It’s Tax Season And AKA Has Free Advice
It’s Tax Season And AKA Has Free Advice! If there’s one rapper or celebrity as a whole who can speak on what it’s like to be on front pages because of tax woes, it’s AKA.
Over the years, AKA has had his far share of of trouble with the taxman and publicly so. Back in 2017, there were reports that AKA allegedly owed the South African Revenue Service (Sars) R355 676.98. SARS was reportedly permitted to attach assets belonging to the rapper at the Johannesburg High Court after failing to settle a massive unpaid income tax bill.
AKA rubbished the claims blaming his on again off again management saying, “Since I left that company, they’ve been struggling to keep the lights on. If I was them I’d plant stories in the media about me too. Desperate times. Desperate measures. Every time I close a deal or make another move … a negative story about me comes out in the papers. Have you noticed? Shame. That’s all the poor guy can do. God will deal with him. If he hasn’t already,” said AKA at the time.
Now that tax season is upon us, AKA has taken to twitter offering some advice to fellow celebs. “It’s tax season yall!! Make sure you don’t fumble the bag … stay out of those Sunday papers ya heard,” he tweeted.
With all that drama with SARS, we’d say AKA knows what he’s talking about and hopefully his fellow celebs are taking notes. Other rappers who’ve found themselves on front pages because of SARS include Cassper and Da Les.
