According to Celebrity Net Worth, the "Money Trees" artist has a net worth of $75 to $85 million. Most of his earnings came from his hit songs and albums. In 2018, he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Music with his multi-platinum selling 2017 album "Damn." He was the first rapper to achieve such a feat.

The 36-year-old artist has also partnered with several brands, such as Light Phone and Nike, among many others. He was also a previous ambassador of Reebok.


 

J. Cole and Lamar's feud reportedly started when the former and Drake released "First Person Shooter," which was included in Drake's 2023 album "For All the Dogs."

They rapped, "Love when they argue the hardest MC / Is it K. Dot? Is It Aubrey? Or me? / We big three, like we started a league."

Lamar responded with "Like That," which featured the lyrics: "Yeah, get up with me, f**k sneak dissing / 'First Person Shooter,' I hope they came with three switches. Motherf**k the big three, n***, it's just big me."

  

J. Cole also addressed the "Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers" artist with a diss track titled "7 Minute Drill" with the lyrics: "I got a phone call, they say that somebody dissing / You want some attention, it comes with extensions."

"He still doing shows but fell off like 'The Simpsons' / Your first s**t was classic, your last s**t was tragic / Your second s**t put n***s to sleep, but they gassed it / Your third s**t was massive, and that was your prime / I was trailing right behind and I just now hit mine."

However, he ended up regretting dissing Lamar per his speech when he headlined the Dreamville Festival in North Carolina on Sunday.

"I'm so proud of ['Might Delete Later'], except for one part. It's one part of the s**t that makes me feel like, man, that's the lamest s**t I did in my f***in' life, right?" he said.

"I want to say right now tonight, how many people think Kendrick Lamar is one of the motherf***ers to ever touch a f***in' microphone? Dreamville, you all love Kenrick Lamar, correct? As do I."
