How much do rappers charge to perform?

The amount that rappers charge to perform varies greatly depending on a number of factors, including the artist's popularity, the size of the venue, the location of the event, and the date and time of the performance. In general, popular rappers like Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Eminem can command fees in the millions of dollars for a single performance. For example, Jay-Z reportedly earned $2 million for a performance in Dubai in 2013, while Kanye West reportedly earned $3 million for a performance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2014. Less popular rappers may charge anywhere from a few thousand dollars to a few hundred thousand dollars for a performance.

Rappers also typically charge more for performances that take place during peak concert season (summer) or on weekends. Additionally, performances that take place in larger cities or more popular venues tend to command higher fees.

It is also important to note that rappers are not the only ones who receive compensation for a performance. The promoter or organizer of the event will also take a cut of the proceeds, as well as any supporting acts that may be performing.

Overall, the cost of a rap performance can vary greatly, but it is generally safe to say that popular rappers can command fees in the millions of dollars for a single performance.
