track like 50 cent just a little bit

Sobe · 9th September 2005

On a track like 50 cent just a little bit who gets the writers credit for the music , the guy who did the beat since it has no melody ... I would think that 50 gets the lyric writing credit but the music must be the guy who did the beat . If this is true that is why Scott Storch is making so much $$ he is doing all of these peoples beats and since that is the only thing on the track other than the rap most of the time he is getting paid writers $$ every time he does a beat for all of these tracks .

Listening to a track like "just a little bit" must take all of about an hour or so to do and will bring in a small fortune in writers fees plus the production points .. plus the session fees ...

any one care to guess at what Scott's BMI check looks like every every few months . I remember working with Scarface and seeing one of his BMI checks and it was 800K ... that was nothing compared to what a guy like Scott must be seeing if he is doing so many peoples records as he is now .

yes, scott does get writers credits for all the songs he does. All hip hop producers get writing credits.
