Detroit News Reports The IRS and state of Georgia claim Grammy Award-winning producer Jermaine Dupri, the beat master who has worked with artists Mariah Carey, Usher, Jay-Z and a stable of other stars, owes more than $3.2 million in delinquent taxes, records show. But his lawyer insists the debt has been paid. The 37-year-old Georgia native, whose full name is Jermaine Dupri Mauldin, has been in an off-again on-again relationship with Janet Jackson. What's owed: The state of Georgia filed a $135,749 lien against him Nov. 17, 2008, in Fulton County Superior Court. The IRS filed a $3,095,004 lien against him Sept. 4, 2008, in the Westchester County (N.Y.) Clerk's office. The liens amount to a little more than the $3.16 million Dupri paid for this Atlanta pad in 2005. His side: Dupri lawyer James Kane did not explain what led to the tax liens being filed but insisted the debt has been paid. "I can assist you in telling you that all of the taxes have been paid and my law firm has been, and is, in the process of getting the liens removed in normal course," Kane wrote in an e-mail. "As to any other information, you can certainly understand under the attorney-client privilege that I am not able make any further comment."
