Evel Knievel is suing Kanye West, claiming West infringed on his likeness in the video for "Touch the Sky".
In the video West goes by the moniker "Evel Kanyevel" and is wearing a red, white and blue jumpsuit, similar to the outfit Knievel wore for his many jumps in the 1970s and '80s.
Knievel also claims the "vulgar and offensive" language used in the video damage his reputation.
Song is just ok, but I love the trumpets, sampled from Curtis Mayfield's "Move On Up."
Evil Douchenevil needs to relax a bit. I'm pretty sure no one is getting Kanye and him confused. What's the big deal...get a freakin sense of humor, or appreciation for immitation.
