I’m honestly confused, I thought maybe songwriting isn’t her thing, but she literally wrote Think, so no way she’s bad at it in my opinion. Did she just not like writing music that much or did people doubt her abilities? I looked it up, and according to this website: (https://secondhandsongs.com/artist/10/works) she only wrote 18 songs that she performed herself, and 2 songs for others. According to this discogs link (https://www.discogs.com/artist/38863-Aretha-Franklin) she has vocals on 127 songs, so obviously writing only 18 songs out of 127 isn’t much. I really love Aretha Franklin and her music, so I’m just curious about what others think about this. Maybe her label didn’t want her writing many things for whatever reason? I know some artists have labels that like to restrict them. I honestly have no idea, only numerous guesses with no evidence to back them up, so please share your thoughts.
