Hello. I was just looking through the "Dr.Dre" sucks thread. I noticed most of the replies there state that Dr.Dre as Ghostwritters to write his lyrics. So how much of this is really true.
Where can I see it say what songs we're written by who? Also does Dre admitt to having Ghostwritters? I have never heard any of this until today. So what do you guys know?
Thanks,
BlueEew.

It's not the matter since he's not a rapper. He's just "a producer who can rap and control the maestro".
It is also widely acknowledged that most of Dr. Dre's raps are written for him by others, though he retains ultimate control over his lyrics and the themes of his songs. As Aftermath Producer Mahogany (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahogany) told Scratch (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scratch_%28magazine%29): "It's like a class room in [the booth]. He'll have three writers in there. They'll bring in something, he'll recite it, then he'll say. 'Change this line, change this word,' like he's grading papers."
