ghostwrite the 'script 

Ghostwriting a scientific manuscript (e.g., one to be published in a major medical journal). A play on the phrase "ghostride the whip" popularized by hip hop culture from the San Francisco Bay Area.
Executive from big pharma: "How can we present the data from our new drug study in a credible, impartial light?"
Ghostwriter: "I'll ghostwrite the 'script, negotiate with a highly regarded physician for authorship, and submit it to the New England Journal of Medicine."

Ghostwriter 

A famous song by the rapper Mad Skillz (now renamed Skillz). In that song, he says he had written lyrics for many "artists"
(such as P. Diddy, Jermaine Dupri, Will Smith, Mase etc.) as a ghostwriter and never get paid for his writing talents ! The song have the names censored, but in a live show Skillz reveals the names of motherf*ckers who don't gave the cash to the real author of "their" rhymes.

ghostwriter 

The literary equivalent of the fat old guys who sang on the Milli Vanilli records. In other words, a writer who writes under someone else's name with their consent. The so-called author gets his or her name printed on the cover and receives credit for the writing while the ghostwriter does the actual work.

Celebrity and politician autobiographies are usually ghostwritten, due to the "author" having no writing talent whatsoever. What, you think Jenna Jameson and Hillary Clinton actually wrote their books?

Ghostwriters are also disturbingly common in fiction, not that anyone gives a rat's ass that Tom Clancy doesn't actually write his crappy novels.
Even if you think Harry Potter sucks, the author at least deserves credit for actually writing the books instead of hiring a ghostwriter.
