The T-shirt controversy never ends.

Kendall and Kylie Jenner are facing a lawsuit over their vintage-style T-shirt collection that superimposed the stars Instagram photos over iconic music images.

Michael Miller has now filed a copyright suit against the girls for using his photos of the deceased rapper Tupac Shakur, Billboard reports . Millers suit claims the Jenners never sought permission to use the photo and the sisters have misappropriated and wrongfully exploited two of his images of Tupac.

One portion of Millers suit specifically targeted the problematic association of his images with the Jenner name, according to Billboard. The lawsuit referred to the Pepsi commercial starring Kendall Jenner that was hit with explosive backlash for its tone-deaf nature . That commercial, like the shirts, was also pulled.

The suit states an association with Kendall is particularly problematic given that she was complicit in not one but two of the worst public relations disasters in recent memory, according to Billboard.
