Kanye West Accused By Another Lawyer Of Ghosting Him

Kanye West is unsurprisingly dealing with a million different things at once by only focusing on one at a time. Moreover, he’s probably thinking a lot about his Ty Dolla $ign collab album Vultures, which is supposed to drop tonight at press time… but you never know with Ye, do you? Regardless, the Chicago rapper stands accused of ignoring plenty of other action items, including responding to lawsuits on behalf of companies and entities that want to hold him accountable. The latest of these is from Scott Spivey, an attorney for Trax Records that asked a Louisiana judge to approve of other means of serving him with a lawsuit on Monday (December 11), according to court documents reportedly obtained by AllHipHop.

“The necessity for this motion arises from the fact that counsel for Ye has been notified. But [he] refuses to provide an address for his client,” the lawyer expressed in the legal filing. “Additionally, Defendant Ye is constantly traveling around the world, making conventional service of process impossible. This motion is crucial to uphold due process and ensure Defendant Ye is duly notified of the ongoing legal proceedings.” This lawsuit from Trax is over a Marshall Jefferson sample– the track “Move Your Body”– in Kanye West’s 2022 Donda 2 cut “Flowers” that was allegedly used without permission.

Furthermore, Kanye West’s lawyer Greg Nelson claimed via email in June of this year that the California home that Spivey tried to serve him papers at in December of 2022 is no longer where he stays. When asked a month later in July whether he would accept the attorney’s service or indicate how to present the papers to the 46-year-old, Nelson allegedly said that his client is in Japan. He didn’t have an address for him and claimed to have no authorization to waive service. Therefore, Trax Records requested alternative service for “essentially… an international defendant” and await the judge’s decision.

“Considering the unique challenges presented by Defendant Ye’s circumstances, the following alternative service methods are proposed,” the motion read. “Service by Publication. Publish notice of the legal proceedings in reputable international newspapers. [Also,] online platforms that are likely to be accessed by Defendant Ye. Service by Mail. Send copies of the summons and complaint via international certified mail to any known addresses associated with Defendant Ye. Service through a Designated Agent. Utilize a legal representative as a designated agent to deliver the necessary documents to Defendant Ye. Each method has its advantages and potential drawbacks. But all are aimed at ensuring that Defendant Ye receives proper notice.” For more news and the latest updates on Kanye West, log back into HNHH.

iLoveMakonnen Blasts Metro Boomin, Post Malone, And Swae Lee For Ghosting Him Until NBA YoungBoy Collab

The career of iLoveMakonnen never took off after his 2014 hit “Tuesday”. The Drake-remixed track peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and led to the rapper joining OVO Records. However, he has rarely made an impact on the charts since. His debut EP iLoveMakonnen peaked at #72 on the Billboard Album 200 and is just one of two non-single releases from the artist to chart. The other was the mixtape Drink More Water 6, which peaked at #35 in 2016. Outside of that, his single “I’ve Been Waiting” with Lil Peep featuring Fall Out Boy peaked at #62 in 2019. Meanwhile, his Steve Aoki feature “How Else” peaked at #47 in 2017.

However, the artist, who also saw a major decline in his following after coming out as gay in 2017, has gone on the offensive. He recently featured on the NBA YoungBoy track “Parasites” and has found his phone blowing up ever since. As a result, iLoveMakonnen has chosen to call out the people who ghosted him until now.

iLoveMakonnen Blasts Big Name Artists

“I’m HIM and I Been HERE! 🐲I ain’t do shit to yall! Y’all turned y’all back on me and held hands together, 💅unfollowed me and everything, now y’all see me with YB(the realist n***a on earth) and start hitting me up like it’s all good. 🤯Damn,That shit painful to see, especially after we came up together in Atlanta in 2014 🫣 💅 @postmalone @swaelee @metroboomin @nba_youngboy,” the rapper wrote on Instagram. Included in his post was screenshots of the tagged artists sliding into his DMs after the release of “Parasites”. In some cases, there are clearly visible years-old unread messages from iLoveMakonnen to these various artists.

Swae Lee hit back in the comments of the post. “Bro I was saying that to you goofy not for any reason besides spreading love I’m good in the game ,I knew you when you was throwing up on shrooms bro relax tf I saw you on the TL heard the new jam and privately told you it was hard don’t be that guy 👌🏽 that’s funny though bro fr. We can chop it up anytime you see me though I don’t do the public drama shit stay up,” Lee wrote across two separate comments posted seven hours apart.

Freddie Gibbs’ Pornstar Ex-GF Says He Ghosted Her During Pregnancy, She Was Paying His Phone Bill

Dating a rapper may look glamorous from the outside, but according to Freddie Gibbs’ ex, adult film star Destini, her relationship with the Indiana native concluded on an undeniably sour note. The content creator told her story via a Twitter thread on Thursday (May 4), revealing that he allegedly ghosted her after finding out that she’s carrying his child. According to her, Gibbs first came into her life in 2020, at which time he slid into her Instagram DMs. “For the record, he always knew I did porn and was very supportive,” she added, cautioning haters not to run their mouths in the comments.

“After we made it official blogs started posting about us,” Destini – who’s best known as TheFitMami online – recalled. “We didn’t care, we were just having fun.” The couple’s romance found them travelling to Europe and having a blast together, though the adult entertainer says they also spent time discussing the idea of having a baby. Their return to the U.S. found them in a good place, and Gibbs began his stateside tour. Shortly after this, however, they were caught up in the middle of a physical altercation that left Destini traumatized. “I ended up having to get a prescription for Xanax because I was so paranoid,” she admitted. “I was having nightmares. It was horrible, I felt like I was going crazy at times.”

Destini Spills Tea on Twitter

The lyricist’s former lover noted that one of Gibbs’ baby mamas began regularly harassing and threatening her, even dragging the daughter Destini shares with another man into things. Amid all the drama, she and her partner took a trip to Hawaii for Freddie’s 40th, along with his mother. “He had this idea that we would name the baby Penny, like Penny Hardaway if he was a boy. BFFR,” she alleged in another tweet. Not long after that, a drunken night at a friend’s birthday party apparently resulted in plenty of romping, and the conception of a child. “When I told Freddie his tone immediately changed,” TheFitMami said of discovering she was pregnant.

“I’m so confused at this point, because have we not been talking about having a baby for the last eight months??” she asked later in the thread. As they travelled to Australia together, the couple continued to avoid the important discussion at hand. Several weeks later, Destini made it clear that she couldn’t be with him if he wanted her to have an abortion, while the 40-year-old previously shared that he felt he wasn’t ready for a child. Ultimately, they parted ways, but Freddie apparently hasn’t checked in on her, despite the fact that she’s carrying his child.
