    Em doesn't invest in as much business as the others do. His main focus is just music. The others have invested in multiple ventures as well as run labels that actually remembers artists are signed to it and that they need to promote that fact

    you're the only one arguing about it :s eminem hasn't been relevant for years, money doesn't last for ever. he's not poor but the other 5 made more than he did 15 years ago. there is absolutely no reason to think he'd be worth more than drake, diddy, jay, dre, or birdman, who are all actively working and making money through multiple avenues

    eminem is sitting at home and collecting one check a year from shows. it's just silly to even think he'd be anywhere near this list.

    Yeah guys you gotta think he's been signed to interscope since '98 and the reason all of these other rappers are wealthy is because of business ventures. Sure Em sold the most of any rapper but he not making Beats or investing in Vitamin water etc dude invested in RapGenius, he stay taking L's

    200m mainly on music is nothing to sneeze at but he's nowhere near the richest and shouldn't be - he's a social recluse he'd hate having to promote s--- anyway hence not bein into as much business s--- as the others and having to have business meetings. He'd probably make a fart joke and f--- a deal up. Em's not a hustler in that regard like the others are

    They're probably overvaluing his properties.


    Having a $50m mansion in Detroit is basically worth $1m.

    these sites are just guessing based on what little information they can find. if forbes (who have been a credible source in money talk and specifically celebrity net worths for decades isn't listing him then i'm believing them over celebritynetworth.com which is just guessing based on interviews and other google results

    was gonna say i couldn't see a number on forbes - which is the only one i'd take serious - i literally only did a ten second search while on my ciggie break at work i don't care that much - i personally would expect it to be a bit lower too unless he's got some massive business investments the public isn't aware of
