Ye Facing Lawsuit Over 'Vultures' Production Credits

Two producers are taking legal action, saying Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign used their music on the Vultures project without clearing it first. According to the suit, the producers sent tracks to Ty as MP3 files—and those beats allegedly ended up on the album without a license or any compensation.

Yeezy Record Label LLC, Yeezy LLC, and distributor Create Music Group are all named in the lawsuit. It's the kind of dispute that shouldn't exist in 2024: you send your work to an artist, it gets used, nobody asks permission, nobody pays.

This is part of a bigger pattern in hip-hop where production credits and ownership can get messy, especially when deals move fast and paperwork gets sloppy. Whether this one sticks depends on what proof the producers have—timestamps, communications, the works. Either way, it's a reminder that even at the highest level, the business side still matters.

The Vultures era has been complicated enough already.
