Herbert Anthony Stevens IV Wiki Biography
Born Herbert Anthony Stevens IV on the 23rd February 1987 in Los Angeles, California USA, Ab-Soul is a rapper, record producer, best known to the world for his albums “Longterm Mentality”, “Control System”, and others, while he has also earned a great deal of popularity and money as a part of the hip-hop supergroup Black Hippy, alongside Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock and Schoolboy Q.
Have you ever wondered how rich Ab-Soul is, as of late 2017? According to authoritative sources, it has been estimated that Ab-Soul’s wealth is as high as $800,000, earned through his successful career, active since 2002.
Although born in the USA, he spent his early years in Germany, as a result of his father’s military service. However, his parents divorced, and he and his mother returned to the USA, settling in Carson, California. Growing up, he was into video games, basketball and music, and especially interested in works of Michael Jackson.
In his tenth year of life, Ab-Soul was diagnosed with Stevens-Johnson syndrome which caused his lips to become darker, and his sight was hindered. Two years later, he started rapping and writing music, but it wasn’t after high school that he started taking music more seriously. Be that as it may, he enrolled at a community college, but soon after started pursuing a career as a rapper full-time, so dropping out of studies after just one semester.
As early as 2002, Ab-Soul had his first song recorded, and in 2005 he signed a contract with StreetBeat Entertainment. However, he used this just for learning as he soon connected with rapper Punch, President and Chairman of the record label Top Dawg Entertainment, and once his contract with StreetBeat Entertainment expired, he signed with Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE). His next move was becoming more involved in the label, collaborating with several rappers, including Jay Rock, and in 2009 released his first mixtape “Longterm”, followed by the second part in 2010, entitled “Longterm 2: Lifestyles of the Broke and Almost Famous”.
Gradually Ab-Soul’s name became more popular on the rap scene, and after releasing a couple of singles, including “Nothin’ New”, and “Gone Insane”, his first full-length album was ready, entitled “Longterm Mentality”, and was released on the 5th April 2011, peaking at No. 73 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, while it also entered the US Billboard 200 chart, reaching No. 189, boosting his net worth.
He then ventured on a tour, which only increased his net worth, but soon returned to the studio to work on his next full-length album, which came out in May 2012 under the title “Control System”, and was a major improvement on his debut album, as his second release reached the top 10 on the US Rap chart, then peaked at No. 12 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop chart, and reached No. 91 on the US Billboard 200 chart,. He continued to improve year after year, reaching out to more people, which resulted in better charting of his next album, “These Days” (2014), which peaked at No.
2 on the US Rap, and US R&B/Hip-Hop chart, while it also landed at the No. 11 on the US Billboard 200 chart, which increased his net worth by a large margin.
Ab-Soul, now an accomplished musician, ventured on a tour in support of the 2014 album, which comprised of 40 concerts across North America, then started working on his next album – “Do What Though Wilt.” – which came out in December 2016. The album reached No. 6 on the US Rap, and US Rap/Hip-Hop chart, while it also found its place on the US Billboard 200 chart, peaking at No. 34.
Regarding his personal life, he has been in a relationship with Yaris Sanchez since 2013. Previously, he was in a relationship with Alori Joh, who committed suicide in February 2012. This impacted on the recording of his album “Control System” enough that the back cover had imprinted “Dedicated to the beautiful soul of Loriana Angel Johnson aka Alori Joh”.
