Taio Cruz was told by his record company to stop writing so many hit songs for other artists, because he should be saving them for himself.
Taio Cruz's record label wants him to stop writing so many hits.
The producer-and-singer - who penned recent UK number one single 'Never Leave You', which was recorded by Tinchy Stryder featuring Amelle Berrabah - has revealed his bosses have been getting angry with him for writing so many tracks for other artists.
He told BANG Showbiz: "I kept writing them and the record company kept shouting at me because I kept giving all the songs away.
"I'm not really precious like that. I started off as a songwriter and producer so I'm happy to write songs and happy for them to be out, whether it's me singing or somebody else."
Taio - who has also worked with Leona Lewis, JLS and Will Young - thinks it makes sense for him to give some songs away if it means they will get more exposure.
The 24-year-old star added: "I want them to be hugely successful, so if that means someone else has to sing it, then fine. If it's a case of shall I give it to Britney Spears or shall I do it myself, well I think, at the moment, I'm big in the UK, Britney is big worldwide, so..."
