Kanye West Is Reportedly Worth $6.6B After Gap Deal

    Update: Forbes magazine has entered the chat to dispute Yeezy’s net worth with a new evaulation. Read about the latest update here.

    [This post has been updated. The following was originally published on March 17, 2021.]

    Kanye West became a billionaire in April 2020 when Forbes reported the rap superstar crossed the rare threshold. Thanks primarily to his adidas Yeezy sneaker line, Ye had an estimated net worth of $1.3 billion. Now, almost a year later, that net worth has allegedly skyrocketed thanks to Kanye’s deal with Gap.

    On Wednesday (March 17), Bloomberg claimed Kanye’s net worth is now a whopping $6.6 billion. According to the report, Ye’s sneaker and apparel business with adidas AG and Gap Inc. is valued at $3.2 billion to $4.7 billion by UBS Group AB. The bank estimated the new Gap collaboration, which fans can expect to hit stores this summer, could be worth $970 million of that total.

    To put his wealth into perspective, Kanye reportedly has a music catalog worth $110.5 million, $122 million in cash and stocks and over $1.7 billion in other assets, including a large investment in SKIMS, Kim Kardashian’s clothing line.

    Ye has come a long way since claiming he was $53 million in debt in 2016. In February of that year, he took to Twitter to ask Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to invest $1 billion in his work. Zuckerberg could’ve received a handsome return on his investment if he decided to go into business with Kanye.

    Kanye and JAY-Z have been proving Hip Hop is one of the world’s most lucrative businesses. A few weeks ago, Hov sold half of his Ace of Spades champagne brand to luxury giant LVMH and later topped that by selling a significant TIDAL stake to Square Inc. run by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.

      1. I would 1. imagine they had a pre-nup and 2. assume she is worth an awful lot as well seeing how a big portion of his money is in her clothing label.

      1. Or rather look at it like a person who’s been through a lot and prevailed..he beat the odds. Kinda weird..this culture has a fascination with illumaniti and the dark arts ..where we credit success to those energies.

        1. @Hmm preach!!! These dudes here on demon time talking about a mom that passed away with no evidence of being respectful, sympathizing nor being supportive at all. The idiot you responded to is living in so much hate, hurt. Let Ye bask while they figure out whom to hate on next. As if their fav celebrities aren’t going under the knife themselves. Or maybe they’re just right wing extremists that frequent sites like this to spread hate. Sad little lives. I lol at their comments all the time.

          1. What do politics have to do with this I’ve voted for neither parties your just a paid troll who probably is responding to yourself ur probably Hmm..

    1. That’s more MAGA money for him. I’m pretty sure he’s still a Repuppetcan so they going to stay funding him. He’s their version of Uncle Ruckus.

      1. But yet here you are worried about what the next man eat like it makes you poop. Get a life bruh and move on.

        1. But you’re the one butt hurt about one little comment, I think you’re the one that needs to get a life if you’re this easily offended, snowflake.

    2. Jeffree Star will be happy to hear this. Maybe he, Ye, and Diddy can plan a Spring Retreat together with some of that money.

    3. worth all of that money and still picking on the little man i mean business. if bernie sanders had his way he wouldn’t have all that money.

        1. Man…GAP is bullshit $30 t-shirts that melt the first time you try to wash them. I don’t know any white people that mess with the GAP. I do see a lot walking through the door but most of us with common sense stay far away. Let’s just say GAP is for suckers.

I will shamely think about Bruce Jenner. Somehing about that booty got me going crazy. After all my minds telling me no but my body. Make sure you say your prayers, Jesus is watching you. Good night and god bless you my children.

      1. People with no money would say something like that. But a billion dollars would help a bit and in the long run if he does go bankrupt you can give yourself a pat in the back

    6. No matter how much money and power black people get, they will still complain. The world isn’t big enough for these animals.
