Jay-Z, born Shawn Carter, has a net worth of $2.5 billion, making him the richest musician on Forbes’ 2024 list of celebrity billionaires. His wealth surpasses that of other musicians like Rihanna ($1.4 billion) and Taylor Swift ($1.1 billion). While known for hits like “99 Problems” and “Empire State of Mind,” Jay-Z’s fortune primarily stems from his business ventures. Over the past four years, he earned over $1 billion from selling stakes in his alcohol brands, Armand de Brignac and D’Usse. He founded Roc Nation in 2008, purchased Tidal in 2015, and was a part-owner of the Brooklyn Nets from 2003 to 2013, playing a key role in their relocation. Additionally, Jay-Z has ventured into fashion with Rocawear and sports management with Roc Nation Sports. His wife, Beyonce, adds another $760 million to their combined wealth, making them a formidable power couple.
