The 42-year-old rapper — real name Joseph Cartagena — was accused of stiffing the federal government out of roughly $700k in income taxes for 2007 and 2008.

The IRS should be a top priority for every rapper in the game. Before they go crazy wasting money they need a good accountant to avoid things like this from happening. Hopefully Fat Joe avoids jail time.

Pay yo taxes nigga
just put 50% away, its that simple
FIRST JA, THEN BUCK, NOW JOE….OFFICER RICKY U NEXT! DONT MESS WITH 50
lmao why is it always rich niggas that get caught for this shit
JOE had three choices on how to deal with this issue…..
1 – he could of taken all that money he put in to his weight loss and given that to the IRS…
2 – or he could have saved that money stayed fat not payed the IRS and gone to jail for two years and lost all the weight doing jail time…and came out 10 or 11 months later 700k better off and slim naturally no stomach stitches or tucks….
3 – he could of opened a fast chicken joint with rick ross…and got fatter…
Uncle Sam will always get his cut. Tax Evasion is how Al Capone got popped.
I guess throwing money on strippers isn’t tax deductible. Hope he beats the case.
This shit is dumb, Wesley Snipes avoided 5 mil and got time but then i also seen Wayne avoid taxes and it got swept under the table … IRS likes to pick and choose.
Its simple… just pay.

@RTLA Wayne shit got swept under the rug cause he paid his back taxes Monday dumbass…..>>>>> http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/17/lil-wayne-taxes-miami_n_2315615.html
