Rappers are signed to record deals which helps them with distribution, studio time, promotions etc.. It is helpful but rappers have contracts with their record deals because they need to pay their record deals too. Famous rappers get around $2-4 for every album they sell. That gives them around $3,000,000-$4,000,000. Then famous rappers get $50,000-$100,000 for every feature. Lil Wayne and Eminem can get up to $150,000 for every feature. Some rappers are also in the business industry such as Diddy, Jay-Z, and Birdman. All their other money comes from shows. Rappers like Lil Wayne, Drake, Eminem, Jay-Z, and Kanye West can make up to $500,000 per show and they have at least 5-10 shows a year.
