A recent tax audit has taken the total amount Lil Kim owes the IRS into six figures.

The Queen Bee has been wrestling with financial troubles for the past decade, owing the tax man back payment for seven consecutive years betweeen 2002 and 2009.

A recent update added another $86,000 to the Brooklyn rapper's bill for the 2009 tax year, bringing the total amount to an eye-watering $1,026,862.42.

Kimmy rep has told TMZ the 37-year-old is hiring "a team of legal experts" to help resolve the issue with the IRS and federal authorities.

No doubt Lil Kim's new cashflow problems are providing Nicki Minaj with ammunition for her next diss record.
