Jay-Z is one of the most successful men in the music industry. As well as his roster of albums (if you count his collaborative efforts there s well above 20 to his name), he s the founder of streaming service Tidal and entertainment company Roc Nation, has stakes in Uber, recently sold his Armand De Brignac champagne brand to LVMH and still co-owns D’Ussé alongside beverage giant Bacardi.
And while this year
Forbes estimated his net worth to have surpassed the £1 billion mark (add Beyoncé s personal wealth and you ve got the richest pairing in music), Jay-Z hasn t let his success go to his head. The rapper/producer/writer could easily fork out the £30,000 now needed to cop a pair of those Dior x Air Jordan sneaks or even the £32,000 that his own collaborative Roc Nation Filas demand over at Farfetch. Yet he s still walking around in shoes that you could go and buy right now.
