Yesterday, Casey Dienel, the musician who records as White Hinterland, filed a lawsuit against Justin Bieber and Skrillex over Bieber's 2015 hit "Sorry." In the lawsuit, Dienel claimed the song duplicates “the specific and unique characteristics of the female vocal riff” from her 2014 song “Ring the Bell.” She also said she had been ignored by Bieber's legal team after initially contacting him about the sample in December. Today, TMZ caught up with Diplo, who has collaborated with Skrillex and Bieber, to ask him about the lawsuit.

Diplo told TMZ he wasn't familiar with the particulars, noting, "I thought they sampled it, but I thought they cleared it." Pointing out how many people worked on the song, he said it "must have been an oversight," and that "somebody added it and then didn't tell anybody." (He also called White Hinterland "pretty dope.")

He then compared it to his work producing Beyoncé's "All Night," where he noted that horns resembling OutKast's "SpottieOttieDopaliscious" had been added to the song, and that the group needed to be credited. "I told them, and then we had to give OutKast 25% of the record, which kinda sucks for me, but whatever, you gotta pay," he said. He concluded: "I'm sure they'll work out a deal with her. They don't want to go to court with it."
