*Lawyers for Tynesha Nicole Dykes, the mother of Young Jeezy’s 9-year-old son, released a statement yesterday citing their client’s financial state, presumably to build support for her recent court filing to increase her child support payments now that Jeezy is in a position to pay more.
"Tynesha Dykes is living in a HUD project in rural Georgia and is currently receiving a mere $178 per month in child support," her lawyer Jim Rockefeller said in the statement. "Mr. Jenkins is one of the fastest rising hip-hop/rap performers on the Billboard Chart, with well over a million records in sales in the past year and a mansion in Atlanta. He lives in high style, tours the country and is in the close company of stars like Jay-Z and Beyonce.
Rockefeller denies earlier reports of Dykes seeking $20,000 per month from Jezzy, calling it "pure fantasy spread by the rapper's publicity machine."
Rockefeller reminds folks of an MTV.com report which stated that Jeezy, whose real name is Jay Jenkins, had opened his Atlanta mansion to victims of Hurricane Katrina. In his child support deposition, however, Rockefeller said, "Jenkins denied owning a mansion, or any home whatsoever, or even a car, for that matter. He also denied owning any jewelry, despite the fact that everywhere he appears he is wearing a huge diamond snowman pendant. In short, he testified that he has no income and receives only $35/ per diem."
Rockefeller ends the release by saying: "This is yet another example of the misogynist hip-hop /rap culture bashing women and de-emphasizing the libertine lifestyles of its male stars. Ms. Dykes is not an opportunist, she is a loving mother who only wants a decent lifestyle for her son."
