Kanye West Sued Over Skid Row Video


Two years ago Kanye West went to a mission on Skid Row in Los Angeles and gave a speech about God wanting him and Kim Kardashian back together [click here if you missed that].

Now Ye is being sued for distributing the video without permission...

Kanye West has been dragged to federal court by a volunteer at the Los Angeles Mission which the rapper visited in 2021.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, a man named Elijah Graham has filed a lawsuit against West for copyright infringement.
Graham said he is an “event planner volunteer” for the non-profit that helps provide meals, hot showers and safe shelter for the homeless.
In his suit, Graham said West showed up at the Los Angeles Mission for a Thanksgiving event on November 24, 2021.
Graham said he filmed a video of West speaking at the event.
He said West somehow obtained his video and used it to advertise his fashion brand and music. “Defendant profits from these activities,” the lawsuit read.
The suit claimed, “[West], without permission or authorization from [Graham], actively copied and/or displayed [Graham’s] video on the Account and engaged in this misconduct knowingly and in violation of the United States copyright laws.”
He said West’s using the footage resulted in him being unable to sell the material — since it was no longer exclusive.
The volunteer has demanded unspecified damages from West.

Karma is relentless and it's coming for Ye.

Boy when it rains it pours. Donda didn’t prepare him for the real world. She spoiled that ninja which effed his mind up. After her death, it made matters worse
