This included the tracks from&nbsp;<em>Operation Doomsday<\/em>&nbsp;(1999),&nbsp;<em>Madvillainy<\/em>&nbsp;(2004), and&nbsp;<em>MM\u2026FOOD<\/em>&nbsp;(2004) as well as unreleased songs ideas, musings and \u201cother creative ideations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-b95c5b59-4d03-4ac9-bb7d-6c5784d1f70c\">The case, filed in California federal court Tuesday, is not the first time DOOM\u2019s fans have heard about these notebooks. Back in March, Thompson posted emails between her late husband and Alapatt to the @MFDOOM instagram account with the caption \u201cEgon Give the Notebooks Back,\u201d sending fans to rally around the rapper\u2019s estate and its struggle to repossess his writing material. Alapatt started working with DOOM as the general manager and a&amp;r of Stones Throw Records. He is also the former manager of DOOM-collaborator and producer Madlib and founder of Now Again Records. According to the complaint, Alapatt has admitted to having the notebooks in the past, but the estate says he refuses to return them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-84915ca8-334c-43f6-8ef3-3e11a93416a1\">Instead, Alapatt is allegedly demanding that the notebooks be \u201cdonated to a university or government archive\u201d or a \u201cmuseum or other institution of [Alapatt\u2019s] choosing,\u201d even though doing so is contrary to his estate\u2019s wishes. \u201c[The notebooks] were intended by DOOM to be secret and confidential,\u201d the lawsuit reads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-15b135b2-d0b3-4f32-9eda-8edd71f07910\">t all started in 2010, when the metal-masked rapper travelled to the U.K. to perform but was prohibited from returning to the U.S. due to immigration issues. (He remained in the U.K.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/rb-hip-hop\/mf-doom-dead-9506021\/\">until his death<\/a>&nbsp;on October 31, 2020 at the age of 49). During his absence, the 31 notebooks of lyrical material were left behind in his Los Angeles studio, according to the lawsuit, and Alapatt \u201ctook unlawful possession\u201d of the books about six years later.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-7974f563-28a7-46e3-a2a7-29710f802197\">\u201cAlapatt never consulted with DOOM about his acquisition of the notebooks and took advantage of DOOM\u2019s being out the country to obtain them,\u201d the lawsuit says, but when first confronted by DOOM about the whereabouts of his books, Alapatt allegedly lied at first, saying he didn\u2019t have them. After the landlord of DOOM\u2019s studio allegedly told DOOM that Alapatt did, in fact, have the notebooks, DOOM confronted the exec again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-b75ae19c-138f-47cb-a997-8776677326ef\">Alapatt allegedly then told DOOM he got the notebooks because DOOM owed $12,500 in past-due rent, and if someone did not pay it off, the landlord was going to destroy the possessions he left behind. Because Alapatt claims to have paid that rent on DOOM\u2019s behalf, he said that the physical notebooks themselves were legally his property, according the complaint. (Earlier this year, Thompson has come to suspect that DOOM owed no additional rent, and Alapatt simply paid $12,500 to the landlord to buy the books.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-b7364b1c-bf18-4df1-ab42-380b4784d7d6\">In Summer 2020, Alapatt apparently offered to send DOOM and his family photocopies of the contents of the notebooks for the \u201csole purpose\u201d of allowing DOOM access but would not give back the physical books themselves. DOOM refused this proposal. In October 2020, shortly before the rapper\u2019s death, the estate says Alapatt sent DOOM a hard drive with large format scans of every notebook he lost, all of which were time stamped between 2018 and March 2020. The lawsuit claims that this proves Alapatt was infringing on his estate\u2019s intellectual property, which is now held by his business entity, Gas Drawls, by creating and disseminating unlawful copies of DOOM\u2019s lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-ce858ff5-737e-4180-b49b-a74638d65b2a\">It is unclear who Alapatt sent these scans to, if anyone, but the lawsuit claims Alapatt was talking to potential buyers, including hip-hop archivists, to sell the notebooks or its copies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-3bc1d9fe-60c6-41f3-a6db-e04a8ec341e9\">\u201cAlthough Alapatt has professed that he \u2018does not intend to publish\u2019 the unauthorized digital copies he made, he does not have to \u2018publish\u2019 the copies of his infringing copies to be liable,\u201d argues the complaint. \u201cRegardless, [DOOM\u2019s estate] alleges that Alapatt actually shared the copies of the notebook he made with others.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-38b39e9f-78f1-4e7f-b0f4-e20a610a9bbb\">Now, after DOOM\u2019s death, Thompson is intent on getting the notebooks returned to the family, the photo copies destroyed, and \u201csignificant compensation\u201d for the damage Alapatt has caused. Along with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/t\/copyright\/\">copyright<\/a> infringement, the lawsuit alleges \u201cfraud, conversion, unjust enrichment, constructive trust and declaratory relief\u201d and requests a jury trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-92bb1de6-6a0a-49ae-958b-0960e44383f4\">In a statement sent to&nbsp;<em>Billboard<\/em>, Alapatt\u2019s lawyer&nbsp;<strong>Kenneth Freundlich&nbsp;<\/strong>said the following: \u201cMr. Alapatt looks forward to his day in court to dismiss these frivolous and untrue allegations. Mr. Alapatt rescued these books from DOOM\u2019s unpaid landlord who had taken possession of all of his belongings. With DOOM\u2019s blessing, Mr. Alapatt intended to donate the books to either the Smithsonian or the Cornell University Hip Hop Archive, where they&nbsp;could be considered and studied by scholars, in the same way that manuscripts by great poets or sheet music by great composers are.&nbsp;Mr. Alapatt will do everything he can to ensure that these historically significant books are archived and protected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-d3753252-82ac-4079-8c9e-f6bba6e38758\">A representative for Thompson and Gas Drawls did not immediately return a request for comment on the complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-453b6217-65a1-4032-91c2-1926e3e920cc\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lftcllp.com\/lawyers\/miles-cooley\/\">Thompson and Gas Drawls are represented by&nbsp;<strong>Miles M.
