Kanye West Vs Walmart?!

Kanye West is facing a legal dispute with Walmart.

Kanye attempted to trademark his fashion logo, which they say looks like their own.

The legal counsel for Kanye filed a trademark application for a stylized sunray graphic logo to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

โ€œThe mark consists of eight dotted lines, each comprising three totally shaded circles, with a total of 24 circles, arranged at equal angles as rays from a sun,โ€ Yeezy LLC stated in the description of the application.

The application went public, and Walmart filed a notice of opposition. They argue the Yeezy graphic traces the logo will cause confusion between the companyโ€™s customers.

โ€œIt will be damaged by registration of [Yeezy LLCโ€™s] mark,โ€ Walmart contends in the notice. โ€œA design of six rays symmetrically centered around a circle,โ€ which Walmart consistently uses โ€œcan be found prominently featured on the exterior and interior signage of its more than 5,000 retail outlets, through the e-commerce platform www.walmart.com, which has the second largest e-commerce market share in the U.S., and throughout its nationwide television commercials, including commercials aired during the Super Bowl.โ€

Kanyeโ€™s legal team has until May 31 to answer Walmartโ€™s opposition in court.
