What is Jay-Z’s net worth?

Jay-Z is an American rapper, entrepreneur, and investor with an estimated net worth of $2.5 Billion.

He has become one of the bestselling musicians ever after having sold 100+ million records and received 21 Grammy awards. Like many other successful athletes and musicians, Jay-Z didn’t let music be the be-all and end-all of his career. He diversified and began investing in nightclubs, restaurants, his clothing line, and record labels.

Early Life

Shawn Carter was born on the 4th of December 1969 in Brooklyn, New York, United States.

Shawn was raised in Marcy Houses, a housing project in Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. His mother, Gloria, raised him and his three siblings after their father abandoned them. Shawn attended Eli Whitney High School in Brooklyn until it was closed down.

He then attended the nearby George Westinghouse Career and Technical Education High School with future rappers The Notorious B.I.G. and Busta Rhymes, followed by a stint at Trenton Central High School in Trenton, New Jersey. He never graduated from High School.

Gloria purchased a boom box for Jay-Z’s birthday, initially sparking an interest in music. After this, he began free-styling and writing lyrics, adopting the name ‘Jay-Z’ to honor his mentor ‘Jay-O’.

Music Career

Initially, Jay-Z was selling records out of the trunk of his car.

He had no record deal and was unsigned, so he did whatever he could to try and sell his music.

He founded the record label Roc-A-Fella Records with Damon Dash and Kareem Biggs, which led to them striking a distribution deal with Priority. This allowed Jay-Z to release his debut album, ‘Reasonable Doubt,’ in 1996.

Fast-forward to today, and Jay-Z holds the record for most number-one albums by a solo artist on the US Billboard 200, with 14. He has also had four number-one albums on the Billboard Hot 100.
