Young Jeezy (real name Jay Wayne Jenkins ) is involved in yet another lawsuit accusing him of stealing music. Last month, we reported that Bishop T.D. Jakes was taking legal action against the 37-year-old rapper over the song ‘Holy Ghost’.

And now, theJasmineBRAND.com has exclusively learned that he has been accused of stealing another rappers music to create his hit song “Me Ok” — resulting in a federal lawsuit over the alleged theft.

A hip hop artist named Christopher Syrrakos filed a federal lawsuit against Young Jeezy, Def Jam Records and Universal Music.

The man explains that he is a musician and record producer based in Wisconsin. He says he created a song entitled “13 Shots” and released it in 2009 on his album “Big Chris Uncut“. Syrrakos says he had the song copyrighted in 2014.

The lawsuit says that in May 2014, Young Jeezy released his hit song “Me Ok” as the first single from his album “Seen it All The Autobiography” — which debuted at number 2 on the Billboard 200 chart with sales of 121k.

The musician accuses Jeezy of stealing his song “13 Shots” and using it in his hit song. He says that the rapper never obtained permission or authorization to use his music.

Syrrakos filed suit against Jeezy and his record labels for copyright infringement and is demanding a permanent injunction against the rappers album was continuing to be sold along with unspecified monetary damages.
