Despite his hospitalization, he still made quite some money off the Saint Pablo Tour.
Kanye West is constantly in the public eye. From his famed albums to celebrity wife Kim K, the world can never get enough of Kanye.
With all the endeavors that Kanye and his family have going on, it’s no wonder that he is so successful. Kanye currently has a net worth of around $145 Million, according to InStyle. When you combine his net worth with Kim’s net worth of $45.5 Million, according to Forbes, that’s a lot of dough.
Even North has some assets under her belt as “Kanye dropped $74,000 on North for Christmas last year, buying her a $62,000 diamond-encrusted tiara and a $12,000 toy black SUV,” writes Huffington Post.
So what is Kanye doing to keep all this money flowing in?
Kim and Kanye own a number of different houses, all worth a ton of money. In 2014, the couple bought a $20 million dollar home, which was under renovation until 2016. “The Hidden Hills gem sits on 3.5 acres of land and (deep breath) it features two swimming pools, two spas, fountains, a rose garden and (here’s the kicker) its very own vineyard,” according to E News.
Additionally, the couple owns another home in Bel Air. They bought the estate for $11 million dollars in 2013 and spent $2 million on renovations, according to the Daily Mail.
Kanye has had a lot of drama around his tours. In November 2016, Kanye had a string of weird episodes at his tour and was later hospitalized for psychiatric evaluation, reports New York Daily News.
Despite this, his tours brought him a large sum of money, before he canceled due to his hospitalization. By the end of October, his most recent tour, The Saint Pablo Tour, had already grossed $35 million, with 62 more concerts booked through the end of 2016.
His tour before that, The Yeezus Tour, earned him an estimated $25.2 million in 2013. It was the second highest grossing tour for the year, behind Paul McCartney’s Out There! tour Billboard also reports.
In 2014, Adidas signed Kanye West to have his extremely popular Yeezy shoes sold in their stores. This was a huge success for both Adidas and Kanye, since the shoes are wildly popular and can sell for over $1,000 dollars sometimes. When the deal was first cultivated in 2014, Kanye made $10 million according to Inc.
However, it must be noted that Kanye did state that he was in debt in the beginning of 2016.
The artist’s famous tweet about his $53 million dollar debt was posted in February of 2016. However, this is not true debt. “It’s the amount he has taken out of his own pocket to fund certain aspects of his fashion and music companies,” according to Business Insider.
Whether you’re a Kanye fan or not, you have to give the man props for becoming an extremely successful rapper. He is now married to one of the wealthiest women around. Additionally, he created a name for himself after dropping out of college to pursue music.
