Question

❌what is difference bw lyricist and songwriter ????????❌

Answer 1

The best way to distinguish between a songwriter and a lyricist is to look at the root terms.

Song = a combination of words and music (rhythm, melody, harmony) arranged for singing.

Lyrics = the words that make up a song or a poem.

Right away, you can see that a song has more to it than mere lyrics. As such, one who identifies as a lyricist is a person who comes up with words that can be used in the creation of a song. The songwriter, on the other hand, not only writes the lyrics, but also comes up with the accompanying melody that the words will be sung to.

Hope it helps❤️
