Kanye West Slams Hostile Workspace Lawsuit As Non-Factual In Move To Get It Tossed

Kanye: Ye West He will not remain silent as serious accusations swirl around his Yeezy brand.

Ye’s legal team demands that they throw cases of hostile workspaces be denounced, without fact, without merit. The lawsuit filed by some adults and teens who worked with Nishi during the production of his last studio album, demands $1 million in damages.

The controversy began when a group of young creatives claimed that they had endured a hostile work environment under Kanye “Ye” westward.

Ye’s fashion empire is clapping hard at a group of teenage collaborators’ lawsuits. They don’t just drop the lawsuit. They argue that the cases are built on facts.

In a new court filing, Yeezy requires plaintiffs to cover legal costs for the brand. YE’s legal team claims there is no evidence in the claim and is trying to unfairly lock the company into liability for actions allegedly taken by unrelated individuals.

“Instead, the complaint relies on the alleged conclusions and seeks to hold Yeezy LLC liable for any conduct allegedly committed by another person or entity without establishing any facts or legal basis for doing so,” the filing said.

In a document obtained by Intouch, Yeezy’s attorney argued that the lawsuit could not provide a direct link between the plaintiff and the company. The lawyer also said, “The defendant alleges that the plaintiff has prohibited certain claims and agreed to the terms and conditions of the work.”

In December 2024, the explosion revealed that former collaborators, including four teenage and adult plaintiffs Shemale Dacosta, Foroso Mofoken, Miles Jackson Lee and Orakunlu Oratunji, had sought a default judgment on the Yeezy brand and demanded $1 million in damages.

The group claimed it was brought to help develop the streaming app associated with Ye’s Vulture 2 album, but instead found themselves in a toxic environment plagued by harassment and inappropriate content.

Plaintiffs reportedly allegedly alleged abuse based on their race and sexual orientation. They further accused Ye’s ex-wife, Bianca Sensori of distributing explicit files related to the adult film project he allegedly planned.

The plaintiff’s lawsuit states that “guardrails were not introduced to prevent minor YzyVSN workers from working on Yeezy porn or to prevent them from being forced to watch porn to do their work.”

The company reportedly ignored a bomb lawsuit accusing teenage workers of exploiting them, and the plaintiffs fought back in search of a default ruling worth $2.4 million.

Each plaintiff demanded $300,000 in damages, but the lawyers demanded compensation for unpaid wages, emotional trauma and punitive damages.

The lawyers accused Yeezy of alleged misconduct, cautiously accusing him of “recruiting minors” and “exposed to minors, abusive working conditions and refused to pay for their work.”

The legal team argued that punitive damages were required to punish Yeezy and prevent similar treatment of future workers.

Ye and his former chief of staff, Milo Iannopoulos, were appointed as the driving force behind the exploitative work environment that allegedly emitted the teenage developer emotionally and financially.

The group claimed that they had completed the streaming app for Ye’s Vulture 2 rollout and had been promised $120,000 if they “accepted working conditions” without objection.

Despite meeting the deadline on May 24, 2024, the team claimed Yeezy was ghosted and not compensated.

Instead, the teens also alleged that they were pressured to sign a threatened NDA and later forced to sign a “volunteer” contract, and waived their salaries entirely.

Working remotely, the group regularly updated Ye and Yiannopoulos via Slack and other platforms.

In the ongoing legal drama, Yiannopoulos has resigned as Ye’s chief of staff and distanced himself towards Yeezy’s adult content.

The explosion reported that his resignation was not directly linked to hostile workplace lawsuits, but rather to a new venture of stars into the porn industry.

In his formal resignation letter, he revealed that contributing to adult material, as a recovery addict and former gay, has posed a “immediate risk” in his life.

Expressing his hopes for Ye’s future efforts, Yiannopoulos also expressed skepticism about the rapper’s new team, urging him to move forward.

He also left the possibility of returning and said he would be willing to serve again if the company “publicly and permanently” removed its adult content ambitions.

With both sides being delved into it, the question is whether Kanye “Ye” West will leave unharmed, or whether this lawsuit will ultimately break the basis for his empire.
