Grammy-winning rapper T.I., who recently starred in superhero flick Ant-Man, is making headlines this weekend for reportedly owing nearly $5 million in back taxes.

According to reports, the “King of the South’s” money woes goes back to 2012.

Rapper T.I. has been accused of owing more than $4.5 million in unpaid taxes. According to documents obtained by Dailymail.com, the Live Your Life hitmaker owes money from 2012 and 2013. Officials at the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) filed two tax liens against T.I. in Atlanta, Georgia on 10 August (15), with one bill for $1.4 million and the other for $3.2 million. (Philly)

Despite the perceived seriousness, Tip’s camp assured worried fans the matter would be settled.

That’s a lotta cash! Rapper T.I. owes more than $4.5 million in unpaid taxes. The rapper, whose real name is Clifford Harris is trying to fix the situation. “Mr. Harris and his team are working with the appropriate parties to resolve this matter,” his rep tells Us Weekly exclusively. (Us Weekly)

Recently, T.I. revealed his upcoming The Dime Trap album would remind fans of his early pre-fame days.

“I feel like, when you’ve done hits like “Whatever You Like” and “Dead and Gone,” when you do those mainstream kind of “Blurred Lines”-ish kind of records, you don’t go and try to top “Blurred Lines.” You just come to a whole new element, bring it back down and build the process back over again. I’m breaking it all down, back to the element of where my music first began to interest people, and build it all over again.” (Movie Web)

T.I. also talked about how timing and scheduling plays a large role on his career.

“It’s less exposure and more competition. It’s more people fighting for a smaller pie now. I don’t mind, because my hand was already in it. You’ll be hard pressed to pull my hand out of there, but it’s almost like, when you have an amount of time you must invest in a project, time away from home, away from family, the amount of risky situations and environments one must frequent in order to maximize potential, once you really, really estimate these things, it’s like, ‘OK, where is my time better invested?” (Movie Web)
