Free Maiden accused Ye of not paying production fees and using tracks for “Donda 2” and “Vultures 2” without permission. Kanye West released “Donda 2” on streaming platforms and quickly faced legal issues over unpaid fees and alleged music theft. Ye publically claimed that Free Maiden tried to extort $3 million for beats used on the album. Maiden, who has been instrumental in the music careers of various artists, stated that West owes him money and used tracks without consent. Maiden asserted that West took tracks from producer Boogz without permission and owes him and another producer, Brian Allday, for their work on “Donda 2.” Despite West's social media posts about the situation, Maiden intends to stand firm against his alleged actions.
