AceShowbiz - Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign faced legal problems after Donna Summer's estate filed a lawsuit against them due to copyright infringement. In February, the "Heaven Knows" singer's estate accused the rappers of using vocals that resemble her hit song "I Feel Love" on "Good (Don't Die)" despite the estate's previous rejection.
The estate attempted to remove the track from music streaming platforms several times. They also sought major damages and an injunction, which would block the distribution of the song moving forward. Fortunately, in May, Donna's widower Bruce Sudano reached a "global settlement" with Ye.
