How Drake spends his US$180 million net worth: Billboard’s Artist of the Decade rocks million-dollar outfits, sleeps in a US$400,000 bed and collected a wardrobe of Hermès Birkin bags for a future wife
- His Toronto mansion is worth US$150 million and features an NBA regulation-size indoor basketball court
- He was given a Boeing 767, has a US$400,000 Hästens Grand Vividus bed and wears million-dollar designer outfits accessorised with rare Richard Mille watches
Drake is making music history. The 34-year-old Toronto native, born Aubrey Drake Graham, is poised to receive the Artist of the Decade award at the 2021 Billboards Music Awards (BBMA) on May 23.
He is more than qualified to receive such an accolade. Drake holds the distinction of being the most awarded artist in Billboard history with 27 trophies under his belt. He has scored eight No 1 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and has won critical acclaim with nine No 1 albums to boot.
Not surprisingly, Drake has made some money out of all of these hits. In 2019, Forbes estimated his net worth at US$150 million, while more recent estimates go up to US$180 million. So what luxury items has he splurged on?
He flashed an outfit worth nearly US$1 million
Drake was featured on The Unknown Vlogs, a YouTube channel that breaks down the cost of people’s outfits. It revealed that the rapper wore an almost-million-dollar outfit after wrapping up his Assassination Vacation tour gig at The O2 in London in 2019.
The rapper broke down each piece: a US$11, 000 custom Brioni jacket inscribed with “Brioni for Aubrey Graham”; Tom Ford pieces consisting of a polo neck, trousers and crocodile shoes worth US$2,000, US$1,000 and US$15,000 respectively; a custom diamond chain for US$200,000; and to top it off, a Richard Mille RM 69 watch at US$750, 000.
