Rihanna Becomes The 3rd Richest Musician In UK: Full List
The Singer and Song writer Rihanna becomes the 3rd Richest Musician In UK After relocating To London Last Year.
Rihanna now among the top ranking richest musician in UK according to the annual list of its wealthiest music stars. Although the singer hasn’t released any new music in the past few years, she is still, first and foremost, a musical artist, and it turns out, one of the richest in the country.
Reports from Britain’s Sunday Times, ranks Rihanna the 3rd Richest Musician on the UK’s annual list of its wealthiest music stars, her first inclusion in the rankings since this move to London last year.
Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber and Sir Paul McCartney, tied at No. 1 each with a net worth of £800 million, approximately $985 million USD. Rihanna sits on the third spot with a net worth of £468 million, approximately $576 million USD.
However Rihanna’s wealth comes largely from the sales from her Fenty fashion and lingerie brands and her Fenty Beauty line. Robert Watts who compiled the list speculates that next year, the list will look a little different due to the current state of the music industry as a result of the pandemic.
He said “The cancellations of tours and the pulling of albums mean it will be a thin year,”. “We expect most artists’ earnings to flatline but not for them to necessarily lose money, because the bulk of their wealth is already earned and safely in their bank accounts.”

DJ Kay Slay Allegedly Died Of AIDS
A former friend of DJ Kay Slay is spreading a very disturbing rumor about him – saying that he knows what truly killed the legendary NYC DJ. This former friend is telling people on Clubhouse that Kay Slay “died of AIDS.”
Snow Billy, is a former friend of Kay Slay and NYC rapper who once managed Tekashi 6ix9ine. He went on Clubhouse yesterday and told his listeners, “DJ/rapper Kay Slay had full blown AIDS.”
Officially, Kay Slay’s family released a statement at the time of his death – saying that the legendary DJ passed away after a long bout of Covid-19. The family did not reveal any other comorbidity that may have contributed to his death.
We are not able to confirm the veracity of Snow Billy’s statements – and it doesn’t appear that he has any evidence to back up his claims either.
But even without any evidence, Snow Billy’s ‘AIDS’ rumor is spreading like wildfire all over social media.
Listen to the hundreds of people on Clubhouse discussing the rumor that Snow Billy started. We’re not posting the audio here, because it contains a lot of bad language, and many questionable assertions.
