Wyclef Sued By Jacob The Jeweler

by reign on July 31st, 2008

http://media.defsounds.com/uploads/assets/2100/2118/9519/asset.jpgHip-Hop jeweler, Jacob Arabov, is suing Hatian rapper, Wyclef Jean. Arabov, who is currently incarcerated, claims the rapper owes him for an unpaid bill totaling over $300,000. The suit claims the Haitian rapper bought the jewelry between March 2002 and January 2006 for $765,100. Jacob and Company Incorporated says Wyclef still owes $319,680, despite "repeated demands for payment."

Jacob The Jeweler is a diamond dealer who is best known for decorating many celebrities with expensive custom made diamond jewelry. He was sentenced in June to 2 1/2 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to falsifying records and giving false statements to investigators about a multi-state drug ring. He was accused of helping to launder over $270 million in drug money for the Black Mafia Family (BMF) and began serving a 30 month federal prison sentence last month.

No comment as of yet from Wyclef or representatives for him.

And most of y’all thought Jacob was gona run out of cake? Think again, sonn will still eat of these dumb ass niggas that’s willing to spend gwap on bling & not on properties. Hell you know ¾ of the industry got a piece from duke. And It’s “Fuck you Pay me” to Wyclef yo.
I wouldn’t Cross Jacob, the man took his sentence like a man, didn’t even couch to the judge, all he could have done is point the finger,…but nah, duke went in, plus we all know his Jail cell looks better then most our cribs, he probably reading this shit right now,…how can you not rout for Jacob?

What y’all don’t understand is that Jacob had no choice but to go to jail. He had two choices, either snitch and be under the witness protection program or go to jail. Option A is a good option if you’re not as famous as our boy Jacob here. You can change your identity and go work crappy jobs, but Jacob can’t do that man, and everyone knows his face. So he chose the latter, and do his time, which is not much and still have his business when he comes out. Know your shit.
