Albert King – Estimated $2 Million

Another blues legend who left his mark on the industry was Albert King. BB King, Albert King, and Freddie King are often called the “Kings of Blues”, and not because of their last names! Albert became a star overnight after the release of his album Born Under A Bad Sign. 

King represented the working-class African Americans of his time, and he gained huge recognition and an estimated $2 million net worth. During his career, he released 16 studio albums, with the last one being in 1991 and titled Red House. In 1992, King suffered a heart attack and passed away, sadly. He was 69.
