Original songwriters of "No Scrubs" were given copyright credits in ASCAP more than two months after the release of "Shape of You." Many have made comparisons between the melody in the pre-chorus of "Shape of You" and the main hook in the chorus "No Scrubs" since Ed Sheeran's track was first released in January 2017.
