[@amfthehedgehog1234]

Wow

[@jeanhubley9179]

I got lyrics from a child grew up in hood

[@AFoodReview]

This is business advice not actual songwriting advice.

[@DAMONDANIELS]

words and mouth movement not matching

[@jackmiller665]

Wonder what evil shxt he seen while workin for Beyonce

[@superblondeDotOrg]

Terrible advice, co-write a song with four other ppl and take 10%? Puhhhleeze hell no, Bob Dylan sure didn't do it that way.

[@sandycheeks6001]

10 percent better than you not making any money bro.

[@superblondeDotOrg]

@@sandycheeks6001 Who is in music to make money? Only the greedy. Ownership, however, is Everything.

[@AppleBloom21]

@@superblondeDotOrg yeah and on top of that the Mariah excuse was bad....she has 1-2 other ppl. Not 8-15. She keeps a large portion of her writers credit. Even Michael Jackson has a lot of songs that he only wrote and were mega hits. Its alot of hard work but it's possible.

[@brileystewart]

Bob Dylan wrote with an acoustic and his voice usually. That’s one of the 10,000 hour skills. This man is talking about these producer/songwriters trying to play every instrument themselves, instead of tryna learn piano as fast as you can; you’re better off finding a great keyboard player who has done it as long as you’ve done your “mastered” skill.

[@brileystewart]

That way you don’t have to put in 40,000 hours just to finish a song you like. I’m going back to the drawing board, starting from scratch. Playing my guitar and singing to it.
