It’s hard to dispute that 2016 was an interesting year.

We lost Prince, we had a woman run for president, and clowns terrorized people around the world.

It was also an interesting year for one of our favorite rappers, Kanye West.

He claimed he was going to run for president in 2020, went on rants about Donald Trump at his concerts and was even hospitalized for psychiatric evaluation.

However, Kanye still made a killing financially this year. For 2016 Kanye had a net worth of $66.7 million according to Earn the Necklace. This is up from his 2014 net worth of approximately $30 million.

So what did Kanye do in the 2016 year to make bank? Let’s take a look.

Kanye’s 2016 album “The Life of Pablo” was a huge success. “West’s latest album ‘The Life of Pablo’ was streamed 250 million times globally in its first 10 days of release on music streaming service Tidal, the company announced on Tuesday,” reported CNN.

His album was also the first streaming-only album to make it to Platinum status. This album and the subsequent tour brought Kanye a lot of money.

Adidas

2016 was the year of the Yeezy. Adidas re-signed Kanye to continue their deal for Yeezy’s to be sold at Adidas stores. The deal was first crafted in 2013, and was worth an estimated $10 million.

With the rapper’s shoes selling for prices ranging from $300-$1,000 dollars, we can only image how much the deal was renegotiated for now.

Kim made a killing in 2016, too.

It’s no secret that Kanye is married to the famous Kim Kardashian. And although Kanye killed it in 2016, so did Kim. She earned an estimated $51 million in 2016 according to Forbes. Her Kimoji app that came out in 2016 was wildly successful. In fact, it was the highest contributor to her net worth.

Additionally, her Instagram endorsements and spot on “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” helped her rake in a lot of dough. If you want more info on her net worth, check out this article.

2016 was also the year of crazy Kanye tweets. The rapper tweeted that he was in $53 million dollars of debt, and asked Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg to help him out. However, it is reported that this is from investments the rapper made into himself and not actual debt.

Even with Kanye tweeting this, we can’t deny that he made a good amount of money in 2016. His “Life of Pablo” album and tour were both wildly successful and his Adidas deal was extremely successful, with many of the sneakers selling out.
