Nicki Minaj has been dogged by allegations of using ghostwriters for her whole career.
It certainly didn't help on her on that front when her ex Safaree claimed he co-penned much of her catalog.
On Twitter this weekend, Nicki broke down which of her tracks she wrote.
🥳 yup. ChunLi AND BarbieTingz were written by me from start to finish. i saw you guys talking about it. I could go down the list. Who wants me to? one writer & 1 producer. I also signed that producer. JReid — he’s dope. https://t.co/jpi6DCt6fe

Probably the whole pink Friday album. Most of all the album cuts on my albums. These I’m naming r singles.
Other “writers” names’ are added for sampling, adlibs, feature, production, etc.
Wrote hook as well as verse. Obviously romans revenge I sampled pic.twitter.com/fyaivvqFra

Looking back the songs I write the hook on cut through more to the listener. I think. Once u get successful ppl start sending you hooks on beats they chose & I think the artistry starts getting lost.

Just b/c u didn’t write the hook doesn’t always mean it don’t cut through tho. If u body the verses. Like “Hard White, LLC” but listening back to the ones I wrote the hook puts me in this emotional place cuz I remember the mind frame I was in and where I was in life. #GanjaBurn

You buy all of that?
