Overview

Ludacris, also known as Christopher Brian Bridges, is an American rapper who founded the Disturbing tha Peace record label.

The rapper is also an actor and philanthropist, and he has taken his career to so many levels.

His net worth of $25 million was updated as of 2020, and this recent update places him among the top richest rappers on the globe.


NET WORTH:$25 MILLION
AGE:42
DATE OF BIRTH:11 SEPTEMBER 1997
NATIONALITY:AMERICAN
PROFESSION:ACTOR, RAPPER
SOURCE OF WEALTH:ACTING AND MUSIC

Early Life

On the 11th of September, 1977, Ludacris was born in Champaign, Illinois, and he was an only child. His parents were Roberta Shields and Wayne Brian Bridges who moved to Chicago later on in their lives.

All through his early years, his parents were fond of moving from one city to the other, and this made him change school several times.

He schooled at Emerson Middle School and Oak Park & River Forest High School, both in Oak Park. When he was 9 years old, Ludacris began to write rap songs, and when he was twelve, he finally joined an amateur rap group.

In 1995, Ludacris graduated from Banneker High School, Atlanta, Georgia. After 3 years, he attended Georgia State University to study Music Management—this allowed him to learn the art of music more effectively. 


Career

The rapper’s career began when he was an intern at Hot 97.5 radio station in Atlanta, Georgia. This allowed him to become a DJ, and he was lucrative enough to collaborate with Timbaland. He sang ‘Phat Rabbit’ with the co-singer, and he knew that he would be able to record his songs.

Soon enough, Ludacris released ‘Inconegro’, his first album, but it didn’t seem so fruitful. 

However, he pushed harder and continued to record more albums. Later on, he moved to Def Jam South, another record label that transformed Inconegro to Back For The First Time in 2000. This was a breakout album that made it to number four on the Billboard top 200. 

In 2001, Ludacris released his album, Word of Mouf, and one of his singles was a nomination at the Grammy’s. Also, in 2003, he featured guest appearances in his album Chicken-n-Beer such as Snoop Dogg, Lil’Flip, Shawnna, Chingy, 8Ball & MJG and Playaz Circle.

Into 2008 and beyond, Ludacris began to feature stars like Chris Brown, T-Pain, Rick Ross, Jay-Z, Common, Lil Wayne, Nas, The Game and T.I in his albums. 

As an actor, Ludacris has starred in several roles in major films and has worked with top actors in America. He starred in six parts of the Fast & Furious film series that also featured Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson, and others.

In 2007, the producers of American Gangster offered Ludacris a role, but he rejected this offer because he needed to focus on his album, Release Therapy. The rapper told Billboard magazine that he won a Grammy for the same album he needed to complete and didn’t regret his action. 

Exploring his entrepreneurial capabilities, Ludacris established a restaurant at Atlanta’s Hartsfield- Jackson International Airport called “Chicken-n-Beer”. The restaurant name was an inspiration for his third album, Chicken-n- Beer.
