While Wayne does not use ghostwriters or have much help coming up with his rhymes, he rarely writes anything down. The rapper claims that he has not written down a single bar since 2002. Similar to another hip-hop legend Jay-Z, Wayne feels like writing down his bars dilutes the process and makes it less authentic. So, he comes up with all his lyrics on his own without the help of other rappers or songwriters. But he typically freestyles off the top of his head and doesn’t see the need to put pen to paper.
