He just doesn't advertise it like he used too back in the day and so he shouldn't. If anyone has learnt the lesson of helping ungrateful people, it's hammer!

      Notice that when you are big and live extravagantly, you hear people owing taxes. There's no way MC Hammer is only worth 1.4 mil. But the public knowing that keeps the government looking away. Smartest thing he ever did was changing the facade. The man is quietly rich, which means he learned to turn down the lights.

    I remember when he purchased a 6 million doller home & at the time that was a big deal. Hammer was one of the first entertainers to have a HUGE entourage who performed with him every show that he took care of on & off the stage financially including his brother. When the money was gone they all bounced. Them OAKTOWN 357 girls were the 💩 back then.

    How lucky you are to live such a comfortable life🙂🙂 I am 20 years old. I have been living a very sad life since I was born😔 I've never really seen the food here. Thea has never been in such a comfortable vehicle. Since my father died, I was entrusted with the responsibility of the family. The money I earn from my job is not enough for my mother and me to live on. We are both hungry most of the day. Sometimes we go hungry for two days straight🥺 Our house is getting wet due to the prevailing rains these days. We are living a very difficult life. I hope someone who sees this will help us.

    Thank you for the info. In my books, he is still THE HAMMER! I'm yet to find one musician who can perform an intricate dance move and rap at the top of their voices like THE HAMMER.
    He may have blown out all his millions but by God was successful! And how
    do we measure a man's success? I think he ticked all the boxes in the criteria;-
    1. He lived a life many of us can only dream of - larger than life.
    2. He is the ARCHITECT of the rap dance Revolution.
    3. A collosal entourage - he paid them well. People who worked for him were comfortable - contrast that conglomerates that pay their workers peanuts and keep the rest for themselves.
    4. He had a massive financial free-fall (Tom Petty - RIP) and bounced right back - keeping afloat, it could have been worse; doing some menial jobs ..
    5. He still makes the world a happy place - we are still dancing to his music
    My bucket list includes having a signed photo of him on stage ... True genius! My ICON!
