Not even have the idea of the song. I think it's desperate to do everything you can to get your name on writing credits so you can boast about it.

I understand and agree with you totally but you're basing your opinion on a thought that you assume she is doing it JUST for a songwriting label. She never even boasts about being this "amazing untouchable songwriter". Again those are your own ideas and thoughts on the situation. People need to stop going on a subject they have no idea about. No one in this thread is a songwriter working with her. Nor are we Beyoncé.

The woman who's worth $500M, runs her OWN company.The second highest annual earning female artist of ALL time with $115M. What company do you own again?

These types need to understand that haters have infiltrated every industry and neighborhood. Just because they quack with their beak doesn't mean they are saying anything worth your time.

I don't understand how one person can have so many allegations about her songwriting if there wasn't actually an issue. It's probably true, very sad.
I don't blame her though, it's a smart way to advance your career, and she's obviously all for that

I don't need Google, I stan 
But just to entertain you, I did and this is the first thing that came up:
Carey Wins Suit Over "Stolen" Song
^ which was a suit started over similar melody. Never about her stealing credits, or having a ghostwriter.
The only instance involving lyrics was:

"Hero" was the subject of copyright plagiarism case by Christopher Selletti, filed in 1993. Selletti claimed he had written the song's lyrics in the form of a poem. One day, as he drove Sly Stone in a limousine to Long Island, he claimed to have shown him the poem. Selletti claimed Stone complimented the poem, taking it and promising to patent it and earn him royalties. After many months, the pair fell out of contact, leading Selletti to mail himself the envelope and poem, performing a "poor man's copyright." Three years later in 1996, he claimed to have listened to Carey's album Music Box and was shocked when he noted the song's similar lyrics. He filed a lawsuit against Carey, Stone, Sony and Stone's manager Jerry Goldstein. Selletti claimed that Stone must have sold or contributed the lyrics to Carey during the recording of the album in late 1992. However, since Stone did not receive songwriting credits on "Hero", Selletti then dropped the suit against Stone, leaving him against Carey and Sony.
Prior to their court room meeting, Carey told New York Daily News "I feel totally victimized. 'Hero' is my creation and it holds a very special meaning to me. I have every intention of fighting this all the way." In court, Carey provided evidence to her innocence, in the form of a dated lyrical and music notebook, with conceptual info on the song dated back to November 20, 1992, prior to Selletti's meeting with Stone. Additionally, Carey stated the fact that she had originally written it for the film Hero alongside Afanasieff, making their connection or the involvement of his material impossible. Judge Denny Chin found Carey innocent, and ordered Selletti to pay her a fine.

Maybe there's some truth in this, but still, why come for Beyoncé?

How is this is an allegation when it's clearly her opinion? That's the difference between an allegation and talking out your ass. This woman has nothing to base her thoughts on other than haters and their constant attack on Bey and her character. So you can say all these "allegations" but most are completely uniformed BS and are basing their opinion on what they have heard. Which is what you see constantly on ATRL.

Even though she mentioned Beyoncé by name, she said that we would be surprised that a lot of the artists who claim to write their own stuff, actually purchase songs from songwriters. None of this is really surprising. Pop stars are more business moguls than artists. Even Beyoncé's own father said that everyone wants to believe that the artists does everything and that is the nature of the business. It's pretty obvious that pop stars receive songs after they've been written, make a minor change, and get credit. Let's not be naďve

Another day, another thread where Beyoncé haters run in and turn others assumptions into facts because they're too stupid and naive to use any sort of logic.

Mariah was accused of stealing Emotions. My point was people have accused them of stealing as well. Not saying she did, point being she and Madonna have been accused of it. No biggie.
