Someone said: ‘Producers and writers will sample things and not tell the artist or label that they have done so. Sometimes they feel like they didn’t take enough of whatever they sampled for it to be an issue. Sometimes they get by and sometimes they don’t. Not sure what happened in this case but i know CB has no problem clearing samples. He cleared MJ which is the hardest to clear! Hope it all works out.’
