Pitbull is One of The World’s Highest-Paid Hip-Hop Acts of 2018

Forbes released its annual list of the highest paid hip-hop artists of the year on Wednesday, and Pitbull made the Top 10 for the ninth consecutive year!

Mr. Worldwide grossed over $32,000,000 over the past 12-months, landing him in the eighth spot on the legendary Forbes Hip-Hop Cash Kings list, which marked the earnings of the top hip-hop artists from August 2017 to 2018. The Cuban-American artist surpassed fellow heavyweights like Kanye West, Chance the Rapper, and Migos.

This year’s income is $5,000,000 more than last year’s thanks to the success of Pitbull’s co-headlining tour with Enrique Iglesias in the Fall of last year, and this year’s Piece Of Me Tour with Britney Spears. The 37-year-old rapper grosses a healthy six figures per tour stop.
