My UO order came in the mail ! Haven't opened it yet, but just got these 2 for now. Also picked up the yellow Feed The Beast , there were only 2, and I wasn't sure how long it would have to sit on the shelf to get clearance-d.

Actually bizarrely enough- there’s a lot of evidence that Britney did write on Britney jean and her+ co servaters didn’t steal credits from anyone- Myah stated she changed some of the verses.

Oh shut the….And star power without a good song is worthless. We would never hear about Beyonce, rihanna or ariana if they had to write their own songs. Their stardom is a result of hits written by talented songwriters. It takes both. Perhaps we don’t hear about songwriters cuz they are massively undervalued, case in point this very thread. And your comment

I remember there was a case with John Lennon's Imagine where Yoko claimed that she wrote that song actually?

Rihanna is notorious.
Sza’s album Ctrl originally revolved around her song ‘LouAnne Johnson’, she’s stated that Ctrl would have been complete a year earlier if she still had the song (and I think it even had a MV). Then Rihanna struck
Sza went to a writing camp for Anti but failed to write anything that she thought was of any worth, so she played LouAnne Johnson just to see how they liked it. After hearing it, they were very insistent and she was pressured into giving it up - she’s said since that it devastated her. The song became ‘Consideration’ and Rih ended up with writing credits on it, even though it was already a complete song ready for release.

When a mainstream pop singer releases a "personal" album when in reality it's all written by 5 men and produced by some mega producer

First ones that come to mind are:
Sky Ferreira and Everything is Embarrassing (She claimed she re-wrote it but then the original demo by Dev Hynes mysteriously leaked)
Avril Lavigne and Sk8er Boi (The actual writer of the song did a whole expose on his YouTube channel and said her only contribution to that song was changing the title from "Skater Boy" to "Sk8er Boi" )

Just for fun and shady mess
hope the mods don’t lock this- no hate to any artists intended- just to shine a light on the actual main writers or people who should be credited.
here’s my contribution as stolen by someone on Reddit:
Rihanna has a writing credit on same old mistakes- a cover 💀
When Bright, who also co-wrote Justin Bieber’s hit “Somebody To Love”, is asked to explain how Bieber got songwriting credit for that song (as it was originally written for Usher), Bright has no answer. “Umm… How did he get a writing credit on it?… That’s an interesting question. I don’t know.”
Beyoncé claimed on TRL she wrote Emotions. The song is actually a Bee Gees cover.
• Claimed to have written Survivor. Songwriters sued, settled out of court.
• Claimed to have written Bow Down, when the demo was near finished when she got the song. It was originally meant to go to Rihanna
• Claimed to have written Bootylicious after hearing the guitar riff somewhere. The demo was actually near complete when it got to Destiny’s Child. When the writers went to her father for explanation, they were told the public prefers to hear that their favorite artist is the one writing their hits.
• Claimed to have written Irreplaceable. Ne-Yo’s demo is near identical to the finished song. After receiving backlash for calling her out, he gave her credit for harmonising on the song.
• Claimed to have written Smash Into You. The song is actually a cover of the song Smack Into You by Jon McLaughlin.
• The melody of Drunk In Love was done by Future and the demo was sent to Beyoncé. He didn’t hear anything back and wasn’t told the song would end up on her self-titled album. He didn’t receive writing credits for the song.

Heartbreak in Stereo is.... yeah, its okay. I dont understand the hype. I know she thinks the sample songs are cool but the trend is way past done and it is not gonna be worth paying for that sample I'm SORRY Cathy.
I wouldn't get oh-so excited about this tweet getting taken down "confirming" that Heartbreak in Stereo is coming out...
This tweet was getting a ton of traction and it was not only taking away from Starfucker release, but they could get in trouble for using that sample without paying for it so they may just be trying to be safe legally before anything happened. Its better to strike it down yourself than to wait for the sample-owner to get on your neck about taking it down.
Theres so many songs from Starfucker sessions that were leaked in nearly finished condition that its safe to say, that if a Deluxe did happen, they'd just pick songs that dont require a sample in the first place. But I could be wrong.

Not Kylie unceremoniously dropping what might be the two best songs of the album (aside from the two singles) on a digital deluxe edition that is exclusive to her webstore. That's the sound we wanted from Tension!
Those better end up on streaming soon, alongside Running (!!) and Vegas Baby.

Difficult is 2021, so still within the early Starfucker sessions (although I highly doubt it was ever an album contender - she seemed to have a pretty concrete idea on the albums sound super early on).
Here are some other dates I've collected:
January 12, 2021:
Emotional
November 3, 2021:
Love Me
February 24, 2022:
Operator
March 9, 2022:
