What is Sheff G’s net worth?
Introduction
Caribbean American rapper Sheff G (born Michael Kyle Williams) went from Brooklyn gang kid to viral rapper seemingly overnight.
From his stints in jail to his childhood involvement with the Crips to his success in music to how much he’s worth, here’s everything we know about Sheff G.
The Origin Story
On the 23rd of September in 1998, Michael Kyle Williams was born in Flatbush, Brooklyn, New York.
His mother is from Trinidad and his father is from Haiti.
He grew up in a small home with many members of his family like cousins, aunts and uncles, and his grandma.
Sheff’s neighborhood block (Clarkson) was a tight community.
There were block parties, and in the summer, the kids would play in open fire hydrants.
He played a lot of classic video games with his cousins to pass the time as a young kid.
When he wasn’t at home or in school, he was being exposed to gang violence in Flatbush.
At 12 years old, to help protect himself from street violence, Michael (aka Sheff G) was initiated into the 83 (“Eight Trey”) Gangsta Crip gang.
When Williams was in high school, he got arrested and received probation for discharging a firearm at a shopping center (Kings Plaza).
One week shy of his 16th birthday, he was arrested and booked in for fighting, which didn’t come as a surprise.
Sheff G’s high school had a tradition that freshman students get “jumped” on Fridays.

At 17 years old, Sheff G was incarcerated on a felony gun charge and robber until he was 19 (he did 16 months). The rapper dropped out of high school during his senior year.
Thanks to exposure by his older cousins, Sheff G’s childhood favorite rappers included Notorious B.I.G., Eminem, and 50 Cent, as well as some Chicago drill-style rappers (Lil Bibby, G Herbo, Lil Durk, Chief Keef, etc.)
He was so inspired by the drill rappers from Chi-Town that he decided to start rapping himself.
