Kanye West is once again claiming to be a billionaire, but one prominent publication isn’t buying it. On Thursday, Kanye posted a screenshot from Eton Venture Services, a business valuation company that claims the rap mogul is worth $2.77 billion.
“In 2025, Ye’s net worth stands at $2.77 billion USD as confirmed by Eton Venture Services, “The valuation is based on his music portfolio and his sole ownership of the Yeezy mark.”

Despite his claims, Forbes still contends that Kanye is worth $400 million.

According to Forbes, Kanye lost his billionaire status when he got dropped by Adidas in 2022 over antisemitic comments.

Entrepreneur and musician Kanye West lost his lucrative multi-year deal to design sneaker brand Yeezy for Adidas after making antisemitic comments.
Other brands and companies that cut ties to West, who formally changed his name to Ye, include Gap, CAA and Balenciaga
Forbes had valued the Adidas deal at $1.5 billion. Without it, West’s fortune drops to $400 million.
His current fortune includes cash, real estate, the value of his music catalog and a 5% stake in his ex-wife Kim Kardashian West’s shapewear brand Skims.
While Kanye is not a billionaire in Forbes’ eyes, being valued at $400 million is still a lot.
