He probably didn’t write much of the early 80s stuff but I know he wrote “Ordinary World” which is their GOATUS song

yeah Ordinary World is 180000000 so I will give him that.

Look up Niles Rodger's song credit list some time. Its mind blowing, going on multiple decades up to recently. Dude even wrote Like a Virgin by Madonna, and a bunch of Daft Punk hits

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nile_Rodgers

Formed as the Big Apple Band in 1972 with bassist Bernard Edwards,[3][4] Chic released their self-titled debut album in 1977; it featured the hit singles "Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah)" and "Everybody Dance". The 1978 album C'est Chic included "I Want Your Love" and "Le Freak", with the latter selling more than seven million singles worldwide. The song "Good Times" from the 1979 album Risqué was a number one single on the pop and soul charts, and became one of the most-sampled songs of all time, predominantly in hip-hop, starting with the Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight".[5][6]

With Edwards, Rodgers wrote and produced music for other artists, including the songs "He's the Greatest Dancer" and "We Are Family" (for Sister Sledge) and "I'm Coming Out" and "Upside Down" (for Diana Ross).[7] After Chic's breakup in 1983, Rodgers produced albums and singles for other artists, including David Bowie's Let's Dance; "Original Sin" by INXS; Duran Duran's "The Reflex" and "Notorious"; and Madonna's Like a Virgin.[8] He also worked with artists including Kylie Minogue, Nervo, Jake Shears, the B-52s, Keith Urban, Jeff Beck, Avicii, Kygo, Daft Punk, Mick Jagger, Coldplay, Grace Jones, the Vaughan Brothers, Bryan Ferry, Christina Aguilera, Lady Gaga, Benjamin Ingrosso and Beyoncé. He won three Grammy Awards in 2014 for his work on Daft Punk's Random Access Memories,[9][10] and two in 2023 for his work with Beyoncé on her album Renaissance. In 2018, Rodgers co-founded Hipgnosis Songs Fund, a publicly traded music intellectual property investment company.

Yeah one of the biggest problems with getting Like A Virgin finished was that Nile partied until dawn every day so recording couldn’t start until the afternoon.

his publicly traded IP fund was a disaster and had so many problems that Blackstone ended up buying it for pennies on the dollar

He was only in the band for a couple albums. Not part of the original classic DD lineup.

He came on board halfway through recording Notorious (1986) and officially joined fulltime in 1989. Left in 2001.

That’s 15 years and he is on a large amount of their best music.

That's all after their period of cultural relevance and those albums mostly sucked.
