How JayDaYoungan Earned His Net Worth

Javarious Scott was born in Bogalusa, Louisiana on July 14, 1998. His stage name is JayDaYoungan and he's an American rapper and hip-hop musician. Javarious has experienced significant success as a songwriter and rapper since dropping out of high school when he reached the age of 18.

He works with Ruffway Records and continues to be a prolific songwriter and hip-hop artist. He is still building his career and hopes to one day have his own recording label to help other fledgling musicians. He might have had some trouble with the law but his music does resonate with audiences around the world.

Despite the artist's brushed with the law, he is still bringing in income from advertising revenue and mixtape and merchandise sales. It is estimated that he has roughly $190,000 to his name. Hopefully, his future mixtapes will sell well too because lawyers are expensive.

Young Beginnings

JayDaYoungan was even a top nominee for the 'XXL Freshman List' of rappers to watch in 2018. His next mixtape entitled 'The Real Jumpman 23' featured 13 songs and a run time of 32 minutes. Scott's third mixtape 'Wake Up' boasted a big name (NBA 3Three) cameo in the rap industry which was followed up with another celebrity cameo on the 'Taking Off' mixtape that featured FG Famous.

The artist's first hit came with his song 'Elimination' on his mixtape 'Forever 23', which gathered more than 19 million plays on the Spotify platform. In the spring of 2020, Scott granted an interview with Genius to explain the meaning behind his hit tune.
