Kanye West Allegedly Wanted a Jail in Donda School, Says Ex-Employee

Kanye West is facing a new lawsuit from an ex-employee who is alleging a hostile work environment and emotional distress

According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly on Tuesday, April 2, Trevor Phillips says he suffered severe discrimination, harassment and retaliation directly by West, 46, — who now goes by Ye — after he was hired in November 2022 for a position at Yeezy. “Kanye represented the possibilities of what a Black man could accomplish in America: achievement, recognition and financial freedom — truly, the American Dream,” Phillips’ attorneys stated in court documents. “By filing this lawsuit, we hope our injured clients’ rights are vindicated, and that the famous artist Mr. West understands that his messages — which we alleged preach discrimination, antisemitism and Hitler-love — have no place in the world,” Shegerian said.
