I won't lie, Country Grammar was my nerdy little white boy jam back in the day, I might peek in on this in a bit.

One of these days I have to research how big stars get into tax trouble. Are there various reasons? Is it just that they didn't want to pay the big sum that April? Because, like when someone wins a million dollars, they get all of that million dollars, and it's not until the next January-April where they have to pay almost half of it to Irwin. But until then, they're sitting on a cool mil, and I would guess it would be easy to lose your head and spend a giant chunk of it. Is that how most people get into tax trouble, or are there other reasons perhaps? Normal people with normal jobs have their taxes automatically taken from their paychecks. These big stars are independent contractors who have to pay taxes themselves, and sometimes it's hard to figure out how much they owe.

It's like when Red Foxx,Willie Nelson or Wesley Snipes got in trouble for not paying their taxes,I don't feel sorry for them. I am sure Nelly made huge money back in the day.
As far as the "hard to figure out how much they owe" thing,get an accountant.

I remember some of his hits. If anything, he owes me for the trauma.

Also, again, no one, least of all Nelly, is f***ing begging for money here. Literally all people are asking FANS to do, not you, clearly, but his FANS, is to listen to a damn song. You don't have to be this f***ing adamant about your lack of caring.

After he topped the Superbowl, he shoulda went to H&R Block.
Finances are #1. Take your receipts down and write it. #2 pencil is a winner, make sure you remeber.

I'm in on streaming some Nelly. Even his terrible Suite/Sweat CDs brought me a lot of laughs back in the day from cracking on him with my friends. I don't know how many times me and my buddy mocked Tim McGraw's portion of that "Over and Over Again" song.
The outrage on the first page is also good for a few laughs. Granted the "you owe him" line from the author was dumb, but acting like helping out a celebrity in financial trouble is some kind of insane deed... I don't know what to tell you. I'm streaming Spotify with the sound off while I'm doing other things... I'm hardly breaking my back here.

And can we stop referring to someone holding a different opinion as "outrage"? I'm perfectly non-phased by this either way, just came upon the topic in the middle of marathoning Daredevil (great show btw) and took a few seconds to give my 2 cents. It's kind of a thing we do here.
I agree if the fans wanna help, that's their call. I wont be helping the rich guy that thought he could avoid Mike Rotunda and believe only he should be doing that, however.

So if Hot in Herre is around four minutes long, by my (potentially dubious) maths it would take one person over 3,066 years to listen to it enough times to pay Nelly's taxes back. Or 3,066 people one year.

Ya know..I figured my taxes wrong last year and ended up owing about $900. Because lots of you have "liked" my posts, why not go ahead and GIVE ME SOME f***ING MONEY!?! Nelly is a little bitch doing a bitch move. Pay your damn taxes or serve your time. I hate how nobody feels they should be responsible for their actions anymore. Same bullshit I've seen in 12 step meetings(Mind you not all 12 steppers are like this...) "Hi, I'm Rick and SOCIETY has made me an alcoholic."

So I checked all my books twice, made a few calls, and crunched some numbers.
I'm in the clear, I definitely don't owe Nelly anything.
