Kanye West’s Former Teen Employees Demand Over $1 Million In Damages For Alleged Hostile Work Environment

The minors suing Kanye West and his Yeezy company over a hostile work environment want the rapper to pay up, ASAP!

As reported, the plaintiffs, aged 14 to 17, were reportedly hired to work on Kanye’s streaming app for his “Vulture 2” album. The teens alleged they faced bullying based on their sexual orientation and ethnicity, were exposed to explicit material, and endured degrading treatment, including being called “slaves” while working for Yeezy.

Reportedly, the plaintiffs recently filed a motion asking the court to issue a default judgment to cover emotional distress, unpaid wages, and punitive damages. They’re seeking $2.4 million in damages, according to a report from In Touch.

Reps from Yeezy have yet to respond to the lawsuit, but Kanye, along with his former chief of staff Milo Yiannopoulos, have publicly denied the allegations.

This legal battle adds to Kanye’s ongoing controversies, as he is also facing a separate sexual harassment lawsuit from his former assistant.
