A Hip-Hop club in Philadelphia is under fire for allegedly filing false returns and underreporting profits. Palmer Social Club, a “private” club and after-hours hangout is popular in rap circles in the region. Palmer’s principal owner Michael Weiss, 46, is accused of underreporting profits by more than $1.6 million dollars and registering the club as a non-profit. Weiss allegedly gave the night spot’s accountant bogus paper work, which he knew would be used for tax returns. An attorney for Weiss has denied all charges and stated that the government’s calculations of the clubs profits are wrong. Unless the matter is resolved, it will go trial.
