Ye Sued by Production Company Alleging $7 Million in Unpaid Concert Costs
Written by SOURCE on July 14, 2022
Production company Phantom Labs has filed a lawsuit against Kanye West over an alleged $7.1 million in unpaid concert costs.
TMZ reports that Phantom Labs says it worked with Ye on multiple projects between June 2021 and March 2022, including a listening event for Donda 2 and his “Free Larry Hoover” benefit show with Drake. The company also worked on four of his Sunday Service concerts and did pre-production on what would’ve been his 2022 Coachella performance, though he pulled out. Despite initially receiving payments, Phantom Labs accuse Ye and his team of stringing them along.
Over the period the company worked with Ye, it claims to have amassed a $6 million bill West has yet to pay. Shortly after he cancelled his Coachella appearance just two weeks before the festival began, the company was billed a further $1.1 million in cancellation fees. Phantom Labs is suing the multi-hyphenate for breach of contract and seeking the unpaid $7.1 million plus unspecified damages.
