He is an Irish business personality, who runs an international accounting firm, the ‘Thomas St John Group’. He is based in Los Angeles. The producer and rapper made a deal with him to pay him a $300,000 monthly retainer to help Kanye run his businesses. However, the two worked only for three months together, but the ‘College Dropout’ rapper did not remunerate Thomas with the promised amount.

But, as per the law, the plaintiffs have to present a record of the notification that the defendants are informed. However, as per the court papers, the plaintiffs failed to reach West. They sent the legal papers to all his addresses, but the attempts went in vain. The filings stated, “We were advised about a new law firm for defendants, but not a specific point of contact. We subsequently learned of information in the news that the law firm identified as new counsel was not affiliated with the defendants”.

It read, “When confronted by the 18-month commitment that had just been made, Mr. West stated words to the effect of ‘The 18-month term was bulls**t’ and ‘You’re wild for even thinking I would stick to it.’ “ So, as a remedy, he has sued him for $4.5 million which includes the unpaid retainer.
