The music world is in a spiraling mess after a man, only identified as ‘Skee’, came forward and said he was a major contributor to several of the hit songs on rising rapper Sexyy Red’s album who has yet to be paid or receive credit for. Skee, who posted his grievances publicly on social media, insists that he was evidently integral to many of Sexyy Red’s biggest cuts to date, yet he was neither rightly credited nor compensated for those contributions.
With such grave accusations, neither Sexyy Red nor her management has spoken up. At this moment, little can be ascertained about the details of Skee’s involvement even in the making of the disputed songs, let alone if some sort of agreement existed between the two. His revelation has launched a fierce debate on the net, though, as debates over what this development might mean to either party emanate from fans and critics alike.

Sexyy Red, born Janae Nierah Wherry, has taken the hip-hop industry by storm over the past year. Songs like “Pound Town” and “SkeeYee” are a couple of the standout songs that have popped up on her résumé. While “Pound Town” is raw-lyric-ed and unapologetically, perhaps what keeps the track a summer anthem-“SkeeYee” furthers her standing as one of those daredevil artists in the hip-hop genre. These singles, full of catchy hooks and signature phrases, have made her much talked about on social media and through the streaming arena, where her unique vocals and character have cut through.
Skee alleges that he contributed significantly to the songwriting process of these tracks, although details about which songs specifically, and the extent of his involvement, remain vague. With no official statements or documentation surfacing from either party, the public is left to speculate about the legitimacy of his claims.
Yet, no court filings and no formal disputes have been publicly disclosed, and many have fallen into speculation about whether this issue will be litigated in courts or remain as is in the public domain. Without a judicial resolution, it’s not clear how or if-Skee might pursue reparations for or acknowledgment of his purported contribution.
