I’m The Richest Black Man Of All Time – Kanye West

Billionaire American rapper and entrepreneur, Kanye West, has claimed he is richest black man of all time.

According to Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Nigeria’s Aliko Dangote whose net worth was estimated at $18.6 billion as of October 12, 2022, is the world’s richest black person.

But in an interview with Daily Mail, West accused the media of disrespecting him by being calling him a rapper.

He said, “I love rappers. Rappers are artists. But when the media calls me a rapper specifically to not bring up the fact that I’m worth $11 billion, that I’m the richest black man of all time, that I’m a billionaire and I’m a tycoon, that I’m a visionary.

“And if I say that, if I say those three things, then they’ll say I’m a narcissist, right? But they push you down so much that you gotta fight just to say who you are.”

In 2021, Bloomberg reported that West was officially worth a whopping $6.6 billion, making him the richest Black man in America’s history at that time.
