American record producer, DJ, rapper and painter, Kasseem "Swizz Beatz" Dean, has an estimated net worth of $65 million. Swizz Beatz started as a DJ and later he began to produce tracks at the tender age of 16, when his relatives became involved with the Ruff Ryders label. He produced countless rap and R&B acts, from DMX to Eve, but he never really got much credit for his work. It wasn't until his first solo album, 2002's G.H.E.T.T.O. Stories, that he started to get notices for his production style and interesting ideas. His next five years found him landing hit after hit and becoming more in demand with each production.
It’s been more than a decade since Swizz burst onto the scene by producing DMX’s “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem” at age 16; since then, he has piled up a massive production and credits to his catalog, working with artists from Beyoncé to Lil Wayne and most recently on Jay-Z and Kanye West’s Watch The Throne. He recently announced a lucrative partnership with Reebok.
On 31 July 2010 , Swizz Beatz tied the knot with singer Alicia Keys ; Keys gave birth to their son, Egypt Daoud Ibarr Dean, on October 14, 2010.
