Ye had an estimated net worth of $2 billion, way ahead of Dwayne Johnson. However, after recently his deal with Adidas got cut off, his net worth fell to a stooping $400 million.

Kanye West’s anti-Semitic comments led to Adidas cutting their deal short with West. Which led to him no longer being a billionaire, with even Forbes removing him from the list.
