How can Diane Warren, a songwriter, not know how credits work? 

I guess if she writes only her songs she's never had to sample any thus not knowing how they work but it does seem like commen sense lol so I agree 

Also I wish if people were gonna stand up for something like if song wiritng is passionate to her then stand by what you said. It's not like she doesn't have the credibility to back up the **** she is talking. I cringe when people back down if you realized you were wrong then say that but don't back peddle

She shouldn't have apologized since it only makes the Hive feel like they have influence. She should've either ignored them or told them to **** off. I would've done the latter, personally.

She made a great point originally; even if some of the songwriters are only given credit for sampling reasons, that's still an absurd amount of people involved in the process of creating one song that isn't even that complex or good tbh. :gimmemoar_britney_hat_more_gimme_giggle_haha_hehe_lol_2007_vmas_lmao:

They accused her of racism. She had to apologise for the sake of her career unfortunately.
