The famous American rapper, Kanye West, has announced his return to the billionaires club.
In fact, according to West and Eton Venture Services, the rapper’s net worth now stands at US$2.77 billion.
Eton Venture Services revealed that West’s net worth assessment is based on his music portfolio and sole ownership of the YEEZY brand.
Ye’s return to the billionaire circle comes years after Forbes said he lost his billionaire status due to the end of his partnership with Adidas.
The Yeezy founder took to Instagram on the evening of Thursday, January 23, 2025, to announce that he was worth billions.
In October 2025, Forbes announced that Kanye West had lost his billionaire status after Adidas dropped him following a series of anti-Semitic comments and anti-Black remarks.
-Forbes estimated Kanye West’s net worth at $400 million after losing his $1.5 billion Adidas deal, estimating his wealth based on real estate, cash, music catalogs and a stake in Kim Kardashian’s tight-fitting clothing brand.
Kanye, however, disputed this claim, saying he was worth $3 billion and valuing his partnership with Adidas at $4.3 billion.
Last week, Kanye West proclaimed himself “GOAT” after making more than $2 million in 24 hours from his Yeezy website.
This increase followed the release of the Yeezy SLPR at $20. Sharing his success on Instagram, Kanye West boasted: “$2,339,096 in 24 hours”.
