip-hop.
