Actors, stylists, and hairdressers are claiming they’re still owed payment and penalties from his 2019 opera performances.
While actively waging war against major labels for the unfair treatment of musicians and producers, Kanye West has been hit with a $1,000,000 lawsuit for unpaid wages.

According to The Blast, a hair assistant is joined by “dozens of other persons who performed services on the production” in a class-action lawsuit against the rapper for underpaying or failing to pay altogether his staff for their roles in his 2019 opera, Nebuchadnezzar. In the suit, the hair assistant alleges personnel on Nebuchadnezzar “oversaw, controlled and ran the production,” for all performances. It adds, “the aggrieved employees worked many hours on the production and were not timely paid for their work, or paid at all.” West and his team have yet to offer comment on the suit or its claims.
