A$AP Rocky is going to buy EFL Club Tranmere Rovers as part of an investment group run by famous lawyer Joe Tacopina. Here is a look at how much money the rapper has right now.
Rakim Mayers, who goes by the stage name A$AP Rocky, and his lawyer Joe Tacopina are going to court on Monday, October 21, to answer charges that the rapper was involved in a murder. In the meantime, the two are also making moves in soccer. They want to invest in the British football club Tranmere Rovers.
Another story is that Rocky recently talked to W Magazine about being a dad and his relationship with Rihanna. Rocky has two kids with Rihanna: RZA, 2, and Riot Rose, 15 months. He told her, “I knew from when we were younger.” Is that how he knew the “Diamonds” singer was the right person to be his kids’ mother? I think we both did. That made sense when we were older. We just got back in touch. They met in 2012, but didn’t start dating until seven years later.
Here is a look at the rapper’s wealth, which includes his partner Rihanna’s huge net worth.
How much does A$AP Rocky make?
Experts at Celebrity Net Worth say that the rapper is worth a cool $20 million right now. Forbes says that Rocky made an amazing $14.5 million in 2016. His pay changes based on when he tours and when new albums come out.
As of right now, he’s busy getting ready for the fall release of his long-awaited record Don’t Be Dumb. Rocky is well-known for his work as a record producer, going by the name Lord Flacko. He is also successful in hip-hop and clothing.
In how much money does Rihanna have?
She is an actress, singer, songwriter, and businesswoman from Barbados. Her net worth is $1.4 billion. She used to be the richest female singer in the world, but earlier this month, Taylor Swift’s wealth grew thanks to the success of her Eras Tour, which made her worth an estimated $1.6 billion.
A$AP Rocky is putting money into an English football club.
Rocky and Tacopina have worked together for a number of years, mostly on law issues. Rocky was charged with assault in 2019 in Sweden, and Tacopina was his lawyer. Their business relationship has changed since then, and now Tacopina is helping Rocky with his Tranmere Rovers investment. The “Praise the Lord” singer is said to be in an investment group run by the famous lawyer with a long history in Italian football. He was part of the American group that bought AS Roma in 2011, and then he moved on to Bologna three years later.
A person told The Sun, “Rocky is close with Joe and has committed to the Tranmere bid.” The plan is to buy a big piece of the British football club for about $20 million. The person also said, “Joe has been to Tranmere games, and Rocky plans to go after the deal is done.” Rihanna might even show up at a League Two game. Joe thinks that Tranmere, a famous club close to Liverpool, is not worth what it’s worth and that he can change that with smart marketing and a star endorsement. That might be possible with Rocky on board.
Rocky has also seen a chance by watching the success of Wrexham, a team that got a lot of attention even though they weren’t in the Premier League.
What is Joe Tacopina?
Rocky’s lawyer started out as a prosecutor in Brooklyn. He later went into private practice and became famous for taking on high-profile clients in famous cases. Alex Rodriguez, the third baseman for the New York Yankees, and Michael Jackson, the pop star, have been his clients.
Tacopina used to work for Donald Trump’s law team. He was with Trump when he pleaded not guilty in New York in April of last year to charges of lying about business records about payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels for hush money. Also, Tacopina defended Trump in a legal case for slander and battery brought by E. Jean Carroll, a former Elle magazine columnist. Trump was found guilty and had to pay Carroll $5 million in damages.
