So rapper Eve is the latest Philly artist to go through some legal trouble and hers is with someone who REALLY doesn’t play around…the IRS. According to The Detroit News, Eve owes over $357,000 to the IRS in delinquent state and federal taxes. Not only that, it seems to be hurting her life style too. Last month Eve placed her four bedroom, five bathroom Los Angeles mansion up for sale for $2,295,000, But that’s not all of her problems.

This month it was revealed that Eve was part of the federal government’s investigation into her ex-boyfriend, Teodorin Nguema Obiang, son of President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo of Equatorial Guinea. You see, Oliang was setting up front companies (including Eve’s Sweet Pink Inc) in order to launder hundreds of millions of dollars in corrupt funds that were reportedly illegally diverted from Equatiorial Guinea’s gas and oil reserves. (Just in case if you don’t know what front companies are, picture a local corner store that looks like its selling food but really has illegal gambling going on in the backroom.) Here’s to hoping you make it out ok of all this mess Eve, we still love you in the Illadelph.
