Jay Z - revenue 2018

The source provided the following information about the methodology: "Money Makers was compiled with Nielsen Music and Billboard Boxscore information, using 2018 U.S. data only. All revenue figures cited are Billboard estimates and may not equal the sum of the subcategories due to rounding. Unless otherwise noted, references to streaming totals consist of combined on-demand audio and video streams. References to recording-career totals are the sum of an act’s sales, streaming and publishing earnings. Revenue from featured-artist appearances, merchandising, synchronization and sponsorship is not included. Touring revenue, after the manager’s cut, equals 34 percent of an act’s Boxscore. The top 10 lists for sales royalties were calculated based on physical and digital albums and track sales; streaming royalties consist of on-demand audio and video streams, and estimated royalties from webcasting, SiriusXM and Music Choice.."
Some of the figures have been rounded.
