Nov. 16 2021, Published 2:28 p.m. ET
Lil Pump is accused of owing $1.6 million in back taxes and Uncle Sam is on the hunt for the money.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, the Internal Revenue Service has slapped the 21-year-old rapper (real name: Gazzy Garcia) with a massive federal tax lien.
The lien, filed against Pump’s $5-million Miami mansion, reveals Pump failed to pay $1,676,738.65 on his 2018 bill. The document wants Pump if he doesn’t cough up the money quickly the IRS will begin the process of seizing his property.
Pump seems to be having a bit of financial trouble as this isn’t his first tax lien.

As RadarOnline.com first reported, back in April, the IRS filed a separate tax lien against Pump over unpaid 2019 taxes. The document accused the rapper of owing $89,378.69 for the year.
After we broke the story, Pump took to social media to try and deny the existence of the lien. "Do not believe the internet, that shit is all cap bro.”
Pump proceeded to flash his diamond bracelet shouting into the camera, “90 thousand that is on my wrist right now. Another 90, that’s on my neck.”
“Don’t play with my body," he added. “Look, I have made over 15 million dollars, you know what the tax bill on 15 million dollars is? Bit*h, 90k ain’t sh*t to me. Stop playing with my body,” Pump ended.
He denied owing any money despite the official paperwork filed by the IRS, which is interesting now that the government is coming after him not for another $1.6 million.

The tax issues aren’t the only problem for Pump. In August, American Express sued the rapper and his company Lil Pump Touring. The suit accuses the defendants of breach of contract over their failure to pay a $26,233.34 bill.
The suit is seeking full damages plus interest.
