He’s got money to drop. Drake’s net worth is off the charts as he is embroiled in a diss battle with Kendrick Lamar. The two have made several songs about their hatred of each other.
The beef started when J. ColeandDrakeranked themselves, with Lamar, as the “big three” in hip-hop in the song “First Person Shooter.” J. Cole further dissed Kendrick in “7 Minute Drill” on his surprise new album, “Might Delete Later. He later apologized a couple of days later. After the release of “Like That” with Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar, the latter artiststood his groundand said that it’s just him up there in the ranks. Drake, however, took it further and the Compton-born and Toronto-born rapper have released rapid-fire diss tracks—one after the other from “Pushups” to “Taylor Made Freestyle” to “Not Like Us.”
In one diss track, called “6:16 in LA” Kendrick raps, “It was fun until you started to put money in the streets / Then lost money, ’cause they came back with no receipts / I’m sorry that I live a boring life, I love peace / But war-ready if the world is ready to see you bleed.”
So how much money does Drizzy actually have? Let’s take a look at Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar’s net worth.
Drake's Net Worth
Drake’s net worth is estimated to be $250 million according to Celebrity Net Worth. The Toronto-native rapper mostly gets his earnings through his music but has also ventured into other businesses.
In an interview with XXL, money means to him as “less than the dollar value. It’s just more about the idea of growth and a business mindset: $25 million at the time seemed crazy to me, but when you start becoming a headlining touring act and brands want to get involved with you and you can go do private events and whatnot, you’re capable of making it.”
Drake's Music Earnings
Drake’s music earnings are what got him to the top. According to Celebrity Net Worth, he has an annual salary of $70 million as founder of his label OVO Sound. His latest album For All The Dogs sold 402,000 equivalent album units in its first week including 391,000 streaming equivalent album units (514.01 million on-demand streams of the songs), 10,000 in album sales, and just a little over 1,000 in track equivalent album units.
Drake is currently tied with The Beatles for a record of 19 No. 1s on the Billboard 200.
Drake's other ventures
Drake has a ton of endorsem*nts ranging from Sprite,Nike, and Apple Music. Does anyone remember that weird Drake robot Sprite advertisem*nt? But he lucked out in his Apple Music endorsem*nt when he signed an exclusive deal that amounted to $19 million.
Of course, he dabbled in acting (Degrassi: The Next Generation) and producing (Euphoria). He’s also the owner of DreamCrew Entertainment, 100 Thieves, MoonPay, and Ovo Clothing.
Drake has a ton of properties

Amid the Kendrick and Drake diss battle, a shooting took place outside Drake’s house around 2 a.m. and Toronto Police Service officers found a man suffering from an apparent gunshot wound when they arrived at the scene, according to Inspector Paul Krawczyk of the Integrated Gun and Gang Task Force at the Toronto Police Service.

I’ve got this thing where I’m scared I’ma lose all my money,” he told Complex. “I be talking to a few of my partners that’s doing they thing. A few of them don’t feel the same way but it’s like a real deal for me. I treat myself every now and then, but for the most part I be wanting to be smart about it. If my music were to stop today, how would I make this stretch for the rest of my life? My kid’s lifetime? Hopefully my grandkids. If I stopped today, how would I do that?”
He continued, “Of course, I treat myself but that’s always in the back of my head. This could be your last moment and your last shot to keep that revenue coming. I got a lot of people to support, a lot of people to inspire.”
