Ye, the artist and entrepreneur formerly known as Kanye West, has reached a settlement with former employee Lauren Pisciotta, who accused him of widespread sexual misconduct, according to Billboard.

The settlement was filed in Los Angeles court on Tuesday, July 28, and unconditionally resolves the entire lawsuit Pisciotta brought against Ye. The terms were not disclosed. Pisciotta's attorney, Arick Fudali, told Billboard: "The matter has been resolved."

Pisciotta worked for Ye between 2021 and 2023, first in A&R — the talent-scouting and artist-development arm of a record label — for his album Donda, and later as personal assistant and chief of staff for his companies, including Yeezy.

She sued Ye for sexual harassment in June 2024, alleging he frequently propositioned her for sex, sent graphic text messages, and once masturbated in front of her while locking her in a room during a private jet flight. Pisciotta sought at least $4 million in damages, according to The Washington Post.

In July 2025, she submitted an amended complaint adding allegations of sexual assault and sex trafficking. The reworked lawsuit claimed Ye made fraudulent promises of career advancement in exchange for her acquiescence to sexual contact, and used force and coercion to obtain compliance. It further alleged he groped her on a regular basis, once attempted to penetrate her with his fingers, and once orally raped her without her consent.

Ye's spokesperson responded to the amended lawsuit in July 2025 by calling the claims "outrageous" and "demonstrably false." A Yeezy spokesperson had previously called Pisciotta's claims "absurd" and vowed to "annihilate" them in court, as reported by Complex. The case was presided over by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Nicholas F. Daum, according to Law360.

The settlement adds to a pattern of employment-related legal disputes for Ye. A former construction manager at his Malibu mansion won a $140,000 jury verdict for on-the-job injuries — the first of Ye's employee lawsuits to go to trial. He was separately ordered to pay $140,000 to a former project manager in an unpaid wages case, the Spokesman-Review reported. Ye has also settled with teachers at his now-shuttered Donda Academy private school.

The resolution closes a case that, had it proceeded to trial, would have required a jury to weigh Pisciotta's detailed allegations against Ye's flat denials. Instead, both sides walk away without a court ruling on the merits — a common outcome in civil settlements, where agreement replaces adjudication and confidentiality clauses typically keep the financial terms private.
