If he didn't want it on Al's album, then why did he give Al permission to record it in the first place? what did he think Al was going to do with the song?
And if he thinks it's bad for his career, or whatever, then why did he let the Kidz Bop singers record it?
Strange cookie, this Blunt, and not strange in a good way.
Less than 1 week until the Al-bum comes out!

This is almost a bit like what happend between Al and Eminem, when Al wanted to do a parody of Eminem's song "Lose Yourself", for the album Poodle Hat. Only in that case Eminem had no problem with the parody song (Couch Potato), but started making noise when Al wanted to make a music video for the parody song.
I guess some artists just don't have a sense of humor
