Roscoe Dash has a bone to pick Kanye West. And Wale. And the music industry as a whole.
The Atlanta rapper is best known for his “All the Way Turnt Up” single, but he feels he should be known for a few other things he’s penned. He took to Twitter to express his frustration about not being included in the Cruel Summer album credits. He says he was a part of the “To the World” record and that his ad-libs can still be heard on the song.
He also tweeted that he wrote the chorus to “Lotus Flower Bomb” for Wale and received no credit for that either. Miguel told Complex that Roscoe’s claims are false and the writing process was behind himself, Wale and “an alternative artist.” Kanye’s camp have yet to comment.
You can read the tweets below. Everyone knows the music industry is a cutthroat place, especially if you don’t have all your business in order. Does Roscoe have a valid argument here or should he have been more on top of things?
Everybody go get the G.O.O.D album and listen to #1 then watch @kanyewest interview worldstarhiphop.com/videos/video.p… & tell me y I’m not on the credits

UPDATE: Roscoe caught wind of Miguel’s comments and had some more words to say to him. Miguel responded, claiming he was misquoted and Meek Mill decided to add his two cents as well.
