Are you looking for a rapper to perform at your next birthday party? Want to know how much rappers make for a single concert performance? Well, wonder no more because we’ve gone ahead and found the fees many of today’s top hip-hop stars charge for a single evening show. How impressed would your friends be to see 50 Cent walk into your back yard, microphone in hand? Or maybe Eminem is more your style and perhaps you’ll rent out a local night club? Interestingly, it turns out that some fairly big name rappers are relatively affordable. For example just $10,000 would get you Meek Mill for a night. On the other hand, some of these rappers are the opposite of affordable. To illustrate just how expensive they can be, we’ve compiled the top 15 highest earners in the following gallery.
