Diane Warren recently threw shade at Beyoncé while talking about her Renaissance album. Warren, who is a songwriter herself, pointed out how Queen Bey’s new album has songs that were written by too many writers.
Fans were angry after she made the comments. Producer, The-Dream, chimed in further to call out Warren on the allegations she made against Beyoncé. What was Warren’s reply to The-Dream? Let’s find out.
The Feud Between Diane Warren And The-Dream
Diane Warren who wrote songs for singers like Cher and Celine Dion made a comment on Beyoncé. She tweeted on Monday “How can there be 24 writers on a song?” In a second tweet, she wrote, “This isn’t meant as shade, I’m just curious.” (And went on to clarify she “meant no disrespect to @Beyonce, who I’ve worked with and admire.)”
The-Dream, who has great contribution to the majority of songs in Renaissance, replied to Warren’s tweet. He wrote, “You mean how’s does our (Black) culture have so many writers, well it started because we couldn’t afford certain things starting out, so we started sampling and it became an Artform, a major part of the Black Culture (hip hop) in America. Had that era not happen who knows. U good?”
He continued, “Btw I know it’s not a one on one writing contest you looking for from no one over here……you don’t want that smoke And you know I love you, but come on. Stop acting like your records haven’t been sampled.”
