Start with the song credits
Dori Pro’s official-video description places “Splinters” on the 2 A.M. Project Riddim. It names Problem Child as writer and Ramon “Fryktion” McDowall as producer, with recording at Sheppard Pro Studios and mixing and mastering by Precision Productions.
The selected Apple entries use a more detailed contributor roster: Ramon McDowall as composer, Shertz James and Stephenson Marshall under lyrics, and Fryktion Muzik as producer. These are the credit lists supplied by each source; the shorter video description should not be expanded into an exclusive songwriting claim.

The cruise footage has its own crew
