B.I finally credited for not 1 but 2 songs from Eun Ji Won's album

Back on June 27th after hearing track #4 of YG Entertainment's Eun Ji Won's latest album, iKONICS discovered that the song "Worthless" sounded very much like a song they had heard before for both the melody and the lyrics. Indeed, it had been a song B.I had played for them back in December 2017 during a Vlive.  iKONICS then trended #CreditHanbin and YGE released a statement that they would do so as the album credits omitted his name.

Fast forward almost 3 months later and the album is finally on KOMCA (Korean Music Copyright Association). As it was long overdue, many had found it suspicious.  Those suspicions proved to be warranted as B.I actually had a second song credited to him as lyricist and composer, track #3 on Eun Ji Won's album called "Sexy" which YGE failed to mention when they were called out for "Worthless"

Many fans knowing B.I's style had suspected the song to be his:

As YGE will only acknowledge proper song credits if it's called out by fans, it makes you wonder which other songs out of YGE, past and future, have the proper credits.

  1. B.I
  2. Eun Ji Won

Honestly, it was so obvious that YG never wanted to credit him. Since his name wasn't even on the credit list on ejw physical album that was printed in early 2019.

Still can’t get over how they did him... Super talented song writer AND performer. So young and more or less raised by YG. And then goodbye 😡

Yes he made a mistake but couldn’t they have supported him so he didn’t have to (possibly) resort to such methods?? And what is going to happen to ikon?????
