First and foremost all of u need to learn about th music industry every artists have about 5 to 8 ppl on their credits... That doesn't mean that they all wrote the songs, some people wrote the actual music part, there are ppl who help contribute just cause someone is the producer doesn't always means they make the beat the just mix all the ingredients all together to make the songs...some ppl are the engineers and some are the background singers... The all get credit that's how they get paid... I find it funny how ppl are trying to said that Rihanna is a songwriter when her biggest hot to date "Umbrella" was actual written for Mary J Blige (Google and The dream, who wrote the song said it him self) irreplaceable was written for a country singer but they turn it down and Beyoncé got it... A lot of Justin's and Usher early work were all for Micheal Jackson but he turn the down so as u can see not everyone writes their own material all 50% of the time just case there are 8 ppl listed on songwriter credit doesn't mean the artists can't write... There is a lot of work, production and ppl to make these songs that we dance to... Some songs are also samples too so the original artists is also listed on the song credits... So before having these STAN wars please learn your fact and the funny thing is a lot of these artists that u STAN for and go against the actual like each other music and respect there work ethic for example Ciara is a huge Beyonce STAN, and love and respect her and Beyonce said herself (around Bday era when she was on 106&park..and yes it is on YouTube ) that she likes and respect Ciara so let's stop this cause you all are making your fave look bad... Enjoy their music and that is all if u are not checking for a certain artists then don't waste engery having hate towards them cause at the end of the day they are living their dreams and other ppl like them.... While u are on here hiding behind a computer, laptop, iPad, iphone, MacBook, tablet or a smartphone auguring over nothing
