Akon | $80 Million | Businessman

Akon is a famous Hollywood artist born in St. Louis, Missouri, to  Mor Thiam, a percussionist, and Kine Gueye Thiam, a dance. As a child, Akon learned to play five instruments, including drums, djembe, and guitar. Later on, the young Akon met music mogul Devyne Stephen who signed him to his production company, Upfront Megatainment, and groomed him professionally. Akon is now an extremely popular figure in the music industry, and his tracks Smack That and Locked Up are smash hits globally.

Akon currently has a net worth of $80 million. The music artist has also gotten involved in many business ventures since his success. He founded a record label company called Akonik Label Group, started a clothing line called Konvict Clothing, and a more high-end clothing brand named Aliaune. We just hope his investments have all prospered since their launch.
