The Richest Rappers And Rap Producers On The Planet

If there’s ever been a music genre where pretty much everything was about money, it’s hip-hop and rap music. If the lyrics are anything to go by, they’re all filthy rich and they’re only getting wealthier as time goes by. But is that really the truth?

 

Thankfully, we can answer that question for you and say “yes.” Without further ado: rich rappers! Or people who made their money off rap music.

 

 

Birdman
Not talking about the superhero from that Oscar-winning movie. He’s worth $150 million, but mostly because he owns the Cash Money Records label.

 

 

50 Cent
Ol’ Fiddy is also worth $150 million, so he might want to consider getting himself a new artist name.

Ronald Slim Williams
This is Birdman’s brother, co-owner of the Cash Money Records label and the guy who spent $20 million less than his brother.

 

 

Usher
While most of his music doesn’t really qualify as rap, it’s hard to deny that at least a huge chunk of that $180 million net worth he’s built up isn’t coming from the hip-hop and rap scene.
