Relations have gone icy between Wyclef Jean and Jacob the Jeweler.

Wyclef was one of Jacob’s best customers and was the first rappers ever to name-check the jeweler on a record back in 2000.

Now, Jacob the Jeweler, real name Jacob Arabov, is suing Wyclef for more than $300,000 in unpaid jewelery after “repeated demands for payment” were ignored.

Between March 2002 and January 2006, Wyclef purchased more than $750,000 worth of Jewelery from Jacob’s company. According to court papers, Jacob says the rapper still owes him $319,680 of it.

Jacob the Jeweler is current serving two and a half years for lying to the cops investigating a money laundering operation.
