YG Entertainment explains why B.I wasn't given composer credit for Eun Ji Won's 'Worthless'

YG Entertainment explained why B.I wasn't given the credit for participating in composing Eun Ji Won's track "Worthless" from his recent album 'G1'.

After hearing the track, fans noticed "Worthless" was the same melody and beat former iKON member B.I previewed during a V Live broadcast. YG Entertainment confirmed, "'Worthless' is a song co-composed by B.I and Millennium."

The label continued, "B.I's name wasn't included on the tracklist itself because of a personal request from him, but he'll be registered to the Korean Music Copyright Association as the co-composer." 

As previously reported, B.I withdrew from YG Entertainment and iKON following his drug scandal.

For once I do think their explanation makes sense. It's actually quite noble for B.I to do so, from his perspective including his name on the album could hurt JiWon and people would keep associating his promotions with the ongoing scandal.

I hope people just let this one go and support both artists's work.

I hope iKON leaves YG and reunites with B.I under a different label.
