More trouble for Kanye West: Rapper sued by former academy teacher

Meadows is now seeking legal recourse, claiming wrongful termination. He began working as an ᴀssistant principal at Donda Academy in 2020, when it was still known as Yeezy Christian Academy, earning a monthly salary of approximately $18,000. Additionally, he received ᴀssistance with housing to reside closer to the school.
It’s not the first time, and likely won’t be the last, that rapper Kanye West has made headlines in the international press. From his high-profile relationship and subsequent breakup with Kim Kardashian to accusations of sharing explicit images of his ex-partner, as well as controversial statements about Adolf Hitler and the Holocaust.

However, the problems seem to keep piling up for Kanye West. The American rapper and producer is now facing a lawsuit filed by a former teacher of the Donda Academy, the private school founded by the artist and named after his late mother, Donda C. West.

The plaintiff, identified as Isaiah Meadows, alleges that he was wrongfully dismissed from the academy after raising concerns about the unsafe conditions at the school, which was established by the rapper in 2022.

According to a report in The Guardian, the teacher claims that his contract was terminated for questioning the school’s security issues and not receiving proper compensation.

After three months, Meadows alleges that his contract terminated for expressing concerns about the school’s conditions. He believes his dismissal was a result of bringing these issues to light.

Although he was reinstated in a lesser position, Meadows was fired for a second time in August 2022. He ᴀsserts that the problems persisted and that he faced retaliation from certain staff members at the academy.
