This can’t be true. Reports are saying that Singer/Songwriter Prince is having finanicial woes. owes more than $227,000 in taxes to his home state of Minnesota for his PRN Music Corporation, which is located in his famous Paisley Park complex near Minneapolis.

The majority of that amount was due back in 2009, with an extra $27,000 thrown on as a penalty for delinquency.

If that isn’t enough, the county’s taxpayer services manager estimates that with all his property combined, the R&B mastermind owes about $450,000 in taxes. If Prince doesn’t rustle up the cash before April 21 or file a written objection, he could face forfeiture on those properties, some of which he’s owned since the ’80s.

I don’t get it. Prince can’t be broke. Why isn’t he paying his bills? Shouldn’t he have “people” whome he pays to handle these sorts of things for him? Artists, Actors and all Entertainers, specifically the Black ones, please pay your taxes and whatever other bills you are required to pay. Especially if you have the cash. The powers that be are not always so thrilled about your success so they are especially waiting for you to slip up so they can have an excuse to harass a young successful Black Entertainer/athlete/actors etc. Don’t give them ammo. Handle your business.
