I was speaking to a producer/manager in Canada last week and he told me that Jazzy B's financial status totally changed after Romeo and he is sitting on millions since 2005.
Basically he said that the reason why there is more time in between Jazzy B's albums now and the reason why he has less live show's in North America is because he doesn't need the money anymore and is making music based on the love of it now.
I can't mention the exact figure, but he said that it's invested and him and his family don't have to worry about money for years to come!
It's no wonder he wears $400.00 True Religion jeans and drives a $100,000.00 Mercedes now, huh?
Well, good luck to Jazzy B and his family! He deserves every penny of what he made.

I am surprised because I didn't think that the bhangra industry make singers and producers millionaires that fast! I mean hundred thousands yes! But millions in less than a few years and after one hit album and a tour?

considering he's been active since 1993 and been such an influential figure towards thousands of asians who would pay top dollar to see his face, the amount of concerts and private events hes performed in aswell as all the highly rated albums hes released....considering all of that, im not bludy surprised hes living it large

jazzys probably one of the few that make millions fro music in the Bhangra industry...most singers would make f all...
Aman Hayer would be making a fair bit...considering how much he charges for 1 track...

Its not hard to believe considering he most probly used to do multiple shows on one day like angrej ali etc do now..
He charges over 5000+ so that 2/3 times a day times few days aweek.. makes sense.

I understand a million, but multi-millions???
The producer/manager told me that he is sitting on millions invested after Romeo (NOT BEFORE ROMEO) and that he doesn't need the money anymore.

multi-million is quite a possibility. Like someone said here he does multiple shows. And he's probably doing shows for billionaire-guys like Ambani, Mittals of India, UK, Africa where he probably gets anther 10000 just in tips. He's doing well for himeself and deserves every penny of it. The dude's been on the grind since day 1. And if he is really smart, he's probably invested a great deal in properties/restaurants.

I am sure he invested in properties, but restaurants? I don't think so, it requires time and he has none.
I am also sure that he has an elaborate house (now) in the U.K. and one in India as well.
In regards to investments, singers like his should buy and build their own studio, start a clothing line and invest in other talent (Like Jay Z and Eminem did).

Of course he is a millionaire. He charges £6500 for a party and does 2 shows a day. Plus the gigs and album sales he's making quite a bit. Deserves every penny as he is the best Singer/ performer in our generation.

wht has his financial state got to do with anyone apart from him and his family... at the end of the day, the guy grinded hard from day on, he never gave up, he trained and grew stronger. his success is thanks to the loyal fans, the intelligent lyricists and the talented producer sukshinder shinda not forgetting himself either.
i don't think he is a multi millionnaire but he is quite well off and so he should be, he worked hard.

Yes number1 has rightly said its due to loyal fans his sucess.
Look at me lol i used to buy his cd even when i did not even had a cd player itself lol.
His is the best thing to happen to bhangra his albums were up and up from the word go but his last album Rambo i must say did not do as good as it should coz its Jazzy b. well i am pretty sure he will come back fighting.
Jazzy b rulez (He is the best and he still has what its take to be there but he should forgive his hairs man and his style is also going downhill lol)

He is a millionaire, he is sitting on multi-millions and this producer/manager is well connected in Toronto with Sarbjit Saroya and the Planet Recordz camp.

I fail to see how you guys think it is funny? Yeah he is a huge Jazzy B fan but I have bought CDs even when I don't play them much after I rip them on my Ipod. The main reasons why I buy my cds is a) to support the artist b) to read the inlays and see who is credited and who did what.
As for his financial status increasing after Romeo I don't find that hard to believe. As I believe "Romeo" was one of the most complete album he has done. Also as number1 stated having amazing lyricists and a top class producer throughout his career did not hurt him to earn the money he deserved.

I supported him always coz i wanted to see him at bigger heights possible for a punjabi vocalist.
I think its high time for him to sing in a Hindi movie and let them feel the Punjabi folk power lol
