Jay-Z's real-time net worth, according to 'Forbes'

Ever wonder how much Jay-Z is worth? According to Forbes, the rapper-turned-entrepreneur has a real-time net worth of $2.5 billion.

The publication reports Hov, who was named hip-hop's first billionaire in 2019, makes millions from D'Usse and his Armand de Brignac champagne, with assets including Roc Nation and a fine art collection. His Marcy Venture Partners project also earned him $85 million in 2019.

Jay's current net worth makes him #1,209 on Forbes' list of the World's Real Time Billionaires. The $2.5 billion estimation, if correct, marks a significant increase over his $1.4 billion net worth last year. This may be the result of his decision to sell his 50% stake in D'Usse to Bacardi for a reported $750 million.
