A famous rapper and record producer, Lil Wayne owns $150 million net worth. His wealth comes from his albums selling, music shows and endorsements. The stellar rapper has already recorded 30 studio albums and 200 popular singles, which brought him about $34 million (estimated by Moneynation).
Every year Lil’ Weezy plays about 50 shows worldwide. Each his show brings him $600, 000 (according to Forbes). His earnings seem incredible for an ordinary person, but even that huge amount isn’t enough for Lil Wayne. So he tries to make more, participating in various endorsement deals like Pepsi's Mountain Dew and Bogey Blunts cigars. Lil has his own line of clothes, named Trukfit, too. He gets about $8 million from endorsement contracts (according to Moneynation).
Lil Wayne’s stature is quite short, but his talent is huge and it helped him to become a star rapper. Weezy was born in New Orleans by a teen mother and wrote his first song at the age of 8. A year later he signed his first deal with Cash Money Records. He got initial recognition as the member of Hot Boys and then decided to start solo career. His big break was in 1999, when he released his debut album “The Block is Hot”, which made Lil a real star.
Weezy’s most popular songs are “Lollipop”, “She Will”, “John”, “Lovely’ and many others.
Lil Wayne, who was jailed in 2010 for weapon possessing, remains one of the most famous rappers in USA and worldwide.
