dres verses are too good, who did the writing 4 him?

Prolly Em

no, it was jay-z. he ghostwrote them for him. his name is in the credits.

Em's verse was crazy on that track, I still love that song.

Yeah Was Jigga Man

I might be mistakin but I believe Jay-Z wrote Still D.R.E. and Eminem wrote the whole Forgot about Dre song...I might be wrong, but I am pretty sure of it

I don't see it in my copy of 2001?

Em wrote all of Forgot about Dre and Jigga wrote Still DRE i'm 90% sure.

How many times? Jay-Z was credited for writing or partly writing Still D.R.E. Jay-Z was not credited for Forgot About Dre. My guess would be eminem wrote it. Can someone tell me who "BRADFORD MELVIN CHARLES" is?

I found out through Many if not all, ghost writers are credited for it. Maybe in their contract is says they will or will not be credited, not sure about this tho.

Wow, lol I knew Jay-Z wrote "Still Dre", but I had no idea that everyone else (Eminem, Hittman, etc) wrote Dr. Dre's verses too, damn he didn't even write one verse for his own album? Damn that's sad IMO, but nonetheless a great album...

Well Dre isn't a writer, hes a producer and rapper. But theres a difference between rapping and writing.

what did dre write?

damn Hittman practically wrote that whole album, he's got credit on almost every song, why did Dre drop him again?

u gotta be talented as fu*k to ghostwrite that good....like write verses for someone elses style something completely different than ur own.....already knew eminem n jay-z could do that sh*t but big ups to hittman why aint he blown up?????

when he raps he is weak as hell tho..
he had a verse at the end of forgot bout dre but it got taken out i think
