Eminem is the Fourth Wealthiest Rapper Alive, Worth $190 million

Wednesday, October 17th was rapper Eminem’s 46th birthday. Its a perfect time to benchmark the accomplishments of this entertainer’s wealth, with him being the fourth wealthiest hip-hop artist alive. Real name Marshal Mathers, the rapper earned his wealth by dominating the hip-hop world when he became a household name in the early 2000s. Coming from humble beginnings, the artist broke free from poverty through talent, and dedication to his music.

Eminem was brought to the attention of the now billionaire hip-hop producer Dr. Dre, who’s success over the past three decades is also lauded. At the time, Dre was immensely successful, but hadn’t reached billionaire status and was looking for new talent to keep his name in the game. Notoriously savvy about up and coming artists that he brings under his wing, including Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, and 50 Cent, Dr. Dre heard of Eminem through his rap battling endeavors. Soon after hearing Eminem’s talent, he signed the young rapper from Detroit to his label Aftermath, in 1999. He became one of the best selling artists of the 2000s, and has gone on to sell 220 million records worldwide.

Eminem would also star in the hit film “8 mile” for which he won an academy award for best original song, the single “Lose Yourself.” He stands out as the first rapper to win such an award with a hip-hop song. He has recently released a new album that garnered much critical and financial success. With a net worth of $190 million, he ties with Drake currently as the 4th wealthiest hip-hop artist alive.
