Victory Boyd claimed Scott's 2023 hit song was built from a demo she created with Ye, but she's now ending a case that was "draining her creatively and spiritually."

A singer who accused Travis Scott, SZA and Future of stealing their 2023 hit “Telekinesis” from an unreleased demo track she created with Ye (the artist formerly known as Kanye West) has now dropped her lawsuit — telling Billboard that she has “decided to forgive” Scott and move on.
The case was filed last year by Victory Boyd, a gospel singer who alleged the stars needed her approval to adapt her “Like The Way It Sounds” — a 2019 demo she recorded while collaborating with Ye — into “Telekinesis,” which spent 11 weeks on the Hot 100.
