The next time you buy a Nas album, you’re really just handing your money over to the government — because the rapper’s delinquent tax filings have caused Uncle Sam to begin garnishing his wages … TMZ has learned.
Nas is in tax debt up to his eyeballs — $6,000,000!
So the government has finally tired of waiting for Nas to pay up, so they filed documents in the state of Georgia to have his wages garnished — via the music publishing organizations BMI and ASCAP — until the debt is paid off.
So if you like Nas, but hate the government … perhaps you’ll want to find an alternative way to listen to his music. -TMZ
