Kanye West Settles Battery Lawsuit Over Alleged Autograph Incident

Kanye West seemingly has one less legal issue to handle, as he settled his battery lawsuit according to In Touch Weekly. Moreover, for those unaware, he faced this claim in February in Los Angeles Superior Court from an autograph collector who claimed that Ye struck him and threatened him when he approached him for a signature in January of 2022. This took place near a warehouse in downtown Los Angeles, and the autograph enthusiast in question (Justin Poplawski) reportedly told the court that the settlement covers the whole debacle. Apparently, both parties came to a final understanding around September 11.

Elsewhere, Kanye West is probably trying his best to balance his new music sessions, his travels with his wife Bianca Censori, and his other business endeavors while also dealing with the fallout of his alleged actions and his confirmed behavior. He continues to be a focal point of controversy for various reasons, whether it’s sexual harassment allegations or disappointed fans following VULTURES 2. A third installment is allegedly on the way, but we all know how hectic and unfulfilled these album rollouts can be.

In fact, it appears like Kanye West fans have instead taken matters into their own hands when it comes to new music. A fan seemingly hacked his Spotify page and uploaded the Ty Dolla $ign VULTURES leftover “GUN TO MY HEAD” featuring Kid Cudi, which was previously only available digitally. Interestingly enough, it wasn’t visible for every single user and it seems like this was by no means an intentional or official release. Given just how bizarre and glitchy the VULTURES releases turned out, we’re not surprised that Ye continues to deal with some weird uploads.

Meanwhile, Kanye West and Bianca Censori have never flinched amid his many controversies, going out in lewd and striking fashion all around the world. Ye keeps this attitude up across pretty much everything he does, for better or worse. Nevertheless, we’ll see what becomes of his other lawsuits on the table, as he has a lot of accusations and legal discrepancies to handle. Although, considering the Chicago artist’s previous billionaire status, maybe many settlements don’t sound so bad.
