Is Kanye West Missing?
The assertion that Kanye West is missing appears to have some validity. Thomas St. John, Kanye's former business manager, is trying to serve the rapper with a $4.5 million lawsuit but is having difficulties finding him, the U.S. Sun reports. Thomas asserted that Kanye skipped court partly to get a more extended deadline for serving his case over allegedly unpaid costs. Thomas added that he could not contact Kanye's legal counsel.

"We were advised about a new law firm for defendants, but not a specific point of contact," the document requesting an extension states. "We subsequently learned of information in the news that the law firm identified as new counsel was not affiliated with the defendants. Accordingly, we have not been able to serve defendants through their counsel."
The statement goes on to say that, generally speaking, Thomas's attorneys have had trouble locating Kanye's ideal current address.
"For Mr. West, despite our diligent efforts, we were unable to ascertain his current residential address, and therefore, have not yet made attempts to serve him personally. Instead, we have attempted to service him by mail at multiple possible addresses," the filing states.

What Happened To Kanye West?
The case was filed by Kanye's former business manager, who claimed he was not compensated for an 18-month contractual term of service for the rapper. However, Thomas was only compensated for the three months that he worked in the position. Following the complaint, Kanye allegedly lost his cool while speaking with Thomas in January 2022 and declared that he no longer desired to collaborate with him.

"When confronted by the 18-month commitment that had just been made, Kanye stated words to the effect of 'The 18-month term was bulls--t' and 'You're insane for even thinking I would stick to it," the lawsuit claims.
Kanye appears to be around still, even though he avoids the lawsuit.
Where Is Kanye West Now?
Some believe that Kanye may have passed away due to all the reports that he has vanished, although there is no evidence to support this. What is certain, though, is that Kanye has a proven track record of dodging legal issues he may not want to deal with. It's unclear whether finding him is impossible, but he has undoubtedly faded from view in recent weeks.
