Gianna Floyd, daughter to late George Floyd has expressed gratitude to U.S. rapper, Kanye West over the education trust fund he set up for her.

The adorable 6-year-old girl has taken to her new Instagram account to thank Kanye West, who recently awarded her a whopping sum $2 million in scholarship for her college education.

“Thank You Kanye, Because of You I Will have a college Education… Mommy and I are so thankful for you and your family,” said Gianna in her post.

And this heartwarming thanksgiving comes after it was revealed that Barbara Streisand gifted her stocks in the multi-billion entertainment empire, Disney.

Kanye West has officially joined the billionaires club.

In a Forbes Magazine article published Friday, it reveals how the rapper recently provided documents to the publication, giving them an “authentic numeric look into Kanye, Inc.” to prove the feat. 

After going through the evidence, the publication has confirmed the rapper’s financial status, noting that it was something that West had previously claimed during an appearance at the 2019 Fast Company Innovation Festival. 

He’s made it: Kanye West has officially joined the billionaires club, according to a Friday report from Forbes Magazine 

“When I did Forbes, I showed them a $890 million receipt and they still didn’t say ‘billionaire,'” Kanye told the audience. 

Forbes’ Zack O’Malley Greenburg reveals in the article how eager the rapper was for it to be known that he had reached this financial milestone, claiming that West’s team provided the outlet with proof of his earnings.

The publication has valued West’s assets at just over a billion, claiming that he is worth around $1.26 billion, while the rapper had claimed that the figure was around $3 billion.  

Credit due: The publication has valued West’s assets at just over a billion, claiming that he is worth around $1.26 billion, while the rapper had claimed that the figure was around $3 billion.

The news comes after West’s sister-in-law Kylie Jenner, 22, was named by Forbes as the youngest ‘self-made’ billionaire for the second year in a row after selling off 51% of her cosmetics brand. 

When that annual billionaires list appeared earlier this month, the writer of the article claims that West was not happy with his name being absent.

“You know what you’re doing,” O’Malley Greenburg claims West texted. “You’re toying with me and I’m not finna lye [sic] down and take it anymore in Jesus name.”

Ouch: When that annual billionaires list appeared earlier this month, which featured Kylie Jenner for a second year in a row, Kanye was reportedly unhappy to be left out

He is then claimed to have texted that Forbes was “purposely a part of a group of media” that was unwilling to give him the credit he was asking for because of his race. 

Per the report, West’s team provided statements that showed the rapper has $17 million in cash, $35 million in stocks, $81 million in “buildings and improvements” and $21 million in land.

The article notes that the money in buildings and land come mainly from the homes that she shares with wife Kim Kardashian West, and their children North West, six, Psalm West, four, Saint West, two, and Chicago West, 11 months. 

Forbes also delved into Adidas Yeezy, the fashion collaboration between the rapper and the German sportswear brand, which they claim has a revenue worth of around $1.3 billion – making West around $140 million from sales just last year. 

Forbes estimate that West’s Yeezy cut of the $140 million makes his stake worth about $1.4 billion, however, they noted that it’s a ‘private, highly-illiquid $1.4 billion’ pegging it closer to $1.26 billion. 

However, the article reveals that West was unhappy with their calculations, stressing that he believes his assets prove that he is worth $3 billion. 

“It’s not a billion,” West allegedly texted the publication Thursday night. “It’s $3.3 billion since no one at Forbes knows how to count.”
