Ye Lands Into Another Trouble As Malibu Mansion’s Security Guard Sues Him: Deets Inside

As a dedicated follower of Kanye West’s tumultuous journey, it seems like the Malibu Mansion, once a symbol of opulence and grandeur, has now transformed into a magnet for legal troubles. The latest development, a lawsuit filed by a former security guard, Jonathan Monroe, alleging unpaid wages and unfair treatment, adds another layer to the saga.


Although Kanye West, formerly known as Ye, appears to be keeping his distance from the Malibu Mansion, which seems to be plagued with problems, he finds himself embroiled in ongoing issues. In the latest development, the rapper behind Can’t Tell Me Nothing is now confronted with a lawsuit filed by a former security guard who previously worked at the property that has since been sold.

Following the recent sale of the previously mentioned mansion last month, at half the original purchase price, I’ve learned that Kanye West is now encountering a few fresh challenges with his newly acquired property.

According to a report by TMZ, a security guard who works at the rapper’s Malibu estate has recently filed a lawsuit claiming the rapper mistreated him unfairly.

Based on what’s been reported, a former security worker who was employed by Kanye West claims he experienced unfair treatment while working at the specified location.

In question, Jonathan Monroe, serving as the security guard in focus, asserted that Kanye West, famously known as the All of the Lights rapper, hired him for full-time duty at the specified location back in August 2021. Moreover, Monroe disclosed that he was given a $30 hourly wage to safeguard the property when it transformed into a construction site.

Additionally, the ex-employee of Ye claimed that despite putting in 36 to 50 hours of work each week, he was terminated after only two months’ employment, and without receiving the compensation that was initially agreed upon.

According to TMZ’s report, Jonathan Monroe, who claims he was let go three years ago, has said in the lawsuit that he decided to take action due to the accumulated unpaid wages being the main issue.

Instead, the legal documents further disclose that Monroe isn’t just seeking repayment of his outstanding wages, but also intends to recover significant damages from the rapper.

Currently, Monroe is insisting that the rapper pays him his overdue wages, accumulated interest, and also some penalties as compensatory damages. Interestingly, Monroe isn’t the sole ex-employee from the Malibu mansion who has claimed unjust treatment by Ye.

According to Netflix Junkie, when Ye initially acquired the Malibu beachfront property in 2021, it was in excellent shape. But once renovation work started, the beachfront marvel transformed into a chaotic construction site.

The rapper then hired contractor Tony Saxon with the task of renovating the property.

Saxon also shared with The New Yorker that he encountered intruders even during his sleep on the floor, and he was dismissed after voicing his worries about safety.
