Rapper Kanye West is facing a $30 million lawsuit involving performers and backstage staff at his ” Sunday Service ” show.

In addition, a member of the performance lineup, Michael Pearson, said he was only paid 250 USD a day “regardless of the number of hours worked”, “not allowed to eat or rest”. rest in the bathroom” and “forced to stand or sit on the ground”, and there was no shuttle bus when returning home.

Nearly 1,000 artists and backstage staff of the show “Sunday Service” denounced Kanye West for unfair treatment and not paying their salaries.

In addition, this lawsuit is also related to the production of Kanye West’s opera night  Nebuchadnezzar” at the Hollywood Bowl in November 2019. Specifically, the show was accused of violating California labor law by not paying employees on time. In addition, they refuse to pay overtime, food and cleaning costs.

Lawyers are currently continuing to gather more information from other members of the “Sunday Service” and believe the final number will be closer to 1,000 people. ” There have been hundreds of people participating, but besides that they are also talking to many other people who are in the same situation as themselves. People were very upset about the way they were treated and said it was the worst experience. What needs to be done now is to prove that Kanye is the employer but acted irresponsibly. The more people who accuse, the greater the scope of the complaint ,” a legal source shared with the media.

A source added: ” No one knows whether Kanye West is directly involved in this incident or not? But if he knew what was going on, it seemed like things had gotten rushed and gone too far. Whether due to poor management, accidental or intentional, this is a very serious matter .” In this case, the male rapper is likely to have to spend 1 million USD (more than 23 billion VND) for the lawsuit when it is settled. If you dispute, the maximum number could be 30 million USD (more than 619.5 billion VND). Previously, Kanye West once confirmed that he spent 50 million USD (more than 1,152 billion VND) for the performances of the “Sunday Service” choir.

If he decides to confront the allegations, Kanye West may have to spend up to 30 million USD to resolve this lawsuit.

In addition, international media also reported that Kanye West is preparing for divorce proceedings with Kim Kardashian. In August, the American artist also got into legal trouble with My Channel company when the company decided to sue him for 20 million USD  for violating the cooperation agreement, and at the same time copied the technology concept for “Sunday Service” and its own Yeezy brand.
