And I never said The Beatles wrote every single song they sang, but they wrote most of them and on their classic albums all of them. And I don't care if someone performed on stage since they were 5 or not. Most artists are not in complete control of their image at the start, that develops later often.

Thats a BIG fat lie. Where are they not known for being songwriters? They both have written for other artists as well as their own material. They have received accolades for their songwriting.
No artists writes 100 percent all their music so I dont understand why you feel the need to keep bringing that arguement up. Stevie Wonder wrote 99.9 percent of his music and he is very well known in the industry for being a great songwriter and I am quite sure you know this you just want for some reason to make yourself look foolish
Stevie is one of the greatest songwriters ever so who told you that lie about him not being known for it? Or are you just biased to black artists in general and seemed to cant give props but only to white bands and what white American has brainwashed into making you believe? Just because Stevie covered ONE song doesnt mean anything. Majority of the songs that he has sung he has WRITTEN HIMSELF not to mention he PLAYS all the percussion and instruments in his music. He plays over 20 instruments. While the Beatles are known for their popular songs during their era, Michael as well as Stevie are much known for writing their own songs than the Beatles. The ONLY Beatle that gets that credit is John Lennon and Paul individually Ive never heard of "The Beatles" as a group getting that credit.
