I think he just loves rap and can't stand how wack it is when he comes up with things himself. Loads of singers sings songs they didn't write themselves, and he's a singer at heart, so he probably doesn't see anything wrong with it.

Rap is fundamentally different and a lot of the point is supposed to be you expressing who you are personally, no matter how rough (ahem, odb) it sounds. Biebz doesn't get that yet, apparently.

Plus his nose is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

yeah cashman the other part is, (although ghostwriting is probably rampant and it doesn't really mean a song is more significant if you wrote it yourself), if you're a singer at least there's a talent there, or a guitarist or something... but with rap you're not laying down the music, and you're not writing down the words, then what are you doing? Just saying them in rhythm..

If you don't write the words yourself, it's just a poetry reading set to music?

Primo keeps it real.
