DJ Hurricane: The Beastie Boys’ DJ’s Net Worth

If you’ve ever been to a house party, then you know that a DJ can make or break the evening. The right music can get everyone dancing, while bad songs will have everyone going home early. But how much money do these DJs really make? In this article, we’ll explore the net worth of some famous DJs and see if they’re really worth all that money!

The Beastie Boys

The Beastie Boys are a hip hop group that has had multiple platinum albums, won multiple Grammy Awards and been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

The band formed in 1981 when Adam Yauch (MCA) met Mike Diamond (Mike D), who was DJing at his birthday party. They added Adam Horovitz (Ad-Rock) as their third member and released their debut single “Cooky Puss” in 1982 on indie label Rat Cage Records before signing with Def Jam Recordings later that year. Their first album Licensed to Ill was released in 1986; it went quadruple platinum after being certified by RIAA as having sold 8 million copies worldwide – making it one of only seven albums ever to achieve this feat at the time. Their second album Paul’s Boutique followed suit by reaching number 1 on Billboard 200 Chart where it stayed for over five weeks before dropping down the charts eventually going double platinum after selling over 2 million copies worldwide since its release date back then until now too!

DJ Jazzy Jeff

Jazzy Jeff is a hip-hop DJ who has been a member of the group DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince since 1986. He won three Grammy Awards and has been nominated for a Tony Award as well.

Jeffrey Townes was born on October 15, 1965 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to mother Janice Johnson and father Charles Townes (who won a Nobel Prize in Physics). He attended high school at Overbrook High School before moving on to Temple University where he studied communications while working as an intern at NBC News Radio and WCAU-TV’s local news program “Action News Weekend Edition.”

In 1984 he began working as an intern at WRKS 98 FM (then called KISS FM) under his mentor Tee Scott; during this time he met Will Smith who had just graduated from high school himself–they became friends after bonding over their love for music and decided to form a rap duo together under the name DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince.

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five were the first hip-hop group to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as well as being the first hip-hop group to be nominated for a Grammy. They released their debut album in 1980, which included songs like “Superrappin'” and “The Message.”

DJs are not just for parties and weddings anymore. They’re also instrumental in creating new genres, helping artists get their music out there, and making sure that everyone’s listening to the same thing at once. A good DJ can help sell millions of albums by making sure listeners hear the same thing at once–and if you’re famous enough, you might even be able to make millions off your own albums as well (or maybe even just one).

Conclusion

The Beastie Boys were one of the most influential hip hop groups of all time. They helped bring the genre to mainstream America and inspired many other rappers. Their music still resonates with people today, even though they broke up over 20 years ago. DJ Hurricane was a member of this legendary group for a short period before moving on to other projects like his solo album “The Ride” which came out in 2001 and featured appearances by Busta Rhymes, Rahzel and Q-Tip among others.
