Beefs 2012: Roscoe Dash Pens Twitter Rant over Not Being Credited on Kanye's 'Cruel Summer'

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Sep 20, 2012

Earlier this week, Kanye West's all-star G.O.O.D. Music crew released their Cruel Summer LP, which featured a ballooned roster of talent including Big Sean, Common, R. Kelly, Jay-Z, Ghostface Killah, 2 Chainz and Pusha T, among others. It turns out one dude's name may have accidentally been left off the credits, though. At least, so says Atlanta rapper Roscoe Dash.

A series of tweets that Dash posted today (September 20) claim that he didn't get his just due for assisting West on the album.

"Everybody go get the G.O.O.D album and listen to #1 then watch@kanyewest interview http://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/video.php?v=wshh8j7a0N2QaLcHwAH9 … & tell me y I'm not on the credits."

A later tweet has Dash asserting you can still hear him on the R. Kelly-assisted Cruel Summer number "To the World." "if u listen close my adlibs are STILL in the song," he wrote.

"Can't do favors for niggas bcuz no matter how humble and generous u r to ppl niggas will take everything u have ... Even niggas u look up to," he complained of the alleged whitewashing of his contributions.

West has yet to respond to Dash's claims.

Dash also delivered a critique of Wale, saying that the Maybach Music Group rapper also forgot to give Dash credit for his single "Lotus Flower Bomb," stating, "I wrote that for him b4 he even signed to Ross & it went #1….but nobody would kno that cuz I'm not in the credits."

Dash later clarified that he wrote the hook, not Wale's verses.

His most recent mixtape, 2.0, was released last month.
