Chuck Berry – $10 million

There is a reason Chuck Berry has become known as the “Father of Rock ‘N’ Roll.” He definitely changed the game by readapting R&B to make rock and roll. His guitar solos and flashy gimmicks served as the basis of this musical genre, after all. He was born in St. Louis and took up music when he was still young. He started to play with a band called The Johnnie Johnson Trio until he met Muddy Waters and got his big break. Thanks to his new friend, he released “Ida Red.” It went on to sell more than a million copies!
