The guy in the above picture is a rapper named “Speak”. He claims that he wrote the song Gucci Gucci for Kreashawn which was one of this years unexpected hits…but the problem is…He claims he isnt getting paid! Check out some of his LA Weekly interview!
L.A. Weekly. “Seeing someone become rich overnight and getting to do all the cool things that come with being a successful artist, knowing you had a part in that, but eating Spam for dinner.”
An up and coming rapper himself, Speak says he was surprised to find out that Kreayshawn didn’t know how to properly structure a song.
“I told her to drop 16 on a song, and she was like, ‘Uh, what do you mean?’ So we sat down and hammered it out,” he says. “I taught her how to con-ceptualize and structure lines and put a filter on all the craziness.”
Speak is currently working with Plies and No Doubt on their upcoming albums and plans to drop his own free mixtape, Inside Out Boy on November 14. The project is being mixed by Odd Future’s Syd tha Kid.
So…this really brings a lot of new questions to the table….
