坎耶•维斯特因违约被科技公司起诉

Kanye West and his Yeezy Apparel company have been sued by the company MyChannel, Inc., TMZ reports and court documents viewed by Pitchfork confirm. The company claims that after Kanye promised to invest $10 million in MyChannel, he walked away from the partnership and copied the company’s video commerce technology to drive sales of Sunday Service merchandise.

据TMZ（娱乐新闻网站）报道，坎耶·维斯特和他的Yeezy Apparel公司被MyChannel公司起诉了，Pitchfork查看的法庭文件也证实了这一消息。MyChannel公司称坎耶原本承诺投资1千万美元，却终止了合作，还窃取了该公司的电子商务技术，提高了Sunday Service商品的销量。

In the lawsuit, MyChannel’s team claim that at Kanye’s urging with the promise of a significant financial partnership, they relocated their headquarters from Pennsylvania to California and again to Illinois. The lawsuit also states the MyChannel team was never paid for $7 million in work they did for Yeezy Apparel. The lawsuit states that West rebranded the company as YZY Tech during business meetings with companies like Adidas and presented “ideas such as those of [MyChannel] as his own.” The lawsuit then says that after talks with West fell apart, MyChannel’s founders noticed that a copied version of their technology was utilized to sell merch in Kanye’s Sunday Service videos.

MyChannel的工作人员在诉讼中称坎耶承诺要进行一项重要投资，应坎耶的要求，他们将公司总部从宾夕法尼亚州迁至加利福尼亚，后又迁至伊利诺伊州。诉讼中还指出MyChannel的工作团队为Yeezy Apparel所做的工作并未收到7百万美元的酬劳。该诉讼称坎耶在与阿迪达斯等公司召开商业会议时将其公司更名为YZY Tech，并把“MyChannel的一些创意说成是自己的”。诉讼中还说和坎耶商讨无果，MyChannel的创始人发现坎耶的Sunday Service公司的销售视频中用到了他们的一项技术。

MyChannel accuses West and Yeezy Apparel of breaching an oral partnership agreement, preventing MyChannel from earning millions, encouraging the company to invest millions, withholding a promised $10 million investment, and violating MyChannel’s non-disclosure agreement by copying their video e-commerce technology. The company is seeking a jury trial and damages.

MyChannel指控坎耶和Yeezy Apparel违反口头合伙协议，使MyChannel少盈利数百万美元，还要求MyChannel投资数百万美元，但他们却并未履行1千万的投资承诺，同时窃取了他们的视频电子商务技术，违反了MyChannel的保密协议。该公司要求陪审团审判并要求赔偿。
