Jay-Z’s legal troubles continue, as the Brooklyn emcee has been sued by the Workers Compensation Board of New York.
TMZ.com reports that the suit alleges that Jay failed to pay worker’s compensation insurance for three months in 2009.
The insurance, which was supposed to cover domestic employees in the emcee’s home, was allegedly properly paid after the three months.
The Workers Compensation Board sued Jay-Z for $18,000 in fines, though sources reportedly say that the figure is the result of a clerical error.

Hov be making news left,right and center..this article is kinda weak though.Hov stay winning.
hahahah 18k lol , he probably gon walk by and pay in cash then hit starbucks
damn right, a dinner wit beyonce cost em 17K at one point
HHDX POSTED NEWS ON JAY-Z BEING SUED FOR 18K SERIOUSLY.?..WHOSE IDEA WAS IT TO POST THIS ARTICLE TO DRIVE TRAFFIC TO YOUR WEBSITE? ALL JAY WILL DO IS GATHER ALL THE RANDOM PENNIES IN HIS GLOVE COMPARTMENT TO PAY THAT FINE..SMH
18K? That’s news?
Is anyone fucking surprised? Dude’s ethically bankrupt but assholes still think he “owns” the Nets… Just another COON frontman for rich white. He might have “paper” but look how he handles his business when it comes to paying BLACK folks.
1. The fact that you think the workers are black folk shows how backwards you think…. (no where does it say that)
2. The article says that it was later paid…
3. The article says the source believes there is an error
The fuck does this have to do with YMCMB? Jay-Z old and washed up. He need to save that 18k for retirement. He ain’t gonna be making any paper in 2012.
you retards just don’t get it do you?
You sir are a faggot.
@wow
Why the fuck is you calling me a fag? I bet you be the undercover brother, taking that dick on the DL.
Because you support a known fagget rapper (Weezys Fuckin Baby) so u must be a fag as well.
Bro, he wasn’t talking to that dude. He called me a fag. Fuck him and fuck you too and fuck YMCMB.
Eh… not even I myself took this seriously and thought it was “newsworthy”. 18K to him is nothing. Why would he risk anything over it? Albeit he’s a slimeball and dream merchant…
Fuck were they thinking, of course there has never been a missed payment, hes paid on the highest level and isn’t worried about money the slightest bit.
rich motherfuckers can get greedy too.
Worker’s Comp? They like whack rappers. Try as they may they couldn’t get em on the hook hahaha
Hes too worried about his rep to miss a payment. He doesnt want that shit on his resume. Hes clean.
wow his lawyer did it
Funny how he wears a JESUS chain. I hope God has NO MERCY on Jayz and his satanic soul! KILLUMINATTI!!!!!!
lol,religious freaks are even more entertaining than both stans and traditional haters.Jesus proud of you son
Funny how you attack Christians, but dont deny Jayz is Satanic! You may not be as dumb as the comment you wrote!
