Kreayshawn’s "Gucci Gucci" co-writer says he still eats Spam for dinner

by Nicole Villeneuve

California rapper Kreayshawn blew up seemingly overnight earlier this year, thanks primarily to her viral hit “Gucci Gucci”, the song that reportedly landed her a $1 million record deal and Twitter beefs with lotsa big stars. Now, a man named Speak who claims to have co-written the song with her is saying he hasn’t received a dime from the hit and still eats Spam for dinner.

“That’s the weird thing,” Speak told L.A. Weekly, “seeing someone become rich overnight and getting to do all the cool things that come with being a successful artist, knowing you had a part in that, but eating Spam for dinner.”

It doesn’t seem as though he’s seeking payment, either; just musing on the workings of the business. Read the full profile on Speak over here.
