Roscoe Dash was fired up on Twitter for not receiving credit on the G.O.O.D. Music compilation, Cruel Summer. Roscoe claims he wasn’t recognized for his work on Kanye’s “To The World” and Wale’s huge hit “Lotus Flower Bomb”. Below is what he said via his Twitter account—written entirely by himself.
Everybody go get the G.O.O.D album and listen to #1 then watch @kanyewest interview … & tell me y I’m not on the credits. Can’t do favors for niggas bcuz no matter how humble and generous u r to ppl niggas will take everything u have … Even niggas u look up to. The most talented ppl get the least credit for everything and the crazy part is they put in the MOST work…
Same shyt with @wale lotus flower bomb I wrote that for him b4 he even signed to Ross & it went #1 ….but nobody would kno that cuz I’m not in the credits. But EVERYTHING must eventually come to the light…. & I’m only speaking on this publicly bcuz there are so many ppl who wanna be apart of the industry but dnt Kno half of the shit that goes on.
UPDATE: Moments of clarity
After getting off the phone with @wale I feel like I need to clarify I WROTE THE HOOK for "lotus flowerbomb" not his verses

Fuck Harvey Levin and anybody that loves his celebrity news website. First you prematurely pronounce the impending death of Lil Wayne (Weezy Forgives. We Don't.) and then you try to link the horrific actions of one of the Boston Marathon culprits to our culture? "DEAD BOMBING SUSPECT: HEAVY INTO HIP HOP" You don't say? It's 2013 and most kids are into rap music. We've been penetrated pop culture, you cock suckers. "What's interesting... hip-hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women." So our music is at fault in this tragedy? Let's be clear the only bombs my culture cosigns is DJ Funkmaster Flex's sound effects. Thirty Mile Zone is prone to post anything to get traffic. Fuck dude and his coffee cup. Get you a Rap Radar cup and drink with us in the winner's circle.
Oh Miguel. Leg droppin your fans? You ain't Hulk Hogan and that wasn't part of the program. That's no way to treat the adoring ladies, brother.
lol wale
i dont know anything about this dude, but the reality is, every aspiring musician should know right off the bat, no one in the industry is your friend and no one is doing you favors. hell, that applies to all of life, but especially the entertainment industry. entertainment is filled with snakes all desperate to be famous. they will cut any throat or rob anyone if it means they get to stay famous for a bit longer.
don’t ever expect michael jordan or kanye west to do you professional favors, these dudes are full of themselves and convinced that their success is more important than your success.
nah man dont believe it. Wales lotus bomb sounded like wale wrote it himself .. this dudes just lookin for attention
People only do what you allow them to do.

nigga need to go sue then unless he got payed already & if thats the case then he needs to shut the fuck up. he is owed millions if he actually wrote wale whole song but im pretty sure he only wrote the hook because thats all he is known for.
Sooooooooooooooooooo
You wrote hit records and didn’t copywrite your material or handle your paperwork. Whose fault is that? YOURS
No one’s crying for you. Next time handle your business correctly
dude needs to get over it and move on. I mean this nigga is even complaining about doing adlibs on Kanye’s “To the World”. like really?
He was paid right, then what are you complaining about you corny ass niccuh. The objective of a ghostwriter is you’re not suppose to be credited.
FYI ain’t nobody checking for no Roscoe Dash, you’re like T Pain, only good for hooks. lol

I hope he at least got paid.
@M.T.
Your comprehension is terrible. He’s pointing out that the ab-libs as proof of his involvement.
Go find a seat and quit looking for attention. Everyone gets theirs in due time
you all don’t know any of the details.. so everything you type is an assumption.
@Mag
I understand what hes saying. My point was hes complaining like a bitch and he needs to get over it. his ad-libs were trivial and doesnt make a big impact on the song.
I KNEW WALE WAS A SUCKA!!!! ‘OL LEECHN’ ASS NIGGA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
WOW Kanye using someone elsz craft or talent, and then not giving credit … whatels is new ??.
Thats hes whole career. but i bet you guys think he started the autotune trend (T-pain), or the sound, keys n horns hes using now (Daft Punk)
CTE 4LIFE
The funniest thing thow is Wale’s biggest hit isnt even his lol … MMG stay winnin right wagagagagagagga.
Is Wale doe, dat korny as nigga didnt do shit for me. ill have Rozay send him a check doe
dese hoe be actin up,,, and these niggas be lettin’ em!!

So, how long till he claims that his twitter was hacked?
“R O S C O E going HAM and sound like he’s full of baloney…”

————————-
THIS!
lol@ joshestes
Two words: BLACK BALL.
“Yo, Don C. Think you could do a press release crediting me for “To The World”?
When you use Twitter as your outlet, it just discredits your claim
Real shit, didn’t Kia Shine try the same stunt a couple years back claiming that he wrote some of “Best I Ever Had”??? Fail.
Reblogged this on The Music Business Revisionist and commented:
Uh oh…looks like there might be trouble in G.O.O.D. Music land? Well, at least in terms of Roscoe Dash contributing to Cruel Summer, as well as to Wale’s “Lotus Flower Bomb”. Dash’s comment at the end is the real icing on the cake. Kids, take notice and LEARN!
Ahaha what is it with niggas with names ending in Dash always bitching about someone from the Roc owing them something??? FOH if you wanted credit for it then you shoulda made sure that was part of the deal.
All these niggas claim that “all they are about is money” yet no one wants to take the time to do the paperwork to GET that money. Such dummys.
Him and Damon should start a label
(Dash It Ain’t Right)
idk about this one… writting a hook doesnt mean you “wrote” a record.
Fuck this nigga! Post the Lupe track.
U MAD Roscoe?!?
When will these people learn to stop airing such grievances through Twitter…that’s not the proper forum for those matters. If you’re really that bothered and you were wronged in some way, take it up with the people who can actually do something about it. This just makes everyone look bad
Kanye is gonna put him in his place
I def feel like he called roscoe in to help wit ideas wit kanye
Cuz also the pride n joy Record they did for fat joe he was on the hook also
And in sure he wrote r kellys part of tht new song
If your on a song you deserve to be in the credits period, that’s the reason why its there. All that other talk people saying is stupid.
On another note, Roscoe Dash is making moves for real low key. He’s on alot of good projects that people ain’t know… even if it is just the hook, that’s the catchiest part of the song and what sells ringtones etc
ELLIOT BACK IN THE GAME
better recognize that ish
bro i can feel for this but at the same time, if ur getting upset about not being credited for a hook off of one rappers song u know u dont have much going on in ur own career
IF ROSCOE WAS REALLY ABOUT HIS BUSINESS, HE WOULDVE HOLLERED AT THOSE MEN AND THEIR BUSINESS TEAMS DIRECTLY INSTEAD OF TAKING IT TO TWITTER. HE LOOKS LIKE A LIL BATCH. JAMES FAUNTLEROY WROTE WAY MORE ON THE CRUEL SUMMER ALBUM, AND HE AINT GET HIS NAME IN THE FRONT OF THE KANYE INTERVIEW. YOU SOUND LIKE A LIL BATCH, ROSCOE. NOW U ABOUT TO FUCK UP FUTURE MONEY CUZ U TALK TOO MUCH. THE KEY TO GHOSTWRITING IS BEING A GHOST. TAKE THE MONEY AND RESOURCES, AND STFU. SMH. THIS IS WHY YOU WILL NEVER BE TRULY WEALTHY FOR LIFE,….JUST NIGGA RICH FOR THE MOMENT. STUPID.
kanye ain’t finna do shit. nigga is a sucka
Update: Haaaa, Wale checked that nigga. Lmao. And he still need to clarify because he only wrote half of the hook. Miguel wrote the second half. You failing bruh.
lil nigga should’ve checked his paperwork from the gate.

I believe it…
Looking at the Number of responses on here I’d say Roscoe brought lawareness to a situation that might’ve been swept under the rug. Maybe he did talk to the powers that be bought his credits and dey paid him no mind. Now they have to deal wit it cuz he took it to twitter and caused a scene. Checkmate
