Ghostwriting for Detox

Ghostwriting is nothing new to hip-hop. Some of your favorite artists don't even write their music. From P. Diddy to Elton John, not everything you hear is written by he who says it. I'm not sure if Dr. Dre had others ghostwrite for him back in his N.W.A. days, but now, in light of his upcoming release Detox, a number of leaked tracks hit the internet with T.I. and Eminem citing Dre's verses. The latest leak off of the album titled Topless hit the net around two weeks ago with T.I. and Nas performing the verses and Dre on the hook. The first time I listened to it I wondered why T.I. was rapping about a beef with Lil Eazy-E (son of the late Eric Wright A.K.A. Eazy-E) and talking so highly about Dre and not himself... then it hit me. Topless is a good track none the less, now I wonder if Dre will sound as good as T.I. while flowing and reciting the exact same words.

Check out the track Topless which will one day be Dr. Dre featuring Nas. Until then check out T.I.
