John Lennon – $800 million
Greatest Hits: Imagine, Working Class Hero
John Lennon is as legendary a figure as a music artist can be. He was one of The Beatles’ co-founders, which is one of the greatest bands to have ever been formed. Once The Beatles tragically disbanded, Lennon would proceed on his own with an incredibly prominent solo career. Songs like Working Class Hero, Imagine, and War is Over would be just as successful as his former band’s. Lennon was shockingly and tragically killed in December, 1980.
