Young Thug is a 28 year old rapper out of Atlanta who, according to “Celebrity Net
Worth”, is estimated to be worth a lofty $8,000,000.
Young Thug made his fortune from a multitude of avenues including album sales, concerts,
royalties, and even movie appearances.
Since 2011, Young Thug has dropped 18 mixtapes and 2 studio albums, showing that despite
the trail of legal issues and disputed label deals, he has the longevity needed to stick
around successfully in the industry.
Coming out of the same neighborhood as other rappers such as 2 Chainz, Ludacris, and Waka
Flocka Flame, it only makes sense that Young Thug would flex his success through fashion,
cars, and jewelry.
One picture posted to Instagram shows Young Thug with his collection of sport and luxury
cars that include a drop top Maybach, a Porsche, and a Bentley Continental GT.
His history of properties include a mansion located in Buckhead, Atlanta consisting of
11,000 square feet, 7 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, an indoor pool, and a whole lot more, coming
in at around $2,400,000.
His jewelry collection is also substantial, with items that include a $62,000 Rolex.
Curious about what else Young Thug spends his money on?
Well then we’ve got you covered.
Here is an exclusive look inside the $8,000,000 lifestyle of Young Thug.
Young Thug also known as Jefferey Lamar Williams, was born in Atlanta, Georgia in a neighborhood
called Sylvan Hills, and grew up in the Jonesboro south projects.
At the age of 20, the young rapper started creating and releasing his first 3 mixtapes
as part of a series titled “I Came From Nothing”.
Young Thug’s rise to fame came after he caught the ear of an already famous Atlanta
rapper, Gucci Mane.
In 2013, Young Thug was signed to “1017 Brick Squad Records”, where he released
his 4th mixtape “1017 Thug”.
“1017 Thug” earned Young Thug the respect he needed to move his career to the next level,
with Rolling Stone Magazine placing the mixtape at #5 on the “10 best mixtapes of 2013”
list.
Using the momentum he gained from his 4th mixtape, the Atlanta rapper continued his
success with the help of a management deal from Louisiana rapper Birdman’s, “Richgang”.
In early 2014, Young Thug began recording songs with Kanye West, who was quoted for
praising Young Thug’s drive and ability to create new music so quickly.
In June of 2014, Young Thug signed with the “300 Entertainment” record label and continued
by releasing several singles including “Danny Glover” and “Old English”.
All was going according to plan before an incident in 2015, where hundreds of tracks
were leaked because of a series of data breaches.
The rapper's debut album was set to be released that same year, but because of the tracks
that were leaked, he decided to postpone putting out the album and release another mixtape
instead.
In August of 2017, Young Thug and Camille Cabello collaborated to create the single
“Havana”, leading to the claim of the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 charts..
If the rapper had not made a name for himself by this point, it was no longer a topic of
debate.
His success has only increased in the past couple of years, with features on hit songs
like “The London” with J Cole and Travis Barker as well as dropping a very successful
album titled “So Much Fun” back in 2019, which gave Young Thug his first ever #1 album
on the Billboard 200 chart.
Young Thugs massive success in recent years has led to some pretty epic numbers for streaming
and bookings alone.
On Spotify, Young Thug currently holds the spot for the 125th most streamed artist in
the world, which leads to some pretty big numbers for the bank account.
With over 19,000,000 monthly listeners, the Atlanta rapper is making over $76,000 per
month, just for streaming royalties from Spotify.
To make it clear, that brings his total to just under $1 million per year, $19,000 per
week, and $2,700 per day.
But that is not all he's making royalties from.
If we include Apple Music in these numbers, it brings the totals to $1.5 million per year,
$126,000 per month, $32,000 per week, and $4500 per day.
Now let's keep with the trend and throw in the massive amount of money the rapper makes
from his Youtube channel.
Young Thug is bringing in an impressive 45 million views per month on YouTube, and these
totals are no joke.
In a single year from Youtube streams alone, Young Thug is earning around $1,620,000.
That’s $135,000 per month, $33,750 per week, and $4,821 per day.
Lets not forget what the 28 year old rapper is bringing in for playing live shows.
On average, Young Thug is playing about 2 shows per month, and for every show he books,
he is earning around $65,000, even though he claimed in an interview recently it's $1,500,000
to book him… which is not true.
So, that brings his total earnings from live shows to approximately $1.5 million per year,
$130,000 per month, $32,000 per week, and $4,600 per day.
After crunching the numbers, we have some incredible total income figures.
On average, including live shows and streaming royalties, Young Thug is cashing in on about
$4,692,000 per year, $391,000 per month, $97,750 a week, and an incredible $13,964 per day.
Now that we have an idea of the money Young Thug brings in, let’s find out what he's
spending it on.
In 2016, Young Thug made his first property purchase, buying an 11,000 square foot home
in Buckhead, Atalanta for around $2.4 million.
The home was fully equipt with 7 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, an indoor pool and hot tub,
a 4 car garage, and it even has a hidden room inside for the more exclusive highlights.
However, in 2017, Heritage Select Homes sued Young Thug for not making a substantial $2,200,000
payment on the home.
Young Thug was by no means too broke to make the payment, but instead insisted that the
real estate company had not disclosed some vital information about failing components
of the house including foundation damage, a failing roof, leaks, and even mold in the
basement.
Because of the entire debacle, Young Thug decided to put his 11,000 square foot Atlanta
party mansion on the market for a price of $1,800,000, taking a big hit financially.
The lawsuit is still an ongoing case, and there seems to be no end in sight for the
rapper or the real estate company.
For now, it is unknown where Young Thug is residing but I can only assume that he set
up shop in Los Angeles, California or got a new luxurious estate in Atlanta, Georgia.
Young Thug is certainly not the first rapper to spend a huge amount of his earnings on
cars, and he will definitely not be the last.
That does not mean, however, that his fleet of luxury vehicles and sports cars is lacking
his unique style in any way.
Among his $3,000,000 car collection, the rapper has obtained some of the most well sought
out cars that even the biggest up and coming names in the game havent gotten their hands
on.
The list includes a drop-top Maybach, a Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and a Bentley Continental
GT.
Since the cost window for the Maybach is so wide, and because the exact details of the
car are unknown, it's not fair to put a dollar amount to the car.
Let's just agree that the car is likely one of the prized possessions in the collection.
The Chevy Corvette Stingray however was a bit easier to research, coming in at a modest
$70,000.
One of Young Thug’s most pricey vehicles is no doubt the Bentley Continental GT, with
a market value of nearly $300,000.
On top of his personal collection, Young Thug decided to spread the love to his family.
One video surfaced on the internet and went viral, showing the rapper gifting his father
a brand new car.
Inside of the car was an envelope which allegedly contained twice the amount of the car's value...in
cash.
Young Thug is a family man, which makes sense that he continued his streak of generosity
and gifted all 10 of his siblings with brand new cars as well.
The man can be called a lot of things, but greedy may not be one of them.
Young Thug’s eccentric style and sense of fashion holds a hefty price tag when it comes
to the jewelry he owns.
We all know that the rapper's name brand, tailored threads are one of his most unique
ways to represent himself, but it wouldn’t come full circle without the gold, platinum,
silver, diamonds, and pearls he hangs around them.
As a gift to himself to celebrate his 28th birthday and releasing his new album “So
Much Fun”, Young Thug dropped a jaw dropping $250,000 on a rose gold, diamond encrusted
“snake chain”.
The entire piece weighs in at just over 2 pounds, and has got to be one of the most
enjoyable ways to hang that much weight around your neck.
Gold chains and diamond pieces aside, the 28 year old rapper is making a loud statement
on wealth and style with another material, pearls.
A recent Instagram story posted by Young Thug showed off layers of pearl necklaces, paired
with diamond earrings and a tailor made turtleneck, proving once again that he's setting the standard
for style in the rap game.
His jewelry collection though, like the rest of his endeavors, has brought along with it
a trail of setbacks and lawsuits.
In 2018, “Icebox Diamonds and Watches” hit the Atlanta rapper with an outstanding
bill for just over $115,000.
According to the lawsuit, Young Thug was given over $200,000 worth of jewelry that he had
currently only paid $95,000 for.
The collection he received included a $30,000 wallet chain, a $30,000 Rolex, a $20,000 Cartier
bracelet, and a $6,500 gold clasp.
“Icebox Diamonds and Watches” is now seeking a total of $365,000 from the rapper, which
includes the outstanding balance and an additional $250,000 for punitive damages.
Young Thug has been quoted saying that the jewelry store is exploiting him, and demands
that the lawsuit be dropped.
The case is still ongoing.
