Tip (formerly known as T.I.) recently visited Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club to discuss his latest projects, the Iggy situation and more. Although people were tuned in hear him talk about Iggy Azalea, we were presently surprised when Angela Yee brought up the recent tax rumors. News broke late last month (August) that Tip and his wife Tameka “Tiny” Harris has a huge IRS problem on their hands. The IRS filed two tax liens against the couple for unpaid taxes totaling $4.5 million. According to the IRS, the debt stemmed from a 2012 debt of $1,397,283.47 and one from 2013 of $3,173,476.39. Well, Tip didn’t back down from the conversation with The Breakfast Club. “Taxes is something everybody deal with. And we all deal with them different ways and some people are a little more conservative. Some are a little more liberal with it. Some people…kinda you make investments with some of the funds you have going here. Then the return on investments…you know. You know you just balance the scales like that.” “It’s going be to handled. I didn’t know they mean they wanted it like now. Like, right right right now. [laughs]” Tip also adds that he caught wind of the tax lien news only two days before the public heard about it. But, he’s taking on the issue with the IRS with an “it is what it is” type of attitude. The Grand Hustle CEO explains that the great thing about it is he’ll continue to make money and they [IRS] will continue to get paid.
