How much do you think the top producers are worth? i.e. Timbaland...

[PokerAmateur4]

Anyone have some guesses about the net worth of him and other producers?

I looked it up on yahoo answers for you.

i guarantee you that timbaland is in an entirely different league, $$$-wise from any other current hip0hop/r+b producer. so it's not "i.e. Timbaland...."

however...musicians in general never make the kind of money that actors/directors do, and hip-hop people in general have terribly extravagant spending habits. i'd guess net worth of $15,000,000-ish.

edit: figures not based on any real knowledge. i would bet money on Timbaland making way the [censored] more than Scott Storch though.

That's why, at 6 a.m., after five straight hours tinkering with Jessica Simpson's beat, when Storch jumps in his Lamborghini, he drives to an island and pulls up to his mansion, a classic Italian villa with a strong Greco-Roman theme, a gaudy residence that resembles the mansion Al Pacino's Scarface lived in. In the main house, there's seven bedrooms and fourteen bathrooms, high ceilings, three levels, marble floors, marble columns, gold-plated bathroom sinks, a huge eat-in kitchen and a great view of Biscayne Bay. There's also two fountains, a pair of two-bedroom guesthouses, a pool cabana and garage space for eight cars. Storch bought the place in the spring. The sellers asked for $16 million, but Storch says he got it for eleven, a record price for that area. "This home isn't for everybody," he says. "It's a little intimidating for a typical family." Out front there's all sorts of exotic cars -- a Ferrari, an SLR McLaren, a Rolls Phantom, a Maybach, an old Trans Am, several Bentleys -- and out back, parked in the bay, is his 125-foot, $20 million yacht named Tiffany. He sold his previous yacht, Storchavelli.

Scott Storch was the first person who came to mind. The hottest producers are worth insane amounts of money.

I like Timbaland a lot, I think the personality he gives. Scott on the otherhand just seems like he would be the worlds largest douche and a huge pain to deal with. It made me lol when I saw the video of him not getting into a club cause he tried to bring a 20yo girl with him and they all got carded and refused entry.

Well, The Neptunes (Pharrell and Chad Hugo), are worth like $150 mil. They are in the top 5 I think. I don't know who the other tops would be, but some names that come to mind are Timbaland, Scott Storch, Kanye West, Dr. Dre. I'm sure there's others.

[kleath]

Storch is worth like 60 or 70 I've heard.

Its a lot easier to make money as a top producer compared to a top rapper.

[eviljeff]

any producer with his own line of shoes has to be worth sick amounts of money

[J.C. Gloves]

These guys sell their "beats" @ like $100k a song. Just think about how many songs they've all done...
