Kanye West sagt im Urheberrechtsprozess um das Album Donda aus

Kanye West, der sich beruflich Ye nennt, trat am Mittwoch vor einem Bundesgericht in Los Angeles in den Zeugenstand. Er äußerte sich zu den Vorwürfen, dass frühe Versionen zweier Titel seines 2021 erschienenen Albums Donda ein nicht lizenziertes Sample enthielten. Die Zeugenaussage erfolgte im Rahmen eines begrenzten Prozesses, der sich auf Demo-Aufnahmen konzentriert, die bei einer Listening-Party vor der Veröffentlichung abgespielt wurden.

Ye erklärte der Jury, dass sein Team die üblichen Verfahren befolgt habe, um den Instrumental-Track „MSD PT2“ zu lizenzieren. Er beschrieb sich selbst als großzügig bei der Vergabe von Credits und Tantiemen und sagte: „Ich bin stolz darauf, den Leuten das zu geben, was sie verdienen.“ Der Rapper gab zudem an, dass viele Kreative von ihm höhere Vergütungen verlangen würden als von anderen, und fügte hinzu: „Ich habe das Gefühl, dass viele Leute versuchen, mich auszunutzen.“
