what this is
Graph Scene is a personal, non-commercial project. It maps who named who across rap records. There is no company behind it, nothing is sold, and there are no ads.
use it however you want
Read it, share it, quote it, screenshot it, use it to win an argument. If you use the data for something public, a link back is appreciated but not demanded.
what it is not
It is not authoritative. Lyrics come from public archives that are sometimes wrong. Credits come from open catalogs that sometimes point at the wrong pressing. Names are matched by software and checked by hand, and the checking is not perfect. Do not cite it as fact in anything that matters without verifying the underlying record yourself.
the words are not mine
Lyrics, titles, cover images and artist names belong to the people who made them and the labels that own them. They appear here in short excerpts for commentary, criticism and reference. If you hold rights to something here and want it gone, ask and it is gone — no argument, no lawyer needed. Use the feedback form, or the formal route on the copyright / dmca page.
no promises
The site is provided as-is. It may be wrong, it may be down, it may change or disappear. Nothing here is a warranty and nothing here creates a liability.
corrections
Errors get fixed in the open on, including the ones that were embarrassing.
