KANYE WEST and his company, which creates his famed Yeezy sneakers, are being sued for allegedly withholding more than $600,000 from a Japanese company who was providing fabrics for his line.

Toki Sen-I Co. filed the lawsuit against West and Yeezy Apparel, LLC. on Thursday, claiming that the 41-year-old rapper attempted to cheat them out of money by creating a fake company, according to court documents obtained by The Blast.

The Japanese knitted fabric supplier, who said it began working with West in 2015, explained that problems arose when it requested a down payment for a large order of various fleece fabrics in June 2018, which West never provided.

According to the company, the “I Like It” rapper later announced he would not be paying for the fabrics at all, which totaled $624,051, and refused to compromise over the many payment plans that were offered by Toki Sen-I.

The company also claim Yeezy Apparel is a “sham,” operating without capital assets or member interest, and believe West runs the clothing and shoe company in a compromising manner to benefit himself.

Representatives for West did not immediately respond to PEOPLE magazine’s request for comment.
