PnB Rock Says He Makes No Money Off His Music

Philadelphia-born rapper PnB Rock is one of the most popular exports from his city but he remains one of the more slept-on artists in the game. He’s experienced tremendous success in his career, racking up over a billion streams on Spotify. His songs “Selfish”, “Horses”, and “I Like Girls” have proven to be massive hits but despite how well they’ve performed, the rapper says he doesn’t see much money from them at all.
