SWIZZ CAN'T BEAT $2.2 MIL TAX DEBT WOES



A giant tax bill makes a pretty poor baby shower gift, but that's what the IRS and New York gave singer Alicia Keys' husband, record-producer Swizz Beatz, who owes more than $2.6 million in delinquent taxes, records show. The IRS filed a $283,562 lien against Swizz Beatz on Monday with the New York City Register. The state of New York filed a $134,738 tax warrant against him and his ex-wife, R&B singer Mashonda on Oct. 23. The warrant is filed with the New York County Clerk. The IRS filed a $652,727 lien against Swizz Beatz, real name Kasseem Dean, on June 3 with the Rockland County (N.Y.) Clerk. According to the lien, which you can see here, he owes income taxes from 2008. The state of New York filed a $162,300 tax warrant against Dean and his ex-wife Feb. 4, 2009, with the New York County Clerk. The IRS filed a $556,986 lien against Dean and his ex-wife on Aug. 18, 2008, in Rockland County. They owe 2007 income taxes, according to this public record.
