Ye, 46 – who has been vacationing in Italy the last month with his wife, Bianca Censori, 28 – is now facing a lawsuit stemming from the apparently rotting conditions at the home and his supposed treatment of his workers.

The U.S. Sun obtained a copy of the lawsuit filed by Tony Saxon on Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging that Ye fired his former project manager for refusing to remove all the windows and electricity in the home.

He reportedly instructed Tony to move large generators into the home, but his employee “expressed concerns about the extreme danger of such actions.”

As a result, the Heartless rapper allegedly told Tony he would be “considered an enemy if he did not comply” and eventually told him to “get the hell out.”

The lawsuit further noted: “When Plaintiff refused to engage in unlawful conduct or to engage in activity that would further cause him physical injury, Mr. Ye responded: ‘If you don’t do what I say, you’re not going to work for me, I’m not gonna be your friend anymore and you’ll just see me on TV,’” to which Tony said he didn’t watch TV.

Ye ended up firing Tony on November 5, 2021, for not following his requests.

Tony worked for the Donda rapper for two months, also as his security guard and caretaker of the property.

According to the lawsuit, Tony claimed that Ye promised to pay him $20,000 a week but has not followed through on their agreement.

Tony also claimed that he was working 16-hour days and sleeping on the floor while coordinating the renovation.

The lawsuit said Tony is suing Ye for multiple labor code violations, unpaid wages, and wrongful retaliatory termination.

This is far from the only legal trouble that Ye has gotten himself into lately.

The performer is currently a defendant in several ongoing lawsuits as he’s being sued by ex-Donda Academy teachers, former employees at Yeezy, and even his ex-manager.

However, a source recently told The U.S. Sun that the Chicago native “doesn’t give a crap” about the lawsuits, which his legal team is handling, as he focuses on other endeavors.

“Ye has joked before he likes being sued, he really doesn’t care about all that, he’s been a part of lawsuits for years, it’s just part of the fame game to him,” the insider said.

“He’s having the time of his life at the moment traveling around with Bianca, she’s his rock, and they have a tight team of influential people who are working for Yeezy.

“They have been joined by friends, his new CEO Dov Charney, assistants, and his regular sushi chef, he’s blowing a fair bit of money, but he feels he’ll be back in business soon.

“Ye isn’t even using a phone number right now, he just has an email address which he sometimes uses for FaceTime, but he’s pretty off the grid.”

But he hasn’t been out of sight of photographers who’ve captured many photos of Ye and Bianca roaming around Italy in recent weeks.

The power couple have confused fans with their interesting attire during their getaway – even angering local citizens with Bianca’s super revealing outfits.

They are also in hot water by Italian police after photos circulated of them in a compromising position on a boat in Venice, which is being investigated.
