There has been a pretty steep rise in the popularity of hip-hop over the past decade. It seems like there is a new artist on the horizon every week. Here is a look at one of the newest rappers in the game, Yung Gravy’s net worth.
Who is Yung Gravy?
If you haven’t heard of him yet, you will soon. Yung Gravy, born Matthew Raymond Hauri, is an American rapper from Rochester, Minnesota. He’s still pretty new on the scene, so there isn’t much information to find out about him (yet). Here’s what we do know…
Hauri, aka “Gravy,” was born on March 19, 1996. After graduating high school, he attended the University of Wisconsin. He left the institution with a degree in marketing in December 2017. It was during his time in college that he began rapping. At first, Hauri was just doing it for fun (upon request) at parties and other events.
It wasn’t until his junior year that he really started taking his rap career seriously. He quit his job and began spending more time recording songs. Eventually, he took on the performance name “Yung Gravy.”
Gravy’s Career
That was in 2016, so Yung Gravy is still taking off in his career. However, he already has a few recognizable hits like Mr. Clean, 1 Thot 2 Thot Red Thot Blue Thot, and Alley Oop. Yung Gravy has even worked with other, more tenured, rappers, such as Lil Baby.
Gravy’s music style is a blend of trap music and oldies. Specifically, he leans towards using tracks from some of the 1950s and 1960s hits. The song Mr. Clean has music from the popular oldie, Mr. Sandman.
Since 2017, he’s gone on two North American tours. The young rapper traveled with other talents such as Ugly God. During that time Yung Gravy has also released four EPs, a mixtape, and two studio albums. That is a lot to accomplish in just three years! So, what has all of that hard work done for Yung Gravy’s net worth?
Yung Gravy’s Net Worth: $600,000
After just four years of focusing on his rap career, Yung Gravy’s net worth could be in the millions. It is estimated his wealth sits somewhere between $500,000 and $2 million, with most estimates landing at $600,000.
Currently, Gravy does not have any assets that contribute to his overall wealth. But, compared to other similar artists, Yung Gravy is doing fairly well. Here is how his wealth stacks up…
- Josh A, another fellow rapper, only has a net worth of $100,000.
- Rapper DBangz has an estimated net worth of $200,000.
- Ugly God, who traveled with Yung Gravy, has been able to reach a net worth of $3 million.
Given the wealth numbers of similar performers, it is likely Yung Gravy probably won’t see a lot more money, not immediately anyway. If the rapper’s career really takes off in a commercial way though, he could easily see his net worth rise to be in the millions (even tens of millions).
