Kanye West proudly showcases his wealth as he declares his comeback to billionaire status despite facing backlash

Kanye West has revealed that he has regained his billionaire status by showing off his current net worth on Instagram.

The rapper’s staggering net worth is all thanks to the success of his music and sole ownership of the Yeezy brand.

About two years ago, Kanye West faced a massive setback when he lost an astonishing “$2 billion in one day.” Reports surfaced indicating that he was on the brink of bankruptcy after Adidas cut ties with him.

Now, West is suggesting that he has reclaimed billionaire status. Recently, he posted a glimpse of his impressive net worth for his 20.5 million Instagram followers to see.

West posted a message from Eton Venture Services that read, “In 2025, Ye’s net worth stands at $2.77 billion as confirmed by Eton Venture Services.”

“The valuation is based on his music portfolio and his sole ownership of the Yeezy mark,” the note added.

Showing off his accomplishment, the “Vultures” artist captioned the photo with “LAA LA LA LA,” a lyric from his track “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” where he confidently raps about getting his finances in order.

Some of his fans were astonished to the feet as one wrote in the comments, “Becoming a billionaire twice is the Lord’s work,” while another wrote that West is the “first person to become a billionaire twice.”

In 2022, West suffered a devastating financial setback, losing “$2 billion in one day” due to a combination of factors, including the end of his partnership with Adidas after the backlash he faced on social media for his antisemitic comments.

At the time, the father-of-four claimed he was on the verge of bankruptcy, with his finances in disarray as a number of brands severed ties with him over his antisemitic outbursts.

However, it appears that the rapper began making a remarkable recovery from last year, telling TMZ that he had to pour “everything I had” into a $7 million Superbowl advert for his fashion brand and his album, “Vultures.”

“I’m just being honest with y’all. I was two months from going bankrupt, and I put everything I had into it [the album and the Super Bowl advert],” he told the news outlet.

His Superbowl ad seemingly paid off in helping him clear his inventory as he shared a screenshot of one of his assistant’s text informing him that the total sales amounted to $19.3 million.

West disclosed at the time that as his wealth began to plummet, he and his wife, Bianca Censori, relocated to Italy, where they began recovery efforts.

“We moved to Italy. We moved to the factories, and we survived. We survived through the cancellation. We’re back number one,” he said.

The “Carnival” rapper is already setting his sights on the next project – his new album, “Bully.” West took to Instagram to share clips of him “training” his daughter, North, in the studio after revealing she made him “love music again.”

In one black and white clip, North was shown around a huge warehouse before sitting dt a table with a microphone and speakers.

In a second clip, she can be seen with headphones on and a microphone to her mouth as she plays around with a sampling keyboard.

He captioned the videos “Training” and “TRAINING 2.0” before going on to show just how proud of her he is in another post where he shared a black-and-white photo of her sitting in the studio.

“This little girl made me love music again,” he wrote in the caption. “She asked me to make beats for her I got back on the ASR Chopped up beats for her album and chopped every beats with my bare hand for BULLY.”

In addition to North, West is the father of three other children, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, whom he split from in 2022.

Kardashian implied the rapper was an absent father to their kids in a November conversation with her best friend Zoe Winkler, where she explained that she felt like a single parent.

According to the Daily Mail, the “Jesus is King” rapper has been globetrotting the world with his wife Bianca Censori and has stayed away from the country because he reportedly fears being drawn into the sex crime controversy surrounding his former friend Sean “Diddy” Combs.

However, he was recently seen reuniting with his children, except North, at a 7-Eleven convenience store in Tokyo.

It remains unclear if North’s timeout with West also occurred in Tokyo, as it wasn’t known if she initially made the trip with her brothers.

Despite West’s reported wealth, the rapper has incurred a massive property tax debt on at least six of his properties, totaling about $365,000 in unpaid taxes.

Although the exact timeline for the unpaid taxes remains unclear, reports suggest West’s tax bill has been compounded by monthly penalties to the tune of $3,272.

According to the U.S. Sun, the “Donda” rapper will also have to pay up to $82,662 by April 10 on some of his Los Angeles properties. Otherwise, the Los Angeles County Treasurer and Tax Collector will punish him more financially.

It remains unknown if he intends to settle the debt or contest the charges amid his prolonged absence from the country.
