NOV 15 V7N- Kanye West, also known as Ye, is facing new legal allegations from a former employee who described his time working for the artist’s Yeezy brand and Donda Academy as a "nightmare." The lawsuit, filed in California, alleges that Ye frequently made anti-Semitic remarks, including claims that Jewish people were controlling the family of his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, and targeting him financially.

The suit, brought by Murphy Aficionado, who worked for Ye between 2022 and 2023, also accuses the rapper of fostering a toxic work environment with racist rants and inappropriate behavior. Aficionado alleges that Ye flaunted his sexual relationships in the workplace, forcing staff to overhear intimate encounters with his then-girlfriend Bianca Censori and a masseuse.

This lawsuit adds to the mounting controversies surrounding Ye, who has faced backlash for previous anti-Semitic statements, including praising Hitler and threatening Jewish people on social media. These remarks led to the loss of major partnerships, such as his deal with Adidas.

The suit seeks compensation for unpaid wages and emotional damages, with Aficionado’s attorney stating that the case aims to hold Ye accountable for conduct that has no place in society. Ye's representatives have not responded to the claims.
