J. Cole – German/U.S

Jermaine Lamarr Cole, or better known as J. Cole, was born on January 28, 1985, in Fayetteville, North Carolina, on a military base in Germany. He is a rapper, actor, songwriter, and record producer, who is considered one of his generation’s most influential rappers.

His fourth album, 4 Your Eyez Only, which was influenced by jazz, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. J. Cole’s next album, KOD, was his fifth number-one album on the Billboard 200. This also got the then-record six simultaneous top 20 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, tying with The Beatles. As of 2020, he earned $117 million from his career. He must have done a lot of financial planning to keep track of his money, as his net worth as of 2020 is now a whopping $60 million – as expected of this amazing rapper.
