Swizz Beatz with fist

What’s yours is mine, baby. This includes your debt. People usually use the phrase “what’s yours is mine” as their reasoning for feeling privileged enough to partake in the riches that their significant other has achieved. Rarely is this phrase so proudly used in the matter of debts, loans and tax liens.

According to the NY Post, Swizz Beatz has again been hit by the tax man. According to public records, the fiancé of Alicia Keys — who’s pregnant with Beatz’s child — was slapped with an IRS lien of $652,727 on June 3 for unpaid 2008 income tax. The music producer, real name Kasseem Dean, has had a string of liens filed against him and his former wife, Mashonda, in New York, Georgia and California. Their debts stand at about $2.2 million.

A lawyer for Beatz said,

“We have been discussing the issue with the government for years and are currently negotiating an amicable resolution of the dispute.”

Alicia Keys: “I Am Very Much In Love”

What’s yours is mine, baby? For some, no. Immediately after this article was published a few cynical commenters referred to Swizz’ debt with his ex-wife as being the reason why he impregnated Alicia so quickly. He wants to marry her purse. I disagree and do believe that he cares for Alicia and her finances are not his reason for being with her, but I can also see why someone’s mind would go there. Here is why….

In marriage you are supposed to be “one.” Once you enter that state of holy matrimony you become a team, and the “I’s” and “me’s” are supposed to transform into “us” and “we.” Does this union also include your partner’s debts? Does this mean that Alicia should also be responsible for Swizz’s debt? Since they are on the verge of marriage it will become hers as well soon after right? In a short word – Yes.

    Anyone remember Scott Storch? White millionaire producer, he is currently homeless, messing with the IRS was his demise!!! Alicia has made a very big mistake, this guy will be broke in 2 yrs. and she, if choosing him as a child’s father is any indication as her ability to assess character, is going down with him!!! She could have and should have done better and I am quite frankly disappointed!! I do not understand why she is still finding the need to be street, just be the lady you are Alicia!!!

    If swizz is smart he would make sure not even a quarter comes out of Alicia Keys pocket to help him. Do it on his own, My advice is never allow a black woman spend money on you in anyway.

    “Since they are on the verge of marriage it will become hers as well soon after right? In a short word – Yes.”

    Not so fast. It depends on what state they get married in. In some states, premarital debts of each individual remain the debt of that individual even after getting married. Same goes for assets. Now if they were to get a house together, 50/50, and his tax debt is not resolved, the house could be the subject of a lient. Alicia would be wise to keep debts and assets separate until Swizz clean his financial house. For those who think Swizz has money, unless you’re his CPA who tracks all his expenses and income streams, you never know exactly what his financial health is right now. If he’s making $750,000 per beat, at say 2 hits per year ($1.5 million), but buys 10 ferraris at $150,000 each, then that money is already gone. Not to mention maintaining a mansion or two, child support, regular monthly household expenses, bad investments, etc., and the money could be quickly eroded.

    Hey I am a Alicia Keys fan however, I do believe that before she marries Swiss she should allow him to pay what he owes. He didn’t make that debt when they were together. I believe that people make mistakes in relationships and break up. They just might be a good couple; I really wish her the best. BEAWARE Alicia Keys

    His lawyer states, they have been having discussions with the government about this for years and are working on resolving this issue. I would say Alicia knows about this and maybe she will help maybe she won’t. The only thing the govenment will be able to touch of hers is anything their names are in after the marriage.
