What is Mally Mall's net worth?
Jamal "Mally Mall" Rashad is a hip-hop producer. You may recognize him from his brief stint on VH1's hit show 'Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood'. The 45-year-old producer's net worth is estimated to be $20 million according to CelebrityNetWorth. He was born in Northern California and began his career by working as a music producer under Ant Banks and Rick Rock.
He later founded his own two music labels- Mally Mall Music and Future Music. He produced tracks and albums for top artists such as Drake, Justin Bieber, Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, Usher, Tyga, French Montana, etc, under his own label. Following the success of his documentary project with 50 Cent titled '2 Turntables and a Microphone: The Life and Death of Master Jam J', he also added producing soundtracks for movies to his portfolio. He describes himself as "Multi Platinum Producer/Writer Artist/Actor" on his Instagram bio.
Why was Mally Mall arrested?
Earlier this year in May, Mally Mall was sentenced to 33 months in prison for operating a prostitution business over the span of 12 years, according to federal prosecutors.
Between April 2002 and September 2014, the music producer "operated a high-end prostitution business that transported victims across the United States," and used paid websites "to advertise the victims for prostitution purposes," the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Nevada said in a statement.
The 45-year-old ran the sex services ring with women he dubbed "Priority Girls," pimping them out between 2002 to 2014 and charging clients between $1,000 to $10,000 per date, federal prosecutors said. The authorities also revealed that the women working for Mally Mall only received a tiny fraction of the money from the date's proceeds. He also reportedly maintained very tight control over the women and their activities. "After a woman became a Priority Girl, she quickly learned that defendant expected her to follow many rules. For example, defendant required Priority Girls to text him when they went anywhere, they were not allowed to date anyone, and defendant encouraged them to get Rashid (Mally Mall) related tattoos to demonstrate their loyalty to him," stated the sentencing memo by Acting U.S. Attorney Christopher Chiou.
Mally Mall had already pleaded guilty in October 2019 to one count of use of an interstate facility in aid of unlawful activity. The producer's lawyer, Steve Sadow, told TMZ "Mally Mall over the last several years had dedicated his life to music and helping people. He has fully recognized the error in his ways and has gone out of his way to try to make amends. He intends to take full advantage of each and every program offered by the Federal Bureau of Prisons." Mally turned himself into the Federal Correctional Institution in Sheridan, Oregon. His release date is currently slated for December 15, 2023.
'Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition' Season 16 premieres on October 7 at 9/8c on WE tv.
