Donald Trump was elected President of the United States, but many Americans are not happy about that out- come.
Thousands of citizens took to the streets in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Wash- ington, Oakland, and other cities across the country to protest against the Republican candidate winning the White House.
Much of the anger stemmed from the fact Democratic nom- inee Hillary Clinton won more votes than Trump but came out short in the Electoral College count.
Protestors also took issue with Trump’s rhetoric throughout the campaign that was viewed by many as racist, misogynistic, and Islamopho- bic.
Atlanta rapper T. I. joined one of the protests. He filmed the scene and posted videos on
songs hit marks.

Rick Ross
Recent reports began circu- lating that Maybach Music Group boss, Rick Ross owed the IRS over $5 million in taxes.
Ross has released a state- ment about the situation:
I’ve been fortunate enough to experience financial success on a large scale through both my music career and my many business ventures. With this type of financial success comes financial responsibility. As artists we are blessed to be able to make money, but on the same note, are held account- able for our federal tax obliga- tions just like everyone else. I am fully aware of my current dealings with the IRS. This issue arose from an incorrect filing by a prior accountant for the 2012 tax year. My new team of accountants have cor- rected the prior filing, and as anyone who has dealt with the IRS understands, it is a process. We have already sat- isfied a large portion of these issues and I can assure you that we are working very closely with the IRS to bring a full resolution shortly and will continue moving forward in a positive direction!
