I like Lana Del Rey's Born To Die but I dislike her new album Ultraviolence

Born to Die had more variety of styles than in Ultraviolence

There is a specific difference between a songwriting and a producer credit though.


This might be the case for some artists but this is not the case for ALL artists.

Some singers have no control over what constitutes as a songwriting credit or a production credit if they are not writing or producing majority of the song themselves.


In some cases, that is up to the label or the production/songwriting team. Some singers just go in and sing the song without changing anything and even if they want to change something(for some artists under certain circumstances) they still can't. It depends on how much clout the artist has in the industry and if the other producers or songwriters wants to share their credits with the singer.

It can get pretty political and complicated.


I think so too.... but we were talking about what constitutes as a songwriting credit versus a production credit.

But the Rolling Stones are a band and they also write their own music whether all the band mates do it together or separately. There are some mates that write portions of the song separately and the other mate completes the song on their own time. You do not necessarily have to sit and write the song together in the same room.


They don't have a songwriting team that writes songs for them so they can do that because they write their own songs.



Right, although they might be a producer, a producer can get a songwriting credit because they also did something that falls under the songwriting credit category.

These credits are specified as specific things for a reason.


That's fine for bands who right their own music



If it was a grey issue than it would simply say "credits" behind the back of CD covers and not songwriters, producers, arrangers etc.

I understand it is different depending on the artist, singer or band but these are specific specified things/

The skill qualifications for a songwriter is different from a producer. So there titles are not shades of grey because they are specific and they require specific skills.

So what constitute a songwriter credit versus a producer credit is going to be different.

Korn is good and not just the old stuff but the new.

I'm really digging 'Never Never'. Really tastefully done dubstep, subtle and accented the song well. Introspective song.

...They play Dubstep now? Did they just randomly follow whatever trend was popular or do they genuinely love Nu Metal and Dubstep? I wonder...

What sort of music would you guess this is - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QutJS4mEUhM

Sounds like a Latin soundtrack with a bit of suspense and mystery to it.

How would you compare it to old-school dubstep?

If you could send a video link, I can tell you my opinion. The only dubstep I really know is that 'worble' dubstep you hear today.
