With six studio albums under his belt, multiple endorsement deals, and a growing fanbase, it’s no surprise that U.S. rapper Logic has been able to amass a whopping $14 million fortune.
The 31-year-old has worked with a ton of rap superstars in the music industry, having penned one of the best-selling songs of 2017 with 1-800-273-8255, which also earned a Grammy nomination for Song Of The Year and Best Music Video.
So, how exactly has Logic, whose real name is Sir Robert Bryson Hall II, been growing his net worth over the years, and does he have any other business ventures outside of music?
Logic’s Net Worth
Life wasn’t always easy for Logic, who grew up in an abusive household — his mother was an alcoholic while his father dealt with a severe drug addiction to cocaine. To make matters even worse, his siblings were drug dealers, according to Money Inc, so it was almost as if all odds were against Logic, who developed a passion for music in his teenage years.
At 13, he would meet his mentor Solomon Taylor, and after having formed a close friendship with one another, the latter would offer Logic several instrumentals to write lyrics for, which is when he decided to work on his stage name.
In 2009, Logic went by the name of Psychological when he released his first unofficial mixtape, Psychological-Logic: The Mixtape.
The following year, he would drop his official mixtape, Young, Broke & Infamous, which was so well-received, it garnered him a lot of attention from his fellow industry peers and Hip Hop fans around the world.
His second mixtape, Young Sinatra, came out in 2011 followed by his third project, Young Sinatra: Undeniable, in 2012.
The latter mixtape was the most personal he had been with fans at that point in his career, having opened up on some of the challenges he’d faced growing up in a difficult household where nothing but chaos and destruction ruled his environment.
By 2013, Logic had already gone on multiple nationwide tours in support of the projects he had released over the years, but his big break came that very same year when a record deal was offered to him with Def Jam Recordings — just after he had put out his fourth mixtape, Young Sinatra: Welcome to Forever.
By October 2014, his career was in full effect, with Under Pressure — his debut album — hitting stores. He amended his stage name to Logic after his signing with Def Jam because it had a better ring to it, and we definitely agree.
The record performed fairly well, peaking at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 200 and selling 72,000 copies in its first week, while production work was offered by a string of A-list producers including No. I.D., Tae Beast, and Dun Deal.
From there, he went on to release the following albums: The Incredible True Story, Everybody, YSIV, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, and 2020’s No Pressure, which have helped Logic sell over five million units combined for his record label.
Aside from music and touring, Logic has also proven himself to be quite the businessman.
In July 2020, it was reported that he had signed a seven-figure exclusive streaming deal with Twitch following the announcement that he was retiring from music to get back to what he loves the most, which he says is playing video games.
“I’m not this rapper guy, man,” NME quotes him saying in a statement about his partnership with Twitch. “I’m just a nerd. I love video games. I’m blessed enough to have millions of fans and followers. So it is a great partnership.”
“I think it’s a powerful platform that allows me to connect with my fans in the best way possible. And the safest way possible for someone in my position.”
Whether or not he really has quit music for good has yet to be seen. It’s also unclear whether Logic is still signed to Def Jam — for all fans know, the “retirement” news could just be a PR stunt to hype up his next album.
But then again, the Maryland native has already stressed not being “this rapper guy,” which strongly indicates that he may no longer have the passion for music.
Either way, it’s unlikely that Logic will have any money issues in the future. While a seven-figure deal sounds great, it’s the money he’ll accumulate from fans during his streams that’s really going to bring in some serious money if he plans to make Twitch streaming his day-to-day job.
