Q: Green Card holder (through EB2) apply citizenship question
Would that be an issue if a Green Card holder (through EB2) has self-employed or unemployed history during the couple years before he/she applying the US citizenship?
A:
I don't see it as an issue. The green card required you to go to work for the sponsor/employer, but it did not require you to stay indefinitely. Since it takes about 5 years as an LPR to become eligible for naturalization, and you say you've worked the past "couple years" (2-3), it sounds like you fulfilled your commitment to your EB2 employer.
Just be completely truthful on your N-400 application, in all respects.
