Jeezy has been hit with a countersuit from one of his former managers after filing a suit against him earlier this year over a financial dispute.
According to court documents obtained by The Jasmine Brand, Solomon Fornie says he saved Jeezy’s career and personal finances when they began working together in 2015 and believes he was never properly compensated.
“I put my finances, my credit, and my reputation on the line to rebuild Jenkins’ career from the ground up,” he wrote in the docs. “He went from foreclosure to Forbes, and now he wants to pretend I was never there.”
Among many things, he says he paid off Jeezy’s homes, covered payroll for his businesses and even borrowed $400k to keep operations running.

He says he’s not only never been repaid for that, but he also worked without commission for five years – and he wants what he’s owed.
Back in February, Jeezy filed suit against both Solomon Fornie and Eddie Bridgeman in an effort to force them to turn over all the books and records.
The rapper allegedly grew frustrated with their management of his finances and claims they have blocked him from seeing financial records which prevents him from winding down Agency 99, the company he co-founded with Fornie to oversee his affairs.
Jeezy also claimed that he found out that Bridgeman was not a licensed accountant years after being brought on board by Fornie.

That matter is still ongoing.
Jeezy has been involved in a number of legal disputes of late with his ex-wife Jeannie Mai accusing him of violating a court order so that she could collect her possessions from their former home.
According to In Touch, Mai turned up to Jeezy’s home in December to collect her possessions, but was denied entry by his house manager.
The Thug Motivation MC had reportedly placed Mai’s belongings in a number of boxes, with a judge ruling that she had 21 days to pick up the items.

Jeezy had asked the judge to modify the order, claiming that he did not feel safe with Mai “being able to walk through the whole house.”
“[Jeezy] does not feel safe having [Jeannie] in his home,” his attorney said. “Given [Jeannie’s] history of attempting to destroy [Jeezy’s] career with misleading information, [Jeezy] would have no way of knowing if [Jeannie] is planting listening devices or cameras in his home.”
Mai claimed that she informed her ex-husband that she would be visiting his home on December 9 and that he offered no objection.

She alleges that once she arrived at the property, Jeezy’s house manager refused to grant her access to the garage where her possessions were being stored.
