KANYE WEST—$1.3 BILLION

Rapper, singer, songwriter, and fashion designer, Kanye West, who’s has been excellently successful not just in music but in the fashion industry, too, is reportedly worth a whopping $1.3 billion. Not bad for someone who admitted to being a few million dollars in debt just a few years ago. Well, West is, to his credit, a very talented entrepreneur. West has long expressed interest in fashion, and is the first non-athlete to cooperate with Nike to launch the 2009 Air Yeezys sneakers. His shows are filled to the brim, and his shoes—Yeezys—are a trend among the millennials.

Whatever the man touches seems to turn into gold, so we fully expect him to be worth more than what he currently is in just a few years. His philanthropy includes the Kanye West foundation. Kanye West owns about $120 million in real estate (land, buildings and houses) in the United States. Kim / Kanye’s primary residence is a large real estate located in the Los Angeles suburb of hidden hills, California.
