Rapper Foxy Brown and R&B singer Toni Braxton are reportedly in tax trouble. AllHipHop.com reports that both performers have had liens filed against them this year for failing to pay their taxes. Brown reportedly owes the Internal Revenue Service 641-thousand-588-dollars in federal taxes that were to be paid to the state of New York. In June, a tax lien was placed against the New York rapper for missing tax payments in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Allhiphop.com says the state of California issued a lien against Braxton and her husband, Mint Condition keyboard player Keri Lewis, for 79-thousand-315-dollars in back taxes in March. The lien isn’t the first time that Braxton has been in financial trouble. The singer filed for bankruptcy protection in 1998 after she amassed more than one-million-dollars in debt.
