Nas Net Worth $17 Million
So how wealthy is Nas? Sources estimate Nas’ net worth to be $17 million. The primary source of his wealth is his successful rap career. Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1973, Nas dropped out of high school before the ninth grade due to his parents’ divorce. Before achieving worldwide success, Nas relentlessly worked on recording his songs in a studio, although none were released. He soon released his debut album “Illmatic” in 1994, which introduced him to a wider audience and became an iconic masterpiece in the hip-hop industry, propelling Nas to greater exposure. In between album releases, Nas collaborated with other artists and featured on tracks with AZ, Mobb Deep, R. Kelly, and Lauryn Hill. He also co-created a hip-hop supergroup called “The Firm” with AZ, Foxy Brown, and Nature, signed to Dr. Dre’s label “Aftermath Records”. The group released their debut album “The Album” in 1997, which, unfortunately, failed to generate the desired public interest, leading to the disbandment of “The Firm”. Nas then focused on his next album “I Am… Autobiography” and other projects. Nas’ music career includes the release of thirteen albums so far, as well as multiple Grammy, MTV Video Music, and BET Hip Hop Awards nominations and wins. In addition to his music and acting career, Nas has successfully ventured into business, launching his own record label and opening a sneaker store called “12AM RUN” in 2013. Despite facing financial challenges related to unpaid taxes, Nas’ current net worth stands at $17 million.
