Marshall Mathers aka Eminem | Rapper and Producer | $230 Million
His rise to the top may have been plagued with struggle, but these days? Eminem is consistently ranked among the highest-earners when it comes to entertainment and reportedly makes $20 million a year. That’s quite a leap from his early beginnings in Detroit. However, back at his peak, he easily makes $30 – $50 million. Eminem went from being a high school drop-out who worked various odd jobs to pay off his electricity bills, to becoming one of the most respected rappers and producers in the scene.
As of writing, Eminem has got 15 Grammy’s to his name and sold over 170 million albums worldwide, making him the ninth best-selling artist of all time after Pink Floyd, Rihanna, Led Zepellin, Madonna, Elton John, Michael Jackson, Elvis, and The Beatles. But the rapper’s real achievement? Hailey Mathers. His daughter is now all grown-up and is also making a name for herself as an influencer.
