DO YOU LIKE THE SONGS OR NOT?: CyHi The Prynce’s Alleged Reference Tracks For Travis Scott’s “Astroworld” Leak Causing Folks to Accuse Travis of Having a “Ghostwriter”

CyHi The Prynce has credits on four songs on “Astroworld” including “SICKO MODE” and “COFFEE BEAN.”

Astroworld may have been one of Travis Scott’s biggest projects to date, but just like his mentor Kanye West, it’s no secret that he enlists many songwriters and producers to help bring his vision to life on every project. 2018’s Astroworld had a slew of collaborators from major names like Drake and The Weeknd to up-and-coming talent, and everything in between.

CyHi The Prynce’s name is scattered across the tracklist for Astroworld. At the wee hours of the morning, alleged reference tracks “SICKO MODE” and “COFFEE BEAN” including CyHi The Prynce’s vocals surfaced on social media this morning, per HHNM. CyHi does, however, have writing credits on four songs off of Astroworld including the previously mentioned singles, along with “STARGAZING” and “5% TINT.”

It’s been nearly three years since CyHi The Prynce released No Dope On Sundays but in the year that followed, he amassed some major writing credits. Not only on Astroworld but also on Kanye West’s ye. CyHi’s pen has been one of the strongest out of the G.O.O.D Music camp and it’s been proven on his solo work as well as his collaborative efforts, as we can see.

Despite the fact that a ghostwriter wouldn’t be credited (as CyHi is) somehow the internet has sparked a debate after attempts were made to “expose” Travis in this situation. Take a look below and let us know what you think?

Word around the street is that CyHi The Prynce singlehandedly wrote most of Travis Scott's hit songs off of Astroworld 👀

Some snippets of his Astroworld reference tracks leaked. This one is for Sicko Mode.

1.) We already knew Cyhi pen works he's written for Kanye for years.

2.) We already knew travis had writers Tory Lanez told us that.

3.) Cyhi barely drops music so we know he's got some clients.

Gotcha Twitter is trying to out Travis Scott for using CyHi as a ghostwriter but here's the thing: CyHi is credited as a writer. He can't be a ghost when it's out in the open. Travis, like his mentor Kanye, has been working with writers his entire career. https://t.co/sCcAAzaMy9

I dont see the problem with travis scott getting cyhi to write some shit for him. Travis is a genius, as well as cyhi. Travis isnt aiming to be on anybodies top 5 lyricists list. Cyhi is one of the best bar 4 bar niggas alive. But cant take away how genius travis is. Ever

So Cyhi Da Prince wrote Sick Mode and Coffee bean for Travis Scott. And that's just to name a few. I'm not mad at Travis. He never claimed to be "last name Ever, first name Greatest" … but I will get mad when Cyhi drops an album and people act like they don't hear his genius.

Yo know how much money Cyhi The Prince is making ghostwriting😳 I would take that. As for Travis Scott I never looked at him as that type of super lyrical rapper anyway so I'm not surprised.
