Early Life
E-Money‘s wealth started with the acquisition of a $2 million dollar contract. However, the slum boy paid his dues while growing up.
Born originally as Emeka Okonkwo on the 18th of February 1981, E-Money was raised alongside his elder brother; also known as the Limpopo master, Kcee (Kingsley Chinweike Okonkwo).
He was raised in the rough neighborhood of Ajegunle in Lagos State. His dad who was a popular disc jockey in the ghetto area worked tirelessly alongside his mum to provide daily meals for the boys.
According to the Nigerian business mogul, his dad never wanted him or Kcee to venture into music, claiming that the industry was unprofitable, except for those with enough resources.
Emeka Okonkwo a.k.a E-Money recently admitted how he learned a lot from his childhood days in the slums of Lagos, which spurred him and his brother to work hard for a better future.
Education

Career
With a large business empire that covers both the Shipping industry and the Music industry, the ‘money man’ has truly moved from grass to grace within a decade.
