What are Rae Sremmurd's sources of income?
The brothers have earned most of their money from music sales, concert performances, and a huge chunk from streaming. Their life took a turn when they met Jeniah Middlebrooks, with whom they would go on to form a hip-hop band named Dem Outta St8 Boyz. The crew went on to churn music videos on social media and was soon joined by their schoolmate Jermarcus Jackson as a DJ, and they soon stopped attending school to devote their entire time to music. They achieved regional success in 2010, although they were thrown out of their homes for leaving education. By this time the group consisted of 5 members and soon started working with Slaughter in Georgia. They gained traction by performing in Talent shows and even released a mixtape, but things didn't go as planned and they soon split. After returning to Georgia, the two brothers continued performing in small-scale concerts and talent shows, which set up their meeting with record producer Mike Will Made, who had a label named Made-it Mafia. The duo signed up with the label and decided to keep their stage name as Rae Sremmurd which is simply "Ear" and "Drummers" spelled backwards.
Success finally came in the year 2013 when they appeared on the mixtape by Mike Will Made It. The track was titled "We" and it later became their first-ever promo single. The duo went on to release songs like "No Flex Zone" and "Throw Sum Mo" and later the song reached number 36 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The duo also has their own music record label named SremmLife Crew Records. They have signed a native Mississippi rapper through the label and worked with him until he found success.
