These British musicians under 30 made the most money in 2020
They’re young, talented, and millionaires
Although they haven’t reached their thirties, these young artists have a bank account with many zeros. Recognized around the world, they have a common element besides music: calling the United Kingdom or Ireland their home. Who’s heading the list of the richest young British artists this year?

Ed Sheeran
The absolute number one among the youngsters is Ed Sheeran. He has accumulated £200 million ($244 million) after adding £40 million ($49 million) to his wealth in the last year. Although his most recent album ‘Divide’ is from 2017, the singer has been touring well into 2019, allowing him to consolidate his number one position. He has three times as much money as the number two on the list.

Harry Styles
With £63 million in the bank ($77 million) and adding £5 million in the last 12 months ($6.12 million), it is clear that Harry Styles is the ‘One Direction’ guy with the best income. And the rest is not doing that bad either.

Niall Horan
In fact, all five former ‘One Direction’ members are on this list of young top earners. Niall Horan’s £50 million ($61.2 million) are proof of that. Mind you, the singer did not even do that well last year. He only made one million pounds (1.22 million dollars) and he has had to suspend his 2020 tour.

Little Mix
This group has accumulated $48 million ($58.7 million). But there’s obviously a catch here: the total must be divided by 25% for each of its members. Just like ‘One Direction’, this band emerged from the talent show ‘The X-Factor’.

Louis Tomlinson
And speaking of ‘One Direction’, Louis Tomlinson is the third former member to appear in the top five. Just imagine what a money machine this group was and how much more it could have been if it still existed today. Tomlinson has a worth of 45 million pounds (55 million dollars).

Zayn Malik
The last of the ‘One Direction’ singer to appear on this list is Zayn Malik. He comes in seventh with the same figure as the previous year: 36 million pounds ($44 million). Even though he was the first to break out of the group, his career was on hold in the past year. Among other things, he was busy building a family with Gigi Hadid. Just imagine when their baby comes; it must be one of the cutest in the world. Priceless.

Sam Smith
He hasn’t reached the age of 30 and he already sold more than 20 million albums, won a Golden Globe and an Oscar, and he has £33 million ($40.3 million) in the bank. Not bad.

Rita Ora
In the past year, Rita Ora released singles, toured, scored a film and judged in of the talent shows of the moment. It’s only natural that her account should show a balance of £20m ($24.4m) after increasing by £2m ($2.4m).
