i actually have a track on my album if yall paid attention that one of my boys from way back helped me write and in the credits it doesnt say i wrote ti it straight up says

written by: sensay
preformed by: 286

i dont view that as ghostwriting i view that as some sort of cover because im letting everyone know who wrote it, and i wanted to put my spin on the sound that it produced....

i think that is okay, but if your giving people lyics and its being kept secret that you wrote it and they are pretending like they did.....now thats wrong

that is what i do :thumbup:

It's one thing to be a "ghostwriter," it's a total other thing to just be a contributer in the writing process... a co-writer. I see absolutely no shame at all in being a writer, as long as you get the proper credit. It's not an uncommon thing by any means.

Ghostwriting is shady because you're passing off someone else's work as your own. It's good money and all, but I wouldn't be down to just forego my credit and take the cash. That aint right.

But yeah I'd say go for it man, there's tons of money out there for writers. Not that that's the reason you're pursuing it, but if you're looking to make a career out of it it's definitely possible. Best of luck.
