Yandel tops annual list of highest-paid singers

In 2022 it looked like the singer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (November 20) that Yandel is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $50 million lead over his 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 Puerto Rican singer-producer has an estimated net worth of $245 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Yandel Burger” chain) in San Juan, a Football Team (the “Cayey Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderyandel - Puerto Rico), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Yandel) and a fashion line called “Yandel Seduction”.

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