Xzibit pays off $233K in back taxes

Xzibit has finally paid off his debt to the IRS and he couldn’t be happier.

The rapper shared a photo of a receipt for $233,810 taken at the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration on Instagram Friday morning.

“This is by no means a ‘floss’ this is a cautionary message to all my fellow entertainers and entrepreneurs, PAY YOUR TAXES!!” he wrote as a caption.

Xzibit has long had tax troubles and in 2011 it was reported that he owed the federal government nearly $1 million.

“I made the mistake of trusting people with my financial responsibilities and ended up f—ked,” he continued. “People love to spread false and inaccurate information in this day and age, and I suffered for almost a damn decade getting all of this back in order. Stop buying S–t you don’t need, take care of your future and family. If you can’t buy it 3 times…guess what? You can’t afford to buy it once.”

The sum represents the back taxes the former “Pimp My Ride” host owed for 2007, 2008, 2009, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2016, the receipt shows.

“I wiped all of my debt out and it feels like I’ve had a 300 LB gorilla off my back,” he wrote, before thanking his fans for their support.
