Travis Porter Net Worth $2 Million
Stepbrothers Lakeem “Ali” Mattox, Donquez “Quez” Woods and friend Harold “Strap” Duncan grew up together in Decatur, Georgia and bonded through music. In 2006 they decided to take their passion in hip hop seriously, and formed a group called Hard Hitters. The trio started by writing music and producing mixtapes, and slowly gained popularity on the internet.
From the world wide web, their success continued and eventually the trio began performing around United States. Slowly their career and net worth started to grow.
In 2008, the Hard Hitters decided to change their group’s name to Travis Porter, which they believed to be more saleable. From the United States, the trio later made their way to the international stage, performing in Kaiserslautern and Bamberg, Germany. Even though Travis Porter is an unsigned artist, that didn’t stop them from releasing hit songs like “Uh Huh”, “Black Boy White Boy” and “Go Shorty Go” that tremendously increased their net worth.
After working with great artists in the hip hop world, and performing in various concerts and shows, finally in 2010 Travis Porter was noticed by recording company Jive Records. In December of the same year, they released their debut single “Make it Rain” and in February 2011 their second one “Bring it Back”. However, even though both songs became huge hits on the airwaves, unfortunately Jive Records was dissolved by its mother company RCA Music Group and the trio’s album was put on hold.
Finally, in 2012 Travis Porter officially released their first album “From Day 1” under RCA Records and their own Porter House Music record label. The album became a huge hit not just among fans but even scored high on various music charts in the United States. The success of their first album brought more fame and wealth to the trio.
After their first album, Travis Porter still continued to release various mixtapes. Some of their most recent releases include “Mr. Porter’, “Music Money Magnums 2”, “3 Live Krew” and “285”, all of which have contributed to their net worth.
Travis Porter are still an active hit maker on the music scene, and still maintain their presence in the online world with their YouTube channel reaching over 130 million views. Another album is set to be released by the group in 2016, so there is some confidence that their net worth will continue to rise.
