In 2023, Jasmine Dumile Thompson, widow of rapper MF Doom, sued Eothen "Egon" Alapatt for copyright infringement related to his possession of Doom's notebooks. Following the artist's death in 2020, the notebooks were kept by Alapatt, prompting legal action from Thompson. The dispute was amicably resolved, with Alapatt returning the notebooks. Both parties expressed relief and gratitude, emphasizing their commitment to celebrating MF Doom's extraordinary legacy in music and culture through this resolution.
We are relieved to bring this chapter to a close," Thompson said on behalf of her family. "Our focus remains steadfast on celebrating Doom's extraordinary legacy."
Doom was a dear friend to me and one of the most important artists I've ever known. My only goal has always been to showcase Doom's lasting musical genius."
