**notoldschool** · 05-04-2008, 02:33 PM

Hes had quite a few hit records over the past decade, not to mention being a CEO of a major label. Not surprising at all.

I saw some pics of his house in one my gf's women's magazines... He lives in a $10M apartment that takes up the whole top floor of this historic building in NY... Big pimpin. Spent like $250K on flowers for his wedding or some shit.

**NinjaSteve** · 05-04-2008, 07:24 PM

He chose the wrong kind of blue. But damn, $580 mil is a long way past selling crack.

**Phoenix** · 05-04-2008, 07:35 PM

**Doctor Dre** · 05-04-2008, 07:51 PM

Big record label, numerous nightclubs, vodka brand, CD sales, biggest clothing compagny in the world... I figured he would be worth a lot more.

**bronco67** · 05-04-2008, 07:54 PM

All that money for going "yeah...yeah...yo.. yo yo yall."

One night club, does he own a brand of vodka? and biggest clothing lin in the WORLD? not sure about that..

**heymatty** · 05-04-2008, 08:06 PM

Is that more or less than P Diddy is worth?

Many nightclubs, he opened 40/40s in New York, Atlantic City, Las Vegas and Macau

He owns Armadale vodka wich is one of the brand's top premium vodkas

As far as Rocawear goes, it was the biggesta year or two ago, not sure about now, trends go fast. He sold his shares for over 200 millions.

He has a movie production compagny... that produced a couple ghetto gangsta movies...

He owns shares in the NJ Mets

I forgot to say... he also has his own cellphone brand with motorolla and a lot other stuff.

I figured he'd be worth more then 500 mills.

It's the money and fame she loves. Trust me, take away that and put him a crowd of broke niggas living in the ghetto and she would call the police if he even approached her.

**Rique** · 05-04-2008, 09:19 PM

Don't hate the player. Hate the Game.

I'm sure you must know him well. The guy clearly has no ambition and personality.

He started his own label BEFORE he started rapping, discovering artists such as Foxy Brown, Kayne West, Dj Clue, Memphis Bleek, The diplomants etc.

Fame, money and status definitly help, but he's certainly not a dummy...

**Drake** · 05-04-2008, 09:32 PM

Hip-hop is big business.

Net worth:

Jay-Z: $580 million
P. Diddy: $358 million
Russel Simmons: $340 million
50 Cent: $200 million

I can't stand him, but he deserves respect for the biz he has made for himself and what he has accomplished.

Apparently hes just rumored to have had the share, its not officially known.

**tranza** · 05-05-2008, 07:17 AM

I bet that if you ad it with Beyonce money, they reach $1bi!

Friend sent me a link a couple years ago about it what it used to retail.

Sales are down and it still say that on the website :
Today, Rocawear is a dominant lifestyle apparel brand for a wide range of customers, with annual retail sales over $700 million.

Wow, I guess I can't see the scope of things living in the UK, nobody wears Rocawear here but I wouldn't of thought it would be that big

**Jens Van Assterdam** · 05-05-2008, 07:34 AM

i will sue jay-z soon.. just need to find some stupid reason and then ill cash in

**kowalsky** · 05-05-2008, 08:22 AM

It´s amazing the amount of money generated by such crappy style like Hip Hop is...

Most definitely not the biggest clothing company in the world.

VF Corporation, which owns such brands as Wrangler, Lee, etc., has annual sales exceeding 5 billion USD.

**Andy Servers4Less** · 05-05-2008, 08:28 AM

I heard 50 Cent was at about $200 million.

Jay-Z is worth $580M?!
