<p id=”par-1_22″>Seeing <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/kanye-west/?swcfpc=1″>Kanye West</a> and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/sean-diddy-combs/?swcfpc=1″>Sean “Diddy” Combs</a>‘ names in the news is almost a daily occurrence, but not for anything positive. </p>
<p id=”par-2_73″>We’re hearing about Combs so often as his sex trafficking trial has been covered by every major news outlet. As for West, he’s not standing trial for anything, but it seems like he’s trying to commit career suicide every time he opens his mouth. Moreover, West is one of Diddy’s only allies left and the “Famous” <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/rappers/?swcfpc=1″>rapper</a> recently teamed up with the disgraced music mogul’s son for a track called “Diddy Free.”</p>
<p id=”par-3_75″>On June 27, Christian “King” Combs released a new EP titled “Never Stop,” in which West served as the executive producer. “Diddy Free” is one of the seven tracks with the chorus “Ain’t goin’ to sleep ’til we see Diddy free” and includes the lyrics: “They be takin’ shots, they can’t trigger me, nah (S*** don’t trigger me) / F*** the world, critics and the witness / Face clean, they tryna dirt the image (F***).” </p>
<p id=”par-4_52″>Ye also made a brief courtroom appearance at Diddy’s trial earlier this month. Given their scandals and the state of their reputations, both men have seen their net worth diminish quite a bit. So who’s worth more at this point? Here’s the answer to that as well as who’s older. </p>

<p id=”par-5_29″>West was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on June 8, 1977. His parents got divorced when he was 3 years old and he moved with his mother to Chicago. </p>
<p id=”par-6_32″>In addition to his music, West branched out into several different business ventures, most notably fashion with his Yeezy apparel line, which he owns outright 100%, and partnerships with Adidas and Gap. </p>
<p id=”par-7_41″>As <a href=”https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/richest-rappers/kanye-west-net-worth/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Celebrity Net Worth</a> noted, “In March 2021, a UBS valuation estimated that Yeezy would add $3-4 billion to Kanye’s net worth bottom line. The same report estimated Kanye’s former deal with Gap previously added $1 billion to West’s net worth.”</p>
<p id=”par-8_58″>The “Through the Wire” artist made it onto Forbes magazine’s “Billionaire” list with an estimated net worth of $2 billion, and some publications claimed it was once as high as $6.6 billion. However, West’s antisemitic comments and questionable behavior over the years led to several dropped deals, and today his net worth is estimated at $400 million. </p>
