Lion, Rastafarian or reincarnated, he is still Calvin
Cordozar Broadus, Jr. to the Internal Revenue
Service.
On February 8th, the IRS hit Snoop D-O-double-G
with a tax lien claiming the rapper owes
$546,270.29 in unpaid back taxes according to
documents obtained by TMZ.

The documents claim the "Gin & Juice" MC owes
$101, 952.44 in unpaid taxes for 2009 and
$444,317.85 in 2011. One possible reason for
Snoop's back rent could be him paying back
another tax lien from the IRS back in 2011 for
roughly $467,000 in back taxes dating back to
2008.
Forbes reports that Snoop Dogg raked in $14
million in 2011 and $11 million in 2009 while
recently only pulling in $8 million in 2012. With a
new documentary arriving on March 15th and his
12th studio album expecting a Spring release
(with the DVD of the documentary) it looks like
Snoop's lucrative 2013 could partially go to Uncle
Sam.
