Thanks to a provision in his EMI contract that's now been newly revealed to the public, Kanye West is not allowed to retire.
West's EMI publishing contract, currently at the center of a wide-ranging lawsuit, states that West will "remain actively involved in writing, recording and producing Compositions and Major Label Albums, as Your principle occupation." Furthermore, West must "at no time during the Term" initiate a retirement from those occupations or take an extended hiatus in which he's not actively carrying them out.
This wording was revealed thanks to the latest move in the dispute from EMI, as the Hollywood Reporter outlined Monday. According to the report, EMI has now filed a notice of removal in an effort to move the case from California state court to the federal level. Their argument is that this all falls under the Copyright Act, an argument that—if made successfully—could complicate what West is seeking in the dispute.
As reported in January citing court documents that were heavily redacted at the time, West is suing both EMI and his label following a previous effort at buying back his publishing rights that proved unsuccessful. Moving forward, the no retirement provision is expected to be a central aspect of West's case, in which he wants "freedom" from his publishing and recording contracts.
West's team has specifically pointed to California Labor Code section 2855, a.k.a. the De Havilland Law. The famous legal precedent states that personal service contracts, i.e. the same ones employed by those in creative fields, are limited to no more than seven calendar years in length.
As you'll recall, this argument was predicted when initial reports of West's suit came through in January. Artists who've previously made similar arguments against the Powers That Be include Courtney Love, Rita Ora, and West's "Hurricane" collaborators Thirty Seconds to Mars.
The latter's battle, also against EMI, was documented in the 2012 film Artifact.

For West, the seven-year argument places the timeline here as starting in 2003 circa College Dropout sessions.
"It makes no difference under section 2855 whether the contract is otherwise fair, or whether the employer has fulfilled its end of the bargain," West's complaint says. "It matters only whether the services began more than seven years ago. There can be no dispute that this happened here. The seven year period ended under this contract on October 1, 2010." My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, West's magnum opus, was released that November.

This is fake!

Photoshoped screenshots at best. The screenshots you posted shows that the tweets were above 50 minutes old and non could get 1000 'likes' or retweets. Kanye West gets tens of thousands of 'likes' and retweets within few minutes of posting on Twitter. Stupid falsehood peddling bloggers! Tueh!

I'm still looking for the apology. Wey am?

SIMPLYkush:
Awilo is an ugly stupid drug adiccted fool who never had a great career, now he is living in misery, his life is a mess, what a world...
next is Mr eazi, otedola should lock him up, he is a yahoo boy in disguise, he cant associate with the elites

What will it cost the mods of this forum to ban this twerp filled with so much bile? How can such lunacy be tolerated anywhere on this planet?

This forum and its moderators are not circumspect and seem to have a penchant for peddling falsehood, else, they won't bring an unfounded crap like this to the front page.

TVC presenter, Morayo Aka-Bashorun, came on TV this morning to apologize to her husband for her careless utterance.

The TV host said, earlier this week, that she would not allow her husband to bath their daughter even though she trusts and loves him. In the video shared below, she made it known that she had been receiving calls from friends and family concerning her utterance and she had to come on air to tender an apology to her husband.

Mehn, to be honest, we r trying....

A lot of non-nigerians are watching the video. An American chick I met in New York few months ago was singing Fall like she's a Nigerian... I mean, she loved the song.

Hatred and bias can have the capacity to impair your ability to recognize a satire when it stares at you. It is public knowledge that Oyedepo detests anything APC and Buhari since, even before, Jonathan was kicked out of Aso Rock. Is it not the same Oyedepo that went with Atiku to 'greet' Obasanjo in Ota?

If I may, what is the man of God doing reading news papers on the pulpit? SMH

If you've had "yahoo boys" as close pals, you will appreciate this aspect of life better. I happen to know some of them who would not hide certain things from me.

The average scam artist we have in this clime is intellectually poor, they can barely express themselves in simple written English. So, does it not baffle you that they, till this moment, successfully rip people from the so called enlightened, western countries off their life savings?... Despite all the sensitizations?

Metaphysical powers are real. Juju is real like day and night. You can be hypnotized, people can make you do their bidding. The only safe thing to do is to never come in contact with them by any means.

Stay blessed!

Ignorance is bliss!

People mostly believe what they can see/feel so I don't blame those who agree with the OP that there are no such things as supernatural forces. The people around us and the environment we live have big influence on us.

I do not pray for anyone to encounter malevolent forces. Who no go, no know. Stay blessed!
