KANYE WEST – EST. $3.2 BILLION

Hip-hop superstar Kanye West has gone a long way from where he started in Hollywood. He first gained international fame for his The College Dropout album in 2004 and eventually amassed over 21 Grammy wins. Since then, West became a record-breaking artist and a renowned producer, establishing his record label G.O.O.D. West then branched out from making music to heading a massive and successful sneaker brand in the world.

He is the first non-athlete personality who scored brand partnerships with Nike and Adidas for his Yeezy brand. West’s apparel line and collaborations with Adidas have a worth of $3 billion. This value is apart from the brand’s website income of $100 million! West also gains 10% royalty on net revenues from Adidas. The rapper’s love for fashion transcended to various luxury brand tie-ups, including Louis Vuitton, Bape, and Giuseppe Zanotti. The award-winning rapper also holds a good reputation for his real-estate empire, with multiple estate investments in Los Angeles and Wyoming. West officially reached billionaire status in 2020 with an estimated 3.2 billion net worth.
