21 Savage was born in London and moved to Atlanta at the age of 7 with his mother. Many don't know he's actually cousins with fellow prominent rapper Young Nudy.

21 Savage first burst onto the scene with mixtapes such as The Slaughter Tape (2015), Free Guwop (2015) and underground dominance. In 2016, he dropped off his classic collaborative EP with Metro Boomin, Savage Mode. A year later, he followed up with his debut album, Issa Album. The 2017 project peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and featured the hit song, "Bank Account."

On Halloween 2017, Savage, Metro and Migos' member Offset blessed fans with the collaborative tape, Without Warning. 21 followed that strong display up with his sophomore album i am > i was in 2018. 21's second album housed contributions from Travis Scott, Childish Gambino, Post Malone, City Girls and others. It also was awarded a Grammy for the J. Cole-assisted single, "A Lot."

In 2020, 21 and Metro Boomin unveiled the second edition of their Savage Mode series with Savage Mode II. Featuring appearances from Morgan Freeman, Drake, Young Thug and Young Nudy, Savage Mode II became 21 Savage's second album to land at No. 1 on the Billboard album charts.

This takes us to his most recent album, Her Loss, which just dropped on November 4th. The collab album with Drake became 21's third No. 1 album. The chart-topping project moved 404,000 album equivalent units in its opening week.

21 Savage's rise to fame is largely due to his ear for melody and his knack for making catchy hooks. But it's also due to his work ethic; since breaking onto the scene in 2016, 21 Savage has done "a lot" (catch the pun?). He's also been featured on songs with some of the biggest names in rap, including Drake, Cardi B, and Post Malone. In case you can't tell, 21 Savage has been grinding non-stop since he first hit the mainstream.

As of November 11, 2022, 21 Savage's list of accolades looks something like this: he made the Forbes Music 30 for 30 list in 2019, he went platinum by the RIAA for i am > i was and Issa Album (not to mention his 17 platinum single certifications), he hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with two separate songs, along with 63 entries and ten top 10 entries. Additionally, he's had two number one albums on the Billboard 200 chart, with five overall, and four top 10 entries.

Of course, all that hard work has paid off handsomely. According to Celebrity Net Worth, 21 Savage is currently worth an estimated $12 million. That might not seem like a lot compared to some of the other rappers out there (Drake, for example, is worth an estimated $150 million), but it's still a pretty penny. Thanks to his ability, ear for music, business acumen, and work ethic, 21 Savage has managed to amass a fortune of $12 million.

You might be wondering how exactly 21 came to possess this notable amount of money. Well, here's a breakdown of how his wealth came to be. Firstly, 21 Savage owns 100% all of his masters under his contract with Sony's Epic Records. This it not a typical happenstance in hip-hop, or music in general, for that matter. This means he's collecting money from every utilization of his song, and all of it. Additionally, he added in an interview that he's the main breadwinner of the partnership in his 70/30 deal with Epic Records.

Now, onto the most prominent money-maker in music: booking. For ages, booking has been artists' go-to for bringing in revenue, and this is one of 21 Savage's top-performing areas (no pun intended). He's been touring like a madman ever since 2016. He's done tours with other artists like Lil Uzi Vert, J. Cole, Young Thug, Metro Boomin, Gucci Mane, and even brands like Worldstar and Monster Energy.

That appropriately segues to our next area of discussion: brand partnerships. 21 has worked with brands like PlayStation, SNIPES, RtA, and many other noteworthy names with similar reputations. This is yet another example of how the rapper has turned his music into a much bigger business for himself. Additionally, he's invested his money wisely into Sound.xyz, a web3 platform dedicated to helping artists with funding.

21 Savage and Drake were just hit with a lawsuit from the publisher of Vogue Magazine, Condé Nast, for using the Vogue brand as a part of their faux press run to promote Her Loss. Hopefully, this won't alter 21's financial standing for the worse. They had to be considering that this would happen, right?
