well it takes like three black people to screw in a lightbulb imagine how many an album takes

kanye did it first and now every rapper thinks they'll make something as good as MBDTF if a shitload of people work on it

it's about being pop/big budget, nothing to do with hip-hop you ignorant lil dummy

now delete this thread

Most of the people credited don't actually do anything other than smoke weed and say "yeah that sounds dope"

Hacks gonna hack

The best hip hop albums usually only have one producer

The sample itself has 3 writing credits
Then one producer makes a loop of it
Then another adds drums
Then another adds a "banging" 808
Someone else replaces the 808s in the second verse
2 other fellas in the room are going "thats fye"
Then the rapper on top of all that of course
And then one of the couch guys suggested a change to one bar

money laundering
extortion

>10 writers on the first song

rock albums would be way better if they had more ppl involved

Kanye isn't hiphop.

how credits get allocated is to do with label politics and business agreements, so they're often bartered for or given as favours. Also in hiphop the relationship between the songwriting and the production is much closer, so minor production choices like adding claps or whatever are treated as songwriting contributions which would never happen for a rock band.

hiphop is very reliant on sampling, artists/producers of any sample used have to be credited as well for clearance and royalty purposes.

*note how they needed white people here
weren't retaliating then were you kenny?? when they were making your shitty art for you

why do top gear shows have so many producers and writers? the jokes are oftentimes very simple, yet there are like 12 writers credit for the thing

top joke is fucking shit.i had an actual gangster friend who liked it and i just wish it advanced to that one guy actually dying

Because they will call anyone offering any ideas to production and writing a writer or producer. They'll usually have 10 friends sitting in the booth, one of them will be like "nah you gotta add some adlibs in there that'll be fire bro" and boom, they're on the credits list.
