Chief Keef’s not the only one laughing to the bank.

Even after his death, the legendary Michael Jackson has seen massive success, and we’re not talking little numbers- try $700,000,000.

No, that was no typo. One of the greatest of all time has racked up $700 million since his untimely death in 2009. According to Forbes, he has made more than Jay Z, Taylor Swift & Kanye combined, which since ’09 only adds up to a meager $544 million. He has officially become the richest artist dead or alive, & by the looks of it, he’ll continue to keep that spot for quite some time. Between the concerts, albums, & Cirque du Soleil shows based off his life, Michael Jackson continues to reign as not only the greatest entertainer, but one of the greatest businessmen in the music industry to date.

Salute to the King.
