Kanye West is Officially Hip Hop's Newest Billionaire

Hip Hop officially has 2 Billionaires: JAY-Z and now Kanye West! Officially confirmed by Forbes, most of his wealth is attributed to Kanye's wildly popular Yeezy sneaker brand, which easily sells for $300+ retail. No matter how you might feel about his opinions, political stance or music these days, you can’t deny Kanye’s creativity and passion for following his dreams. Going from Louis Vuitton to Nike and now Adidas with the shoe game, Kanye has been at it for a lifetime. Who would've thought the kid being scolded by his grade school teachers for drawing out sneaker designs while in class would build the next iconic sneaker brand? But, if you know never to count out the underdog, you already knew that this would happen. Despite all the ups and downs and everything he’s been through, Kanye now has his empire set. Because "what's better than one Billionaire? Two"!
