It’s that time of year again.

The MTV Video Music Awards 2017 will be heating up screens on August 27th live from The Forum in Los Angeles.

Hailed as one of the most important days on the Pop music calendar, all eyes are on who is up for coveted Moonmen at the show’s 33rd instalment. Especially with MTV eliminating gendered categories.

Kendrick Lamar leads with 8 noms, with Katy Perry and The Weeknd following with five apiece. But what about the rest of the list?

Without further ado, the answer awaits below…

In 1995, the 14-year-old Monica emerged onto Pop’s scene with the R&B album ‘Miss Thang.’

In 2017, twenty two years later, the vocalist has seen the career the album launched push her net worth to meteoric heights!

How so?

Details after the visual below…

When her income is prised away from numbers pulled in by her husband Shannon Brown, the star’s personal net worth rises to the $15 million mark.

That’s right..

15,000,000.

How the vocalist did it?

The answer to that question lies in the 5.3 million units her albums have moved in the United States, her commercially fruitful time with Berliner and Johnson‘s RCA Records and the lyrical contributions she made to her discography.

The difference between one’s net worth and income?

Your net worth is the value of your personal possessions (cars, houses and other personal possessions) sans all debts or liabilities.

Income on the other hand measures how much you earn after deductions like taxes have been made.

Unfortunately, because the ‘Code Red‘ star didn’t contribute to the creation of her Brandy-led smash hit cut ‘The Boy is Mine‘, she does not receive any of the money generated by its sales.

However, as her net worth proves, the song’s absence from her bank balance has done little to stop her from becoming one of her genre’s highest-earning stars.

Your thoughts?

Katy Perry is to bag between 10 and 15 million dollars for her forthcoming run on ‘American Idol.’

On a mission to rescue her ‘Witness’ era from the racism scandal she faces, the vocalist is set to collect the meaty amount from producers who are keen to revamp the series on a ratings front.

‘Vanity Fair‘ reports:

ABC raised the 15-year franchise from the dead well before it was cold in its Fox grave, causing consternation both within the network and outside of it—especially after two of Idol’s most starry alumni, Kelly Clarkson and Jennifer Hudson, pointedly signed on to serve as judges on the next season of NBC’s The Voice instead of the undead series that made them famous. Clearly, Idol could use a big name both to shore up its judging panel and justify its quick return—and according to Entertainment Weekly, Idol had actually tried for years to sign Perry.

The publication adds…

Now that it finally has her, the network is allegedly offering her somewhere between $10 to $15 million.

Do you think she deserves that much?

“Partner let me upgrade you”

According to new data, that’s exactly what Beyonce and Jay Z have done to one another. For, the music superstars have officially been christened a billion-dollar couple.

Forbes have complied statistics about the power pair which revealed their new status.

Said report puts their combined net-worth at a colossal $1.16 billion.

The monetary split is interesting.

As noted in a separate tally, Bey is believed to be worth $350 million – thanks largely to her music, touring, and fashion endeavours. Jay, however, brings the lion-share of the coin to the table with a fortune of $810 million.

Jigga’s total factors in his Roc Nation empire, which just grew bigger after he inked a $200 million 10-year deal with Live Nation. There’s also his streaming service TIDAL, which for all its woes, got a measured lease of life after Sprint bought a sizeable percentage at the start of the year.

*************

Winning would be an understatement.

At this junction, The Carters are an empire. More power to them.

Your thoughts?

Contrary to what is often taught in the public system, many African-Americans still find themselves burdened with the legacy of housing discrimination and the obstruction of programs designed to combat institutionalised racism.

All of this, as many know, has gone a long way to impact the educational experiences of children raised in communities hit hardest by these horrors.

Now, Chance the Rapper has stepped up to combat these crimes.
