Data Insight

This is the one Ludacris record with no writing credits on the board. The album page lists a producer for almost every track and nothing at all in the writer column, and the Discogs pressing and MusicBrainz entry are no better. The eleven songs it shares with Back for the First Time are credited on that album, which is the closest thing to an answer: on the reissued versions Ludacris is the writer.

Incognegro is Ludacris's debut, released in August 1999 on DTP Entertainment, the label he founded himself. Ludacris served as executive producer, with additional production from Jermaine Dupri, Bangladesh and Organized Noize. Eleven of its tracks were carried over to his major label debut the following year.

Frequently Asked Questions Incognegro

When did Incognegro come out?
August 17, 1999, on DTP Entertainment, the independent label Ludacris set up in Atlanta.
Why are the writing credits empty?
No published source carries them. The album page documents producers only, and neither the Discogs release nor MusicBrainz fills the gap. Rather than guess, the columns are left blank here.
Is Incognegro the same album as Back for the First Time?
No, but they overlap heavily. Def Jam South signed Ludacris after Incognegro and released a reworked version as Back for the First Time in 2000; eleven tracks carried over.
Who produced Incognegro?
Ludacris produced much of it himself as executive producer, with Jermaine Dupri, Bangladesh, Organized Noize, I-20 and Fate Wilson contributing tracks.
How many tracks are on it?
Sixteen.
Did it chart?
It reached number 179 on the Billboard 200 and number 68 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, well below anything he released afterwards.
Data note: Wikipedia, Discogs and MusicBrainz all document Incognegro's producers but none of them carries per-track writing credits, so the lyricist and composer columns are empty across the record.
