       *Jay-Z's former business partner Damon Dash is said to owe over $2 million in state taxes in New York, reports the New York Post.

       The 36-year-old former CEO and co-founder of Roc-A-Fella Records sits on a reported $50 million fortune, but has reportedly failed to pay taxes on the lot.      

       Dash, whose pricey possessions include a $400,000 chauffeured Maybach sedan, isn't the only tax deadbeat, according to the state of New York. Cicely Tyson reportedly owes $124,320, while Ben Vereen is $119,825 in the hole. Also, Ornette Coleman, who won the Pulitzer Prize for music this year, owed $7,814, the Post said.      

       In April, Dash filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against his accountant for submitting several years of erroneous tax returns on his behalf.
