Billy Squier is an American rock musician, singer, and songwriter who has a net worth of $80 million. Billy Squier is best known for the 1981 single "The Stroke," which was ranked #59 on VH1's list of the "100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs." Arguably more important to his net worth, Billy is considered one of, if not THE, most sampled artists in hip-hop history. His 1981 song "The Stroke" was sampled for Eminem's song "Berserk" and his 1980 song "The Big Beat" has been sampled dozens of times, notably for Jay-Z's "99 Problems." Billy reportedly demands the as much as 75% of all royalties generated by the sample song and he has undoubtedly earned tens of millions of dollars in royalties over the years through these arrangements. His song catalog is easily worth $50 million.

Billy has released the studio albums "The Tale of the Tape" (1980), "Don't Say No" (1981), "Emotions in Motion" (1982), "Signs of Life" (1984), "Enough Is Enough" (1986), "Hear & Now" (1989), "Creatures of Habit" (1991), "Tell the Truth" (1993), and "Happy Blue" (1998), and three of those albums were certified Platinum or higher in the U.S. Squier is known for singles such as "Lonely Is the Night," "My Kinda Lover," "Everybody Wants You," and "Rock Me Tonite," and both "Everybody Wants You" and "Rock Me Tonite" reached #1 on the "Billboard" Mainstream Rock chart.

Early Life

Billy Squier was born William Haislip Squier on May 12, 1950, in Wellesley, Massachusetts. Billy graduated from Wellesley High School in 1968, and during his youth, he learned how to play guitar and piano. He didn't become seriously interested in music until he discovered John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers (when Eric Clapton was in the band). Squier formed the band the Reltneys at the age of 14, and he first performed publicly in 1968 at the Boston nightclub the Psychedelic Supermarket, where he once saw Eric Clapton play with the band Cream. After deciding to take music more seriously, Billy and a friend from school started the band Magic Terry & the Universe in New York. In 1971, Squier briefly studied at Boston's Berklee College of Music. He initially wanted to pursue a teaching career, but he went back to New York to play with a pop group called the Sidewinders instead.

Career

In the mid-1970s, Billy signed a record deal while he was a member of the band Piper, and the group released the studio albums "Piper" and "Can't Wait." "Circus" magazine called the band's self-titled album "the greatest debut album ever produced by a US rock band." Piper opened for Kiss during the band's 1977 tour. After Piper split up, Squier signed with Capitol Records as a solo artist in 1979. He released his debut solo album, "The Tale of the Tape," in May 1980, and it reached #169 on the "Billboard" 200 chart. Billy's follow-up, 1981's "Don't Say No," reached #5 on the "Billboard" 200 chart and #4 on Canada's "RPM" chart, and it was certified 3× Platinum in the U.S. and Platinum in Canada. The album featured the singles "The Stroke," "In the Dark," "Lonely Is the Night," and "My Kinda Lover," and "The Stroke" and "In the Dark" were both top 10 hits on the "Billboard" Mainstream Rock chart. Squier's third solo album, "Emotions in Motion," was released in 1982, and it reached #5 on the "Billboard" 200 chart and #8 on Canada's "RPM" chart. The album went 2× Platinum in the U.S. and Platinum in Canada, and the single "Everybody Wants You" topped the "Billboard" Mainstream Rock chart. Next, he released the 1984 album "Signs of Life," which peaked at #11 on the "Billboard" 200 chart and was certified Platinum in the U.S. and Gold in Canada. The album included the singles "Rock Me Tonite," "All Night Long," "Can't Get Next to You," and "Eye on You," and "Rock Me Tonite" reached #1 on the "Billboard" Mainstream Rock chart.

In 1985, Squier's song "Shake Down" was featured on the Grammy-nominated soundtrack for "St. Elmo's Fire." The following year, he released the album "Enough Is Enough," which reached #61 on the "Billboard" 200 chart. Freddie Mercury performed backing vocals on the single "Love Is the Hero," and he co-wrote the track "Lady With a Tenor Sax." Billy's 1989 album "Hear & Now" peaked at #64 on the "Billboard" 200 chart, and 1991's "Creatures of Habit" reached #117 on that chart. "Don't Say You Love Me" from " Hear & Now" and "She Goes Down" from "Creatures of Habit" both reached #4 on the "Billboard" Mainstream Rock chart.

After releasing 1993's "Tell the Truth," Squier left Capitol Records. His ninth solo album, "Happy Blue," was released on the independent label J-Bird Records, in 1998. As of this writing, Billy has not released another album since "Happy Blue," but in February 2023, he shared a clip of a new song titled "Molly," and the full track was later released under the title "Harder On A Woman." IMDb lists more than 100 soundtrack credits for Squier, including "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" (1982), "Billy Madison" (1995), "Scary Movie" (2000), "Blades of Glory" (2006), "Let's Go to Prison" (2006), "Couples Retreat" (2009), "ParaNorman" (2012), "We're the Millers" (2013), and "Girls Trip" (2017).

Hip Hop Sampling

Perhaps most importantly to his net worth, Billy Squier is one of the most-sampled musicians by hip-hop artists. Rick Rubin sampled his song "The Big Beat" for Jay-Z's "99 Problems" and "The Stroke" for Eminem's song "Berzerk."

Run DMC sampled "The Big Beat" for 1983's "Here We Go (Live at the Funhouse)."

Mickey Avalon sampled "The Stroke" for his 2009 song "Stroke Me." He would later reveal that Billy requested and received 75% of the song's royalties. Below is a list of "The Big Beat" sample tracks:

Personal Life

Billy married professional soccer player Nicole Schoen in 2002. In a 2000 "New York Post" article, Squier spoke about his volunteer work with the Central Park Conservancy, stating, "I much prefer the company of nature to the poison of the business community. When money enters the aesthetic, it changes the perspective on it all." In 2009, Billy told the Michigan publication "Northern Express," "I am a big supporter of conservancy efforts and I volunteer for the Central Park Conservancy where I am responsible for the care of 20 acres of the park. He added, "I love landscaping and gardening, so this has been very rewarding. I think as a performer, or for that matter regardless of your profession, it is important to discover things outside of your profession that help you learn about who you are as a person."

Bono Apartment Battle

For over 30 years Billy has lived in an ultra-exclusive New York City building called the San Remo. Over the years celebrity residents have included Bono, Steve Martin, Steve Jobs, Steven Spielberg and Demi Moore and Bruce Willis. In 2015, Demi listed her 7,000 square foot South Tower penthouse for $75 million. She and Bruce bought the unit in 1990 when they were married, she retained it in the divorce. She ultimately accepted $45 million in 2017.

Bono bought his unit from Steve Jobs in 2003 for $14.5 million. Soon after moving in, Bono noticed that smoke from the lower unit fireplaces was billowing into his penthouse. Of the 135 units in the San Remo, only 40 have fireplaces. After Bono complained, the building's co-op ordered fireplace-owning residents to stop using them. Billy was one of those fireplace owners. He was livid to learn that he would no longer be able to use his fireplace. He fought the co-op and Bono vigorously, but ultimately lost.

If Billy misses his fireplace, he also owns a 1-acre property in upscale Bridgehampton on Long Island.

Award Nominations

In 1986, Squier earned a Grammy nomination for Best Album of Original Score Written for a Motion Picture or Television for the "St. Elmo's Fire" soundtrack.

Jeff Hanneman was an American musician who had a net worth of $10 million at the time of his death. Jeff Hanneman is best known as a founding member and guitarist of the thrash metal band Slayer. He also composed both music and lyrics for each of the band's albums until his passing in 2013, writing such fan-favorite tracks as "Angel of Death," "Raining Blood," "War Ensemble," and "Seasons in the Abyss." Considered one of the greatest heavy metal guitarists of all time, Hanneman had his own signature guitar created by ESP Guitars.

Early Life

Jeff Hanneman was born on January 31, 1964 in Long Beach, California into a military family. His father had fought in Normandy during World War II, and his brothers were soldiers in Vietnam. This made Hanneman incredibly interested in warfare and military history. Meanwhile, he was introduced to heavy metal music through his older sister Mary, who was listening to Black Sabbath when he was visiting her house.

Slayer

While working as a telemarketer in 1981, Hanneman met fellow guitarist Kerry King at an audition for a southern rock band called Ledger. They subsequently started jamming together. Hanneman and King – along with bassist Tom Araya and neighborhood drummer Dave Lombardo – went on to form Slayer. Originally, the band played covers of metal songs, and brandished an image characterized by Satanic themes. After record executive Brian Slagel saw Slayer perform Iron Maiden's "Phantom of the Opera," he signed the band to his label Metal Blade. Slayer went on to release its debut studio album, "Show No Mercy," in late 1983. Although it was criticized for its low-quality production, the album became Metal Blade's bestselling release. Slayer subsequently released the EP "Haunting the Chapel" and the live album "Live Undead" in 1984. Those were followed by the studio album "Hell Awaits" in 1985. The year after that, Slayer released "Reign in Blood," which helped the band reach a more mainstream audience. Moreover, the album was highly influential in defining the thrash metal sound of the latter half of the 1980s. Slayer released its fourth studio album, "South of Heaven," in 1988.

Slayer began the 1990s with the album "Seasons in the Abyss." Next came the double live album "Decade of Aggression," released in 1991. Although heavy metal was falling out of favor during the decade, Slayer fared better than most bands of its ilk, releasing the albums "Divine Intervention," "Undisputed Attitude," and "Diabolus in Musica." The band's first album of the new millennium, "God Hates Us All," came out on September 11, 2001; it reached number 28 on the Billboard 200. Slayer's next release wasn't until 2006, with the limited-release EP "Eternal Pyre." Later that year, the band released its tenth studio album, "Christ Illusion," which debuted at number five on the Billboard 200. The album's songs "Eyes of the Insane" and "Final Six" went on to win Grammy Awards. Slayer next released "World Painted Blood" in 2009. The band's final album was 2015's "Repentless," the only one recorded without Hanneman, who had passed away two years earlier. Slayer took a farewell tour from May 2018 to November 2019, and then disbanded.

Pap Smear

Beyond Slayer, Hanneman played briefly with a hardcore punk band in 1984 called Pap Smear. He was joined by Rocky George, Joey Fuchs, and his Slayer bandmate Dave Lombardo. Although the band had many tracks and was prepared to start recording, Hanneman chose to cease Pap Smear after Slayer producer Rick Rubin warned him that the project could potentially result in the breakup of Slayer.

Style and Influences

Widely considered one of the greatest heavy metal guitarists of all time, Hanneman was known for his chaotic guitar solos and riffs, especially the ones he did with King. On the album "South of Heaven," he employed tremolo picking and down-picked notes. Hanneman's influences included such hard rock and heavy metal bands as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Led Zeppelin, and Black Sabbath, as well as such hardcore punk groups as Wasted Youth, Black Flag, and Dead Kennedys.

Nazism Controversy

Hanneman generated controversy for his interest in Nazi Germany and German military history. He developed this interest in large part because of his World War II veteran father, who gave him various medals as a child, including some taken from a dead German soldier. Hanneman's lyrics for the infamous track "Angel of Death" prompted many to accuse Slayer of being Nazi sympathizers. However, the band repeatedly denied any connection to or embrace of Nazism.

Personal Life

In 1989, Hanneman married his wife Kathryn, whom he had first met during a Slayer show in Buena Park, California in 1983. Unlike the other members of his band, he had a highly reserved personality when he wasn't performing, and rarely socialized or gave interviews.

In early 2011, Hanneman contracted a flesh-eating disease on one of his arms. It ended up getting so bad that doctors considered amputation, and at one point thought he might not survive. Although Hanneman did make it, the effects of the disease hampered his ability to play guitar, and he became severely depressed.

Death

Hanneman passed away from liver failure in early May of 2013. The official cause of death was listed as alcohol-related cirrhosis.

Shepherd told "Rolling Stone" magazine, "Years ago I put that car in permanent storage and some time ago, I made the decision to permanently cover the flag on my car because it was completely against my values and offensive to the African American community which created the music I love so much and I apologize to anyone that I have unintentionally hurt because of it. I want to make something very clear and unequivocal; I condemn and stand in complete opposition to all forms of racism and oppression and always have." In 2022, Kenny released his 10th studio album, "Trouble Is… 25," a re-recording of 1997's "Trouble Is…" that includes a cover of the 1965 Bob Dylan song "Ballad of a Thin Man."

The album was certified Platinum in four countries, and the singles "Burden in My Hand" and "Blow Up the Outside World" topped the Mainstream Rock chart.

Personal Life

In 2021, Kim spoke to "Kerrang!" about attending the unveiling of a statue of his late friend/bandmate Chris Cornell at Seattle's Museum of Pop Culture, stating, "It was a lot of things. It was very surreal, for starters, but obviously a source of great pride to be able to honour our brother. It was awkward too, because there was a certain aspect of it that was a show, as it was a public event." Thayil added, "I miss his company and presence. I miss the collaborative inspiration he brought, too, and the team and family that we built together over the years."

Awards and Nominations

Soundgarden earned nine Grammy nominations between 1990 and 2011, winning Best Metal Performance for  "Spoonman" and Best Hard Rock Performance for "Black Hole Sun" in 1994.

Michael Hutchence was an Australian musician and actor who had a net worth of $1 million at the time of his death.

Michael Hutchence's wealth and estate has been a mystery in the decades after his death. Despite earning an estimated $60 million during his career (before taxes), Michael died with just $40,000 in his bank account. His total assets after being liquidated amounted to $700,000 after liabilities were subtracted. All of this remaining money was eaten up by lawyers and other various fees after his death.

What's shocking is that by most reasonable accounts, Michael should have had a minimum of $20 million worth of real estate, cash and investments. Yet he somehow died almost penniless.

In 2005, it was revealed that Michael's assets were being held by a complex series of trusts with a vague ownership structure. The trusts do not benefit Michael's parents or daughter.

Michael Hutchence was best known as the co-founder and lead singer and lyricist of the Australian rock band INXS. INXS' singles include "The One Thing", "Don't Change", "Original Sin", "I Send a Message", "What You Need", "New Sensation", and "Suicide Blonde". INXS was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2001. The band won six Australian Recording Industry Association award and has sold nearly 40 million record worldwide to date.

Michael was also a member of the short-lived band Max Q, and recorded some work as a solo artist. In late 1997, Hutchence was found dead in his Sydney hotel room from suicide.

Early Life and Education

Michael Hutchence was born on January 22, 1960 in Crows Nest, New South Wales, Australia to makeup artist Patricia Glassop and businessman Kelland Hutchence. He has a half-sister named Tina and a younger brother named Rhett. Due to the business interests of Hutchence's father, the family moved to Brisbane and later to Hong Kong. In the latter city, Hutchence went to Glenealy Junior School, Beacon Hill School, and King George V School. After returning to Sydney in 1972, he attended Davidson High School, where he met and befriended Andrew Farriss. The boys spent much of their time playing music together, with Hutchence eventually joining his friend's band Doctor Dolphin. When Hutchence was 15, his parents separated, and he subsequently lived with his mother and half-sister in California for a short time before returning to Sydney.

INXS

In 1977, Hutchence joined a new band called the Farriss Brothers, consisting of Andrew, Tim, and Jon Farriss, Garry Beers, and Kirk Pengilly. The group regularly supported the rock band Midnight Oil on the pub rock circuit. In 1979, the Farriss Brothers were renamed INXS. The following year, INXS released its self-titled debut album. Following that were 1981's "Underneath the Colours" and 1982's "Shabooh Shoobah." With its fourth studio album, 1984's "The Swing," INXS achieved its first number-one charting album in Australia. Three more consecutive number-ones followed: 1985's "Listen Like Thieves," 1987's "Kick," and 1990's "X." Particularly successful internationally was "Kick," which peaked at number three in the US and number nine in the UK; it also spawned the hit singles "New Sensation," "Never Tear Us Apart," "Devil Inside," and "Need You Tonight."

In 1992, INXS went in a different musical direction with the album "Welcome to Wherever You Are," which features sitars and a 60-piece orchestra. Notably, it was the first album by an Australian musical act to debut at number one in the UK since AC/DC's "Back in Black" in 1980. However, the album performed less well in other countries, and marked the beginning of INXS's commercial decline. Next came "Full Moon, Dirty Hearts," which was released in 1993. After a period of inactivity, INXS returned in 1997 with the album "Elegantly Wasted," the final one to include Hutchence before his death later in the year.

Max Q

During the peak of INXS's success, Hutchence formed the side project Max Q with Ollie Olsen. The two were joined by key members of Melbourne's post-punk scene, including Michael Sheridan and John Murphy. In 1989, Max Q released its only album, which was self-titled. The album contained the songs "Way of the World" and "Sometimes," both minor hits in Australia. Max Q ended up disbanding in 1990.

Solo Career

As a solo artist, Hutchence began work on a studio album in 1995. The self-titled album wasn't released until 1999, two years after his death. It peaked at number three on the Australian Albums chart.

Acting

In addition to his music, Hutchence acted in some films. He starred in the 1986 Australian film "Dogs in Space" as the drug-addled frontman of a fictional band, and contributed four songs to the film's soundtrack. The year after that, Hutchence had a brief part in the supernatural horror film "The Lost Boys." In 1990, he portrayed Romantic poet Percy Shelley in Roger Corman's "Frankenstein Unbound," based on the novel by Brian Aldiss.

Personal Life and Death

Hutchence was infamous for his many public fights and various romantic relationships. He dated such celebrities as Kylie Minogue, Belinda Carlisle, Kym Wilson, and Helene Christensen. In the mid-1990s, Hutchence began a relationship with British television presenter Paula Yates, who was then married to singer-songwriter Bob Geldorf. The affair became a major subject in the tabloids, eventually leading to Geldorf's highly publicized separation from Yates in 1995 and their ensuing custody battle over their daughters. In the summer of 1996, Hutchence had a daughter with Yates.

While on tour in late 1997 with INXS, Hutchence was found dead in his hotel room in Sydney. Over the previous days, he had been distraught about not being able to see his daughter, as the mother, Paula Yates, was entangled in a custody battle with Bob Geldorf over her other daughters and could not travel to Australia. In early 1998, an autopsy and coronial inquest revealed that Hutchence had died by suicide by hanging; he was also under the influence of alcohol and other substances.

Legacy

After Hutchence's passing, INXS continued recording and performing until 2012.

Hutchence has been the subject of a few biographical works, including the 2000 book "Just a Man: The Real Michael Hutchence," penned by his mother and half-sister, and the documentary films "Michael Hutchence: The Last Rockstar" and "Mystify: Michael Hutchence," released in 2017 and 2019, respectively.

The Kinks achieved significant success thanks to well-known hits such as "You Really Got Me," "All Day and All of the Night," "Waterloo Sunset," and "Lola." Their influence in shaping the rock genre was significant and enduring. Although the exact number of albums sold is difficult to ascertain, to date they have reportedly sold over 50 million records worldwide. Their catalog includes more than 20 studio albums. In 1990, The Kinks were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

As the primary songwriter for The Kinks, Davies became known for his distinctive lyricism, often portraying British life with a mix of wit, nostalgia, and social commentary. The band achieved international fame with a string of successful albums and singles throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Their notable body of work includes "The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society" (1968), often cited as one of the most influential albums in rock history. Despite occasional tensions within the band, particularly between the Davies brothers, The Kinks remained an active and influential presence in rock music until their disbandment in 1996.

Early Life

Ray Davies was born June 21, 1944 in Fortis Green, London, England. He was the seventh of eight children born to Fred and Annie Davies, including six older sisters and younger brother Dave Davies.

Ray was an art student at Hornsey College of Art in London in 1962–1963, and in late 1962 he became increasingly interested in music. He played with a number of groups before forming The Kinks with his younger brother Dave.

The Kinks

After the Kinks landed a recording contract in early 1964, Ray emerged as the chief songwriter and leader of the band, especially after the band's breakthrough success with his song "You Really Got Me".

Ray led the Kinks through a period of musical experimentation between 1966 and 1975. Between 1976 and their break-up 20 years later, Davies and the group reverted to their earlier mainstream rock format and enjoyed a second peak of success, with other hit songs, like "Destroyer", "Come Dancing" and "Do It Again".

The Kinks disbanded in 1996.

Tfue is an American Twitch streamer and internet personality who has a net worth of $9 million. Tfue is the online handle of Turner Tenney, a professional esports player best known for playing competitive "Fortnite." Previously, he streamed such games as "Call of Duty," "H1Z1," and "Destiny" on Twitch, and uploaded videos to YouTube. In July 2019 Tfue surpassed Ninja in terms of hours viewed in the previous three months. Tfue had 30 million hours viewed in the period, which was 6 million more than viewers spent watching Ninja. In 2023, he left both platforms to focus exclusively on his esports career.

Early Life and Education

Turner Tenney was born on January 2, 1998 in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida as the third of four siblings. His siblings include Jack, who also became a popular online gamer. When Tenney was young, his parents divorced, and he was subsequently raised by his father Richard, who had his kids sell TV antennas at flea markets. Tenney attended middle school for a week, but left because he felt it "sucked." After that, he was homeschooled. Growing up, he was passionate about action sports, winning surfing contests and competing in downhill skateboarding. He also appeared in videos made by his brother Jack and Jack's group of friends.

Twitch

In 2014, Tenney launched his Twitch channel, Tfue. He became known on Twitch for streaming various battle royale games, including "Battle Royale," "H1Z1," and, especially, "Fortnite Battle Royale"; he also streamed "Call of Duty" and "Destiny." Tenney later joined the professional esports organization FaZe Clan. He faced many controversies over the years, and earned numerous bans. In May of 2018, Tenney received a 30-day ban for allegedly using the n-word on a stream, and the next month earned a permanent account ban on his Epic Games account for allegedly selling and buying Epic Games accounts. Shortly after that, he was banned from Twitch again, this time for two weeks. Tenney amassed over 11 million followers on Twitch before he retired from streaming in 2023.

YouTube

The same year he began streaming on Twitch, Tenney launched his Tfue YouTube channel. Featuring his many streams and vlogs, the channel racked up more than 11 million subscribers and over 1.5 billion total views. In June of 2023, following nearly two months of online inactivity, Tenney announced his departure from YouTube in a new video, in tandem with his retirement from Twitch and other streaming platforms.

FaZe Clan Lawsuits

In the spring of 2019, Tenney filed a lawsuit against the professional esports organization FaZe Clan, alleging that the group pressured him to live in one of its Los Angeles homes and engage in underage drinking and illegal gambling. Moreover, he claimed the organization only gave him 20% of his revenue from branded videos on social media, and half of his revenue from touring and other appearances. FaZe Clan responded by saying it didn't take any money from Tenney's tournament winnings, and took $60,000 from his brand videos. The group went on to claim it offered Tenney several improved contracts that he repeatedly rejected or ignored. That August, FaZe Clan filed a federal lawsuit in New York against Tenney, alleging that he had violated his contract by denigrating the organization and attempting to form a rival esports group. Further, FaZe Clan alleged that he had directly leaked confidential information to the media about his contract.

Tfue Studios

In 2020, the Tenney family began working to establish a centralized hub for video game streaming, action sports, classes, and other shenanigans where both Turner and Jack Tenney would create content. Using revenue sharing proceeds from Fortnite, Tfue purchased an old 16,000-square-foot warehouse in Indian Rocks Beach to renovate for the project. The concept is partly based on Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory, which features skate ramps, studio space, and various other eccentricities to create a fun and productive hub for creativity.

Personal Life

Tenney was previously in a relationship with Corinna Kopf, whom he began dating in 2018. After the two officially announced their romance online in 2019, they separated in the spring of 2021.

Tenney moved to New Jersey in 2019 with his gaming partner Cloakzy. He also owns a home in his hometown of Indian Rocks Beach, Florida.
