    Kanye West has reportedly doubled his billion-dollar net worth in less than a year.

    On Wednesday (March 17), Bloomberg announced that Kanye's net worth has skyrocketed to $6.6 billion. The article suggests a majority of the 43-year-old rapper's earnings come from his sneaker and apparel brand Yeezy. Last year, Kanye claimed he was worth $3.3 billion.

    The clothing company has secured partnerships with Adidas AG and Gap Inc. and has reportedly been valued between $3.2 billion and $4.7 billion by UBS Group AG. The value of the rapper-producer's GAP deal, which is expected to be available this summer, could make up as much as $970 million of the aforementioned amount.

    The other portion of ’Ye's wealth—reportedly provided by Kanye's attorney—comes from $122 million in cash and stocks, $110 million from his music catalog and $1.7 billion in other assets. Kim Kardashian's shapewear company, Skims, is another source of Kanye's income as he has invested in the underwear line.

    And while the two entertainers are supposedly wading through divorce dealings, which Kim Kardashian reportedly filed for in mid-February, it's unclear if the Grammy Award-winning rhymer will still be involved in her business once their alleged separation is finalized.

    Last April, Forbes confirmed Kanye West had become hip-hop's second billionaire—the first being Jay-Z. Initially, the publication claimed Kanye was worth $1.5 billion, but the Chicago native came out claiming he was worth nearly three times as much.

    “It’s $3.3 billion since no one at Forbes knows how to count," the G.O.O.D. Music founder affirmed, correcting the article.

    That’s wild. Dude is worth 6 Jay-Z’s even without the narrative of being a savvy “businessman” that they like to credit Jay with so much. All off a brand named after himself. Who’s really the business, man?

    If I was going through a divorce I would have no money and be broke no matter how rich I was.

    What's wild is that you believe that.

    The Kardashians aren't worth anywhere what they claim they are. Lying about having billions of dollars is a part of their business.

    Kanye doesn't have his own masters because Jay Z owned them... and Jay traded them to Def Jam for his own masters.

    Jay Z just sold a worthless streaming service no one uses to Jack Dorsey for $300 million.

    Kanye probably has a billion dollars... maybe... I'm sure the Kardashians encouraged him to go out and say he has way more... so its easier for Kim to come out a head in the divorce. Kanye took the bait.

    When you break down those “billions” ...I’m sure you have to add all the other organizations that make money from Kanye brand...highly doubt he has that in assets in net worth.....that would mean he invested all the money and was the main proprietor in all those business ventures..and owned every part of the logistics...which is not true...let’s not forget the taxes....

    Kanye brand is worth billions is believable....

    I’m not how business savvy Kanye is...I’m sure he has a team...he is a big brand no doubt....I can see his brand being worth that amount...because of the success he has had with those brands he merged with

    I don't believe Kanye's brand is worth billions. Especially now.

    You have to be completely naive if you think Kanye is worth over a 1/3rd as much as the company Adidas... just because he says so... this makes me think he is f---ing broke again.

    How can someone be "believed" or "reportedly" worth a certain amount? Surely they either are or they aren't?
