They also make money from music licensing and high profile endorsement deals. Rae Sremmurd makes approximately $11,000 per video published to their Youtube channel, which grosses an overall total of $6.9 million dollars each year.

Introduction

Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi, two brothers, have made a name for themselves in the music industry and landed on the top of music charts. In 2015, the group released their first album, SremmLife, which became certified platinum through the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

In late 2016, Rae Sremmurd debuted their second album, SremmLife 2. Rae Sremmurd released their third album SR3MM in May 2018. The group created their own record label, SremmLife Crew Records in 2016.

Their best-known song is “Black Beatles”, which is on the album SremmLife 2. “Black Beatles” peaked on the United States Billboard Hot 100 at number one and made the charts internationally within the top ten of several different countries. Rae Sremmurd has also had several other singles certified as platinum including “No Type”, “No Flex Zone”, and “Swang.”

Early Life

Swae Lee (26) and Slim Jxmmi (28), also known as Khalif Brown and Aaquil Brown, are from Tupelo, Mississippi. The brothers were raised by a single mother, as their father abandoned the family when they were young.

Before they were signed to a label, the brothers performed at parties and venues within the Tupelo, Mississippi area. After performing at parties and venues for several years, they developed their first music group called “Dem Outta State Boyz.”

They started uploading videos onto online platforms such as Youtube and Soundcloud in order to attract fans and gain recognition. After performing as a group, the brothers moved to Atlanta, Georgia to work with the record producer Mike WiLL Made It.

The brothers signed a contract with Mike WiLL Made It join his record label EarDrummers Entertainment. This is when they became known as Rae Sremmurd, which is Ear Drummers spelled backward.

Personal life

Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi spent the majority of their childhood moving around due to their mother’s job in the Army. They lived in California, Maryland, Texas, and finally settled in Tupelo, Mississippi.

When the brothers were very young, their father abandoned them and forced their mother to become a single parent. Both Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi currently reside in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

They continue to be signed to Mike WiLL Made Its record label EarDrummers Entertainment. The brothers frequently collaborate with other musicians, most notably Gucci Mane who they wrote and performed their hit track “Black Beatles.”

The brothers also write lyrics for other artists across genres including Beyonce, who they wrote the hook and chorus for her song “Formation.” They maintain a steady and close relationship with their mother.

Career

These boys were playing under the name Dem Outta State Boyz, but they soon decided that they should move to Atlanta to jump-start their career.

There are many major hip hop artists in Atlanta, and they found a producer who was willing to help them.

They started with producer Mike Will Made It, and they signed their first deal with Ear Drummers Entertainment.

They chose their name based on the contract that they signed as a way to honor the people who gave them a chance.

Rae Sremmurd net worth reached $6,000,000. by 2019.

The boys chose to name their band Rae Sremmurd by spelling the name of their record label backward. That name has stuck all these years later, and they started work with the label on their first two albums.

The first two albums that they made with the label were not marketed very well, and they were not as successful as the boys thought they could be. Because of this, they needed to make a change.

Their first hit single was called “No Flex Zone.” It was released in 2014, and it reached 35 on the Billboard Hot 100.

That alone was enough to get people to pay attention, and they followed that up with the single called “No Type.” “No Type” went to 16 on the Billboard Hot 100, and it allowed them to the popularity they needed to release Sremmlife and Sremmlife 2 through Ear Drummers.

They also released Balck Beatles in 2015 while remaining with their original label. They have taken pride in honoring the label that gave them a chance, and they are currently working on new music while playing live dates to support their previous albums.
