Have you ever wondered about rapper net worth? Even rap aficionados might be astonished to learn that rappers exaggerate about how much money they have.
This can be clearly seen in this infographic that displays comparative analysis of the actual net worth versus the alleged net worth of various popular rap artists. Pitbull is the worst offender, according to the lyrical evaluation performed by Businessweek, when he claimed, "Now make millions, I mean billions, I'm a genius, I mean brilliant." Just for clarification, Pitbull is not in fact a billionaire. The "humble-brag" line is also extremely informative. Ludacris, alternatively referred to as 'Luda,' is on the humble side of this line. This is fitting when he raps, "Cause you worth a couple hundred grand and I'm worth millions." Indeed, Luda.
