Hip Hop legend, Xzibit recently paid off $233K in taxes and he had some wise words for anyone who is in the spot he was.

“…This is a cautionary message to all my fellow entertainers and entrepreneurs, PAY YOUR TAXES!!,” he captioned a photo taken at the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration. “I made the mistake of trusting people with my financial responsibilities and ended up f*****.”

Of course, he went on to mention how this lifted a burden off his back, he also thanked everyone that has supported him throughout the years.

The receipt in the Instagram photo shows that Xzibit owed money from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2016.

Shoutout to X to the Z.

This is by no means a “floss” this is a cautionary message to all my fellow entertainers and entrepreneurs, PAY YOUR TAXES!! I made the mistake of trusting people with my financial responsibilities and ended up fucked. People love to spread false and inaccurate information in this day and age, and I suffered for almost a damn decade getting all of this back in order. Stop buying Shit you don’t need, take care of your future and family. If you can’t buy it 3 times…guess what? You can’t afford to buy it once. I wiped all of my debt out and it feels like I’ve had a 300 LB gorilla off my back. No one will take care of your business better than YOU! For those who were celebrating my down time, pls, #keepthatsameenergy and let’s see if all you people in the same place I was, can come out the other side, in tact. Thank you to everyone that supported me thru the tough times and brace yourself for what is now on its way. #openbarentertainment #BrokenGround #KingMaker
