How did Jay Z make $100m so quickly in 2001?

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

In all seriousness...looking back how the entire fukk did he do that so quickly? Rocawear?

 

[DrX]

they were indie....i think def jam were just a partner

 

[Cladyclad]

Rocawear was huge in 01'

So that value bump his worth up in a big way

But he said he raped Def Jam until he was a $100 million man.

But he said he raped Def Jam until he was a $100 million man.

Technically he said "until" he never said he had 100milly

 

[Redwing80]

He didn't

"You are now looking at the 40 million boy"

"I'm raping Def Jam till I'm the 100 million man"

[Spurs91]

Because Jay has always told the truth in his songs anyway

 

[YourMumsRoom]

Its no secret, the bulk....touring. The HKL tour went on for mad long, and was one the most successful in hip hop history. Jay just used the Rolling Stone/ U2 model.

You gotta remember he came into the game a hunnid grand strong, 9 to be exact, from grindin g packs. Also he didnt pay nikkaz when he used samples and turned those lines into hits so he was bankin off that. As others said he was touring if you think that he was in dozens of cities and that in each of those places on gawds green earth he tripled his worth, along with only paying his acts like $600 he kept most of the profit. Also at this time Roc-a-wear wasnt Cock-a-wear so it was movin off the shelves. nikkaz was coppin those S.Carters. When he had company, even famous people over, he didnt spend a lot on them he had Oprah drinkin quarter water.

Its easy to see how Jay Peso could make a hunnid milly
