TOP 10 Richest Rappers in the World (by Net Worth)

Ever wondered who the richest rappers in the world are? This ranking looks visualizes the recent years of the rappers with the highest net worth!

Rappers are notorious for big houses, fancy cars and extravagant purchases; and when you take a look at just how much some of them earn, it’s no wonder.

Even though this video is about the top 10, let's take a closer look at the richest ones:

- Dr. Dre is considered to be one of the best hip hop producers of all time. Andre Young started his career with N.W.A in the 80’s, and then went solo. He is also the founder of the “Beats by Dr. Dre” series, which was sold to Apple for $3 billion several years ago.
- Sean Combs does just about everything; rapping, producing, acting, songwriting and he’s also an entrepreneur on top of all that. Otherwise known as his stage name ‘Diddy’, Combs is one of the richest rappers in the world.
- Jay-Z is an American rapper and entrepreneur from Brooklyn, New York. In fact, the majority of Jay-Z’s net worth has come from his smart investments; in clothing lines, record companies, nightclubs and so on.
- Eminem is without a doubt the most successful white hip hop artist of all time. When he first start battle rapping in Detroit, he was subject to a lot of racial hate, being one of the only white rappers to be performing at the shows.
Another issue that Eminem suffered from when we was younger, was being bullied at school. He moved around a lot as a child, and as a result struggled to make friends with people.
Eminem’s success story is phenomenal, considering he has become the richest white rapper in the world, and was responsible for changing the game entirely.

On the flip side, however, there are other rappers who aren't so well off. The most prominent is 50 Cent, who filed for bankruptcy in 2017.
