Awol1:
There are four persons that have had 100 entries on the Billboard Hot 100:-

Elvis Presley
Lil Wayne
Drake, and
Nicki Minaj.

Now, it is on record that Elvis Presley did not write any of his songs. All songs were written for him.

Gifts are different. Each of us with our own different gift.

Just Davido said, maybe other artists need to be more forthcoming with the truth.

In America, songwriters are given their full credits and are even included in Grammy nomination.

So, the illiterate ranter should shut the fvck up


You get sense bro. No mind those haters

Song writers are not easy to come by they are the one the god of music have blessed with lyrics which comes as an inspiration so a music artist who understand music business will not waste his or her tome cracking an empty head to write song rather will employ a song writer or buy one. Davido's understand music business well and that is why he is up there .

Maybe ab-initio Davido did not give the writers their credits (on the album) . Maybe

Cos artistes can even be sued by writers/contributors for not giving them their credits on a song (for Western world o not here, in Naija they only rant on HipTv or are belittled like black face)


It's always base on agreement, do you know the agreement between the writer and the artist?

Everyone has a 'calling'. A good song writer cannot be a good musician, also a good musician cannot be a good song writer. If u want to go far in the music industry. U must have a song writer, a manager, perfectionist, media manager. etc. The reason Davido and Wizkid are doing well is because they employ great people to work for them. Most musicians don't know these secrets. Great response from Davido.

Most musicians have song writers it's just the nature of the game. But I do wonder why the song writers don't just sing the songs they write and seek out sponsors to promote it. Ed Sheeran used to write songs for Tailor swift, Justin Bieber, One Direction, Hilary Duff and many others until he started singing his own songs. His song "Shape of You" is easily one of the highest watched videos on YouTube, and most of his songs top billboards worldwide
Writing is one talent and so is singing but in different perspectives. Advocating for song writers to entirely own their songs by singing them may not always be a success story. A clear example is that of Blackface( a talented writer to those who know him) and 2face (a good singer). Obviously, Blackface's "African Queen" doesn't measure up to 2face's version- same song, same lyrics.. And many other examples. Though some artists combine the both talents, like Ed Sheeran you mentioned, the late OJB Jezreel etc.
To the main topic, that fan doesn't know much about music, even great artists like MJ and R. Kelly had song writers.

I hope you’re not implying that Nicki has writers.. Nicki has been writing her music for years. She even write for other people like Kanye, young Thug, etc. Thats why these newbies ain’t touching her pen game. No female rapper can do it like her, her talent is unmatched.

I don't think ed writes songs for one direction , they had a really really good song writer in Harry styles and Zayn , infact most of the crew were good song writers . Maybe we wrote for them sha , but I don't think so .


PS ed is a really good song writer , Sia wrote diamonds for Rihanna and many other songs for her , Beyonce , Adele etc .

Blackface wrote - 2face African queen
OJB wrote - 2face right here and if love is a crime
Odogwu wrote - 2face I'm feeling you
But he's still one of the greatest artist we have so what's the problem if AG write a song for OBO...na we go still complain say we need song with meaningful lyrics but would still condemn someone when he tries to get one. Naija n badballe na 5&6.
