The employees in the joint suit, half of whom are minors (with one as young as 14)—allege that in addition to not being paid for their work, they were subject to racial slurs and Black employees were called “slaves.” They also claim that the minors were exposed to pornographic material while working on Ye’s new adult-film and pornography venture Yeezy Porn, and that Ye’s team was “directly and personally aware” of said exposure.
The employees state in the suit that Ye's wife Bianca Censori sent an employee a shared file of “hardcore” porn for the Yeezy Porn platform, and that photos from that file were “openly disseminated” in group forums with the underage workers. The employees also claim they were threatened with non-payment if they refused to sign NDAs.
I'm not blaming the kids, but I'm 100% blaming the parents who let their teenagers intern for Kanye West.
That's just insanely irresponsible and they literally aren't fit to have custody. Like it's shady enough for a legit celebrity, but Kanye?
- Even the whiff of money blinds greedy fucks from seeing any consequences.
Previous discussions have informed me that at a certain point of wealth, you no longer consider yourself part of the "black class" and you instead consider yourself part of the "wealthy class".
- Yeah Kanye was always Batshit crazy, but he was making money fore enough people to be enabled and managed. How do you think Donald Trump happened?
The article is paywalled, but I have to ask... you know that Twilight Zone: The Movie segment where the bigoted guy is suddenly a Jew in Nazi Germany? Are we sure that didn't happen with Kanye except he never learned his lesson?
- Kanye was suddenly in the SS.
Why do people call him Ye?
- Apparently he changed it in 2021. And that's his whole name now, no middle or last name.
- It's the second syllable of his first name. Kind of like how people call Jessica "Jess" or Thomas "Tom".
  
  Wouldn’t that be more like “ick” or “ass,” respectively?
  
  Oh ok. I thought maybe he changed it? IDK
I propose a cruel and unusual punishment called yeet.
Btw, he's said to be in Russia rn.
That sounds like a choice
OMG I hope this isn’t true!!!!!
- I mean…. gestures towards all the terrible shit Ye/Yeezy/Kanye has done in recent years
  It’s probably true
