But Dumi Dumi if I credit them they’re no longer a “ghost” writer. Just a writer. Angithi they agree in the first place to remain anonymous

We are not ghost writers(we are writers who are behind the scenes). As a writer by profession, I write for big companies and never get credited because the main focus is on the company and not on me. However I do get paid for my writing. Securing the bag is more important.

But the term “ghostwriting” in order for the writer to remain unknown.

I hate the term “ghost writer” because songwriters are a vital part of the music industry…so yes, let’s do good business ie. Split Sheets and credit every person that was a part of the song…even the sound engineers 🤙🏾
