Jay-Z
Jay-Z might just be one of the most famous rappers in history! Born Shawn Corey Carter, Jay-Z has earned the most albums by a solo artist to have reached the top spot of the Billboard 200 chart. He is also the first rapper to have made it to the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He paid his dues to make it big in the music industry and he has even sold records from his car! His debut album earned him a distribution deal and it ended up reaching the 23rd spot on the Billboard 200. Oh, did we mention he is the husband of Beyoncé herself?

Paul McCartney
Hold up, don’t forget to talk a ‘sir’ before his name! He began his musical career as a member of the Beatles. We will never forget his legendary violin bass and harmonization with John Lennon! His notable songwriting efforts for the band include “Hey Jude”, “Paperback Writer”, and “Yesterday”. Before the band broke up, he pushed for the release of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band first. Fans were heartbroken when they learned of the disbandment, but it also marked the beginning of his solo career. He has since become one of the richest musicians in history. He is actually a billionaire by now!
