Rapper Kayne West has been accused of stealing the logo he is using on his Donda Album merch off another Black creator, Randy Dawkins.
West who just released his highly anticipated album Donda to lukewarm reviews has been called out by Dawkins who owns the clothing line, Infinity G8ds, for allegedly stealing the clothing lines logo.
Infinity G8ds was established in 2016 by two friends Randy Dawkins and Jayshawn Bull (SSO Sneezy), a musical artist.
The Daily Beast reported that Dawkins told the publication that West and some of the Infinity G8ds team met up to discuss the clothing line, they had dinner and West suggested they may collaborate.
Allegedly, West proceeded to never contact Dawkins again. However, now West’s new merch has a very similar logo.
This is the Infinity G8ds logo.

The Daily Beast reported that Dawkins said: “It’s disappointing.
“We don’t have any bad vibes or bad feelings toward him, we actually like the dude. But how he handled business? Well, that’s another story.”
West has yet to comment.
