Kid Ink has a contract with an RCA Records and his most well known songs are “Show Me”, “Main Chick” and “Iz U Down”.

Kid Ink Net Worth $200,000

Kid Ink, whose real name is Brian Todd Collins, was born in 1986 in Los Angeles, California, USA. As a teenager he felt inspired by such personalities as Pharrell Williams and Timbaland because of their versatile approach to music, and he was very interested in production of records. Brian began his career in music as a producer of beats and called himself DJ Rockstar. Under that name he made a mixtape called “World Tour” but later he became Kid Ink and under this new name made series of mixtapes such as ”Crash Landing” and “Daydreamer”. These turned out to be pretty successful and gave him an opportunity to be included into “Freshman Class of 2012” of XXL Magazine. It was an important step in Kid Ink’s career but soon after that he managed to make even bigger one as he released his first album called “Up & Away”. It was released in 2012 by “Tha Alumni”, an independent label, and an interesting fact about this album is that all singing was done by Kid Ink himself, while the music was contributed by several different producers. “Up & Away” debuted at number. 20 on the Billboard’s top 200 chart and in the first week more than 20,000 copies were sold. That is when Kid Ink net worth began to grow! This album also became one of the most downloaded albums on iTunes in the hip-hop category.

It was all happening very fast to Kid Ink – soon after the release of his first studio album he was noticed by RCA Records and offered a deal. The deal was signed and soon a single called “Bad Ass” came out which was followed by a second album “Almost Home”. This one was as successful as the first one and featured such artists as Meek Mill, Wale, French Montana and ASAP Ferg. In 2013 the third Kid Ink’s album named “My Own Lane” was released and became one of the best selling rap music albums of the year. Such a success obviously contributed to Kid Ink net worth and no doubt that his wealth will only grow in the future.

Kid Ink is rather an exception in a rap music scene in regards to his easy and fast road to success, likely thanks to his talent and unique style. Even a Forbes magazine has featured and article called “Kid Ink and the Future of Hip-Hop” which proves his potential.
