R Kelly is going to have to drop some more Trapped in Closet episodes to pay this off.
The Jasmine Brand breaks it down.
R. Kelly is accused of screwing over the government to the tune of $2.3 million dollars in unpaid taxes. Now, Uncle Sam is on the hunt for his property and assets to collect on their money — due to the singer’s grand tax debt rising to over $3.2 million dollars for multiple years.
The singer was hit with a brand new Federal Tax Lien on October 7th in Illinois. The official document shows the IRS accusing Kelly of screwing them out of $2,327,444.58 in taxes for the year 2014.
This year alone, the singer has been hit with multiple liens for unpaid taxes for several years. Recently he was hit with a separate Federal Tax lien accusing him of owing $730,683.80 for the 2013.
Several months prior, the IRS filed a lien for $191,614.35 for unpaid taxes for the year 2012. Both of those liens remain active and have yet to be released by the IRS, meaning the singer has not paid off the debt. The grand total for the three liens comes to $3,249,742.73
Kelly has a long history of troubles with Uncle Sam, being accused of screwing the IRS out of back taxes for multiple years. His total debt totaled $6,227,767 for unpaid Federal Taxes during the years 2005-2011.
Someone as rich as R Kelly should have better tax attorneys, go hire Donald Trump’s attorneys and you never will have to pay.
