Popular musician Kim Han-bin, also known as B.I is professional rapper, singer-songwriter, producer and former leader of the boy group iKon. The group has established a pretty solid fanbase called the ‘IKONICS’.

Recently, an issue spurred and got to people’s attention when fans claimed that YG Entertainment failed to credit Hanbin for his work.

There has been various reactions on Twitter, mostly from the artist’s side defending his right for his work.

The hashtag #CreditHanbin is currently on the list of Twitter trending hashtags.

Twitter User @06251822_ shared opinions on the platform saying:

“If they dont want Hanbins name to affect the release of the song then why use it at all? It was Hanbins own experience, it was Hanbin brain, it was Hanbin work. No matter what you do it was his. If you cannot respect him as a human at least respect him as an artist.”

Another fan also expressed disappointment towards the recent news:

“This needs to go viral for people to see how they did Hanbin dirty. My man suffered enough and we all can’t just sit back and cry. This is war.” – Twitter user @sirkjh

That is all there is to it, at least for now. We’ll post updates as soon as we got them.
