JAY-Z – $1 billion  –  Clothing Line

This man does not need any lengthy introduction. If you haven’t heard Jay-Z’s name before, you must have been living under a rock! He is often given credit for being one of the greatest rappers of all time and is heavily regarded as one of the most influential people in the hip hop industry. Born and raised in NYC, Shawn Corey Carter is the founder of Roc-A-Fella Records and co-created the clothing line Rocawear with Damon Dash in 1999.

His clothing line earns $50 million in revenue each year and even reached $700 million annual revenue during its peak. In 2007, he decided to sell the rights of Rocawear to Iconix Brand Group for $204 million. However, he still maintains a small stake in it and is still involved in the brand’s licensing, development, and marketing. It’s no surprise that Jay-Z has a total net worth of $1 billion and will never have any trouble with applying for any personal loans.
