Metro Boomin Net Worth $6 Million
Metro went to Parkway North High School in his hometown, and it was during these years that he started making music; his mother bought him a laptop, while he obtained a copy of the music software FruityLoops. After making several tracks and posting them online, he soon caught the attention of such musicians as Tay Don, and later OJ Da Juiceman, Gucci Mane and Future. His mother started driving him from St. Louis to Atlanta where he would meet with his musician friends, and they started making music together, which eventually resulted in a long-term collaboration. He moved to Atlanta after he finished high school, and began studying business management at Morehouse College, but after only one semester, he quit studies and focused entirely on music. Soon he scheduled work with such artists as Nicki Minaj, Future, who became one of his main collaborators, Yo Gotti, Wiz Khalifa, The Weekend, Lana Del Rey, among many others, which launched him to stardom and subsequently increased his net worth.
Thanks to his initial success working on music for other musicians, Metro decided to start working on his own mixtape, entitled “19 & Boomin”, featuring such artists as Gucci Mane, and Trinidad James among many others, and was made available for download which only increased its popularity. Since then, Metro has worked on two studio albums – “Without Warning” released in October 2017, and “Double or Nothing” which came out on the 8th December 2017, and is yet to enter the charts. His debut studio album topped the US Rap chart, while it peaked at No. 4 on the US Billboard 200 chart, and sold in 11,000 copies, plus he also worked on the EP “Savage Mode”, which came out in July 2016, and the mixtape “Perfect Timing”, which is a collaboration with NAV, released in July 2017. All helped increase Boomin’s net worth considerably.
However, his main income comes from his work as a record producer; some of his most successful creations include the song “Where Ya At”, with Drake, which achieved triple platinum status, “Jumpman” with Drake and Future, which was certified platinum four times, and the “Mask Off”, a song performed by Future, which has achieved multiple platinum status in several countries, including the US and Australia, and diamond in France, adding a considerable amount to Metro Boomin’s wealth.
