The Breakdown: DJ Mustard has built an extensive net worth since his rise to popularity in the mid-to-late 2010s.

What is DJ Mustard’s net worth?
After over a decade of dropping hits, Mustard has amassed an impressive net worth. As of 2025, DJ Mustard’s net worth is projected to be around $20 million (per Celebrity Net Worth). The GRAMMY award winner’s wealth can be attributed to the long list of chart-topping hits he’s produced for A-list entertainers.
Mustard first gained popularity in the 2010s. Tracks like Tyga’s “Rack City,” Big Sean’s “I Don’t F**k With You,” and Ty Dolla $ign’s “Paranoid” dominated the charts and positioned Mustard as one of the leading producers in the hip-hop industry. Since then, he’s also produced hit songs for artists like Rihanna, The Migos, and Nipsey Hussle.
