7 Weird Ways To Bug-Proof Your Picnic
Now Fat Joe has joined the ranks of bill-avoiding rappers. The high roller is said to owe Uncle Sam thousands in back taxes.
The 39-year-old celeb, who is also known for publicly feuding with rapper 50 Cent and being arrested for assault, has been cited by the feds as owing $139,000 in federal and state taxes.
The bucks don't stop with the feds, though. Fat Joe was also hit with a $71,611 mortgage bill from his bank for his $2 million Plantation, Fla., mansion that recently went up for sale.
And there's more.
Fat Joe, who is apparently "Sloppy Joe" when it comes to his finances, also owes the state of New Jersey $2,200, $31,987 and $105,000 in tax liens.
In the past, Joe was accused by the wife of former Terror Squad member Big Pun, Liza Rios, of having shady business dealings. According to Rios, Fat Joe didn't divvy up the profits of her husband's publishing sales properly, and, as a result, the widow and her children were left penniless and were forced to live in a shelter. Big Pun died of a heart attack in 2000.

Can't stand this guy. He should be happy he made as much money as he did considering he's not even a talented rapper. He's only good at organizing collabos so he can ride other hot rappers' coattails on a song.

I am surprised this clown can count to more than he has fingers and toes. Another no talent loser. Just keep this story on file and fill in the blank of the name of the next rapper/hiphop moron who can't handle money.
