Rapper Kanye West has been officially declared a billionaire after years of publicly insisting that he belongs to the billionaires club.
The fashion designer has been calling himself a billionaire for years, contradicting Forbes’ estimates at the time.
Last year, the rapper raked in an estimated $150 million, according to Forbes. Jay-Z, the industry’s second-highest-paid artist, made an estimated $81 million, while Drake made $75 million in pretax earnings.
West was worth an estimated $30 million in 2014, according to Forbes.
But in 2016, he tweeted that he was $53 million in debt and asked Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg to invest $1 billion in “Kanye West ideas.”
Now, West’s net worth is estimated to be $1.3 billion, according to Forbes.
The majority of West’s fortune comes not from his music, but from his footwear and apparel brand, Yeezy, which Bank of America valued at $3 billion in 2019.
Forbes estimates that Yeezy alone adds $1.26 billion to the rapper’s personal net worth.
