YEEZY’S LEGAL WOES: KANYE WEST’S BRAND ORDERED TO SHELL OUT $300K TO NYW CREATIVE DIRECTOR IN LAWSUIT SETTLEMENT.

Things can go East.
Kanye's Yeezy Stuck with a $300K Bill After Losing Lawsuit to NYC Creative Director Over Photoshoot Snafu.

Having received no response from the fashion label to court papers or legal representation, a default judgment was issued against Yeezy. This latest loss is a major hit to the fashion company’s reputation, which was already under scrutiny after facing accusations of unethical manufacturing practices in the past.

Mooney, who had agreed to the $110,000 payment for the shoot in text messages with Yeezy’s employees, delivered the final digital photos on time, but the brand allegedly only paid her $15,000. The discrepancy in payment led Mooney to file a lawsuit in December 2022, stating that Yeezy owed her nearly $100,000.
