GARTH BROOKS – EST. $400 MILLION

Garth Brooks is another of the most recognizable names in country music. His sound is unique, a mix of both rock and pop elements, which made him the best-selling solo album artist in the country with more than 148 million copies sold worldwide, which was more than that of Elvis Presley. He’s only exceeded by the English rock band, The Beatles, in the number of albums sold.

As of 2020, he holds the distinction of being the only artist in music history to have released seven albums that all achieved diamond status in the US. At 58 years old, he remains at the top of his game, even after a brief hiatus from 2001 to 2005 due to conflict between family and career. In March 2020, he was given the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. Garth also has investments in Pearl Records, his record label, where future projects would be released.
