From Mixtapes To Millions, These Rappers Broke Every Single Rule

Timbaland – $85 Million

Flip the beat, change the game, that’s what Timothy Zachery Mosley has been doing since the 1990s. Born March 10, 1972, the world calls him Timbaland, and his fingerprints are all over modern music. He helped launch the careers of Missy Elliott and Aaliyah, cooked hits for Justin Timberlake, and built an empire worth $85 million by 2025.

His album “Shock Value” blended rap, pop, and electro long before that was the trend. In 2024, he joined the Songwriters Hall of Fame and reunited with Justin and Nelly Furtado for “Keep Going Up.” He didn’t follow sounds, he invented them, and he’s still pressing play.
