Read our privacy policy Kanye West’s fashion brand Yeezy owes $600,000 in unpaid taxes to the state of California, NBC News reported Wednesday. The state of California has issued multiple tax liens over the last two years to Yeezy Apparel, a company managed and reportedly owned by Ye, according to government records obtained by NBC News. California public records show Yeezy Apparel has been operating in the state since 2017, and was reported as being in “good” standing in an annual filing last January. While a representative for the California Employment Development Department said it could not comment on taxpayer information, experts agreed that the tax liens most likely “pertained to payroll taxes”.
