Jay-Z is the first hip hop musician in history who has become a billionaire

According to the latest Forbes magazine statistics, Jay-Z is the first hip hop artist in the history of this genre that has become a billionaire.

The text in Forbes opens with a reminder at the meeting of musicians and billionaire Warren Buffett in 2010, and then the prospective musician was delighted by the 88-year-old Buffet.

"For a young adult who is growing up, Jay-Z is the guy to be taught. I anticipate a great career and great success," said the business magnate.

For less than a decade, Forbes has once again put into the center of his research the business empire of Shawna Carter, known as Jay-Z, which encompassed his musical creativity, streaming services, real estate and shares in other companies.

The latest statistics have found that his wealth is currently worth over a billion dollars, so his popular spouse Beyonce has fallen into another set of business records, according to Variety.

This statistic is not in favor of Dr. Drea, who was named the first billionaire in the hip hop world in 2014 when he had a deal with Apple Beats Electronics. However, at that time, Forbes estimated its value to $ 800 million.
