MC Hammer Set The Record Straight Over Rumors He Owes The IRS $800,000 "I Put Over 5 Million In My Account"





MC Hammer tried to set the record straight via Twitter after it was reported that he had been sued by the federal government for allegedly owing nearly $800,000 in back taxes. The 51-year-old rapper posted a tweet to his more than three million followers on Twitter about his interaction with the Internal Revenue Service.


'I put over 5 million dollars in my account asked the IRS how much do you want ? They put it in writing, I paid them and got a receipt,' the rapper tweeted. The You Can't Touch This singer posted the message in an apparent response to a TMZ article on Sunday that claimed he and his wife Stephanie were recently sued for $798,033.48 in back taxes.



The article said they had been sued over failure to pay taxes on income earned in 1996 and 1997.
