Career and Net Worth:

Daveed Diggs holds the record as the fastest rapper in Broadway History. In 2010, Diggs joined the American Hip hop group ‘Clipping’ as a vocalist and writer, and also released his duo album named, ‘THE BABY BOY Mixtape’ in collaboration with Rafael Casal.

On January 2, 2012, he made a solo debut from the album, ‘Small Things to a Giant.’ He is also the member of two other groups, ‘Freestyle Love Supreme’ and ‘True Neutral Crew.’

Diggs has also embraced his career in acting. He has enacted in some renowned plays such as, ‘Temptation’ (2005), ‘Troilus and Cressida’ (2008), ‘The Tempest’ (2006), and ‘A Behanding in Spokane’ (2012).

However, he experienced a turnover in his career after working on 2015 Broadway musical ‘Hamilton’ as Thomas Jefferson. He won several awards including Tony Awards (2016) for Hamilton, Grammy Award (2016) for Hamilton, Lucille Lortel Awards (2015) for his portrayal.

Besides that, the rapper hasn’t revealed the exact details of his financial status, but considering his earnings from the album and acting credits, it must have crossed a million dollar mark.
