For @postmalone, songwriting is a numbers game. He sings over beats until a melody clicks, then writes lyrics down and repeats the process. Sometimes you have to make a hundred songs to find the ones worth keeping. Is quantity the key to quality? 1/3 👇

.@2Pac had no time for procrastination. While making “All Eyez on Me,” his goal was three songs a day. He’d freestyle in the moment, capture ideas while they were fresh, then refine the lyrics later. Was 2pac's raw, instinctive writing style what ultimately made him an icon?

A good lyric can make you see the world from a completely different point of view. For @sanbenito, his own life is the starting point, but not always the destination. From one perspective to another, can you write an authentic story you haven’t lived? 🤔

Friday's Charts have entered a new era, just like MILEY 📈 "Bass Persuades" kicks off @miley’s latest chapter at No. 1, ahead of her upcoming album. @stellalefty is also back in the charts with "Boston." Is it the nepo-baby talk or the Noah Kahan interpolation behind it?

Why do the simplest sounds become the most memorable hooks? Is “la-la-la” universal? Instantly singable? Or just impossible to forget? From “Hey Jude” to “All the Small Things,” we all know those hooks by heart. So, is “la-la-la” inevitable in every songwriter’s catalog?
