Travis Barker's music is a primary source of his wealth. He gained widespread recognition as Blink-182's drummer and contributed significantly to their success. The band's album "Enema of the State" alone sold over 15 million copies, adding substantially to Barker's earnings. Barker's appearances on reality television, notably the MTV series "Meet the Barkers," contributed to his financial portfolio. He authored a memoir titled "Can I Say: Living Large, Cheating Death, and Drums, Drums, Drums," published in 2015, which likely generated revenue from book sales.

Barker ventured into entrepreneurship by founding the clothing line "Famous Stars & Straps" in 1999. He is also the founder of LaSalle Records, a subsidiary of Atlantic Records, established in 2004. While many of the label's initial signees have transitioned to other labels, LaSalle Records continues to represent Travis Barker and the punk rock/rap rock supergroup, Transplants, of which he is a member. Barker's discography includes three albums, namely "Give the Drummer Some," "Rawther," and "Might Not Make It." These albums showcase his collaborative ventures with acclaimed artists such as Lil Wayne, Pharrell Williams, Snoop Dogg, Kid Cudi, and Young Thug.
