Remember that emotional Thanksgiving speech Kanye West gave at the Los Angeles Mission? The one where he talked about family, redemption, and being near his kids? Well, it just sparked a legal battle… and then promptly fizzled out.
Elijah Graham, a volunteer at the mission, claimed he filmed the speech and accused Kanye of using it without permission in a fashion brand ad. He even said it hindered his own plans to sell the footage. So, he sued for copyright infringement.
But hold your horses, Swifties! This drama didn’t even reach the main stage. According to court documents, Graham just dropped the lawsuit. Case closed, mic drop.
This might be a small win for Kanye, who’s still facing other legal hurdles, including a $2 million lawsuit from his ex-Gap partner and another from a former Malibu mansion employee. But hey, every cleared case counts, right?
Here’s the juicy gossip:
- Remember all the controversy surrounding Kanye’s visit to the mission? Apparently, execs there weren’t thrilled with his unfulfilled promises of helping the homeless.
- Kanye’s ex-business manager also recently dropped a hefty lawsuit against him. Talk about dodging legal bullets!
So, what’s next for Kanye? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure, this copyright case is officially over, leaving us with one less Kardashian-adjacent legal saga to follow. Until the next one, that is!

P.S. We know, we know, there’s no Taylor Swift connection here. But hey, who can resist a good Swiftie reference?
