Cardi B – $30 Million

Social media websites such as Instagram and Vine allowed Cardi B to make a name for herself as an Internet celebrity. Once an exotic dancer, the rapper went from anonymity to stardom in less than five years and is now considered one of the best and most charismatic women in hip-hop.

While her rags-to-riches story is impressive, it’s her easygoing attitude, fierce lyrics, and extremely contagious songs that have turned her into such an important music figure. She’s released many hit singles, with the 2020 “WAP” (featuring Megan Thee Stallion)  being one of the most catchy and influential.
