He has written for the likes of hip hop heavyweights Future, 21 Savage, Timbaland, Rick Ross, Gucci Mane, DJ Khaled, Bow Wow and more.

As Neighbourhood Talk report, a family member claims that the relationship between Wright and Bibbs was riddled with emotional abuse. “They were dating and Justin manipulated & controlled her, she was trying to leave,” the family member said.
In a comment under one of J. Wight’s Instagram posts, they wrote: “You took her to Iowa and killed her on Mother’s Day, you threatened to kill my daughter also a few ago in ATL. You brainwashed & manipulated my cousin and tried to turn her against us. I hate she loved you, I hate she ever met you.”
