Amy Winehouse Slams Producer Mark Ronson On Twitter

Soul singer and hedonist extraordinaire Amy Winehouse has criticised Mark Ronson, in an outburst on her Twitter account. She wrote about her former producer, saying: "Ronson you're dead to me; one album I write and you take half the credit – make a career out of it? Don’t think so BRUV."
The outburst may have been provoked by Ronson’s appearance on ‘Later...with Jools Holland’ last night, where he spoke briefly about his role as producer on her hugely successful album, ‘Back to Black’: “She would come to me with just a song and an acoustic guitar...then you kind of dream up the rhythm arrangement and the track around it.”
Since the release of ‘Back to Black’, Winehouse has been central to a torrent of press attention, where there has been much speculation as to her substance abuse and mental health problems. The singer has also been linked to a number of legal issues, including being charged for common assault and disorderly behaviour earlier this year.
Winehouse has been working on the follow-up release to ‘Back to Black’ with producer Salaam Remi, stating that the album will be released in January next year at the very latest.
Winehouse and Ronson have also recently recorded a cover of Lesley Gore's ‘It's My Party’, which was provisionally scheduled for a release in November this year, although that may now be less than likely after this morning’s outburst.
