Solange Knowles tops annual list of highest-paid singers

In 2022 it looked like the singer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (March 12) that Knowles is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between February 2024 and February 2025, a nearly $40 million lead over her closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American singer-songwriter-actress-model-dancer has an estimated net worth of $215 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Knowles Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Houston Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderknowles - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Solange) and a fashion line called “Solange Knowles Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Solange fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
