Ed Lover’s Net Worth: $5 million

Prior to his solo career, Ed Lover was part of No Face, an unconventional hip hop group including Kevon Shah and Mark Skeete, also known as Mark Sexx. The trio debuted in 1989 under Island Records with the album “Hump Music”, a risqué underground parody of The Jungle Brothers’ 1988 “I’ll House You”. In 1990, No Face released “Wake Your Daughter Up” under their own label, but Ed Lover was not credited on the album.

In the early 1990s, Ed Lover began co-hosting “Yo! MTV Raps” where he crossed paths with Doctor Dré, a co-VJ at the time. Ed Lover made a cameo in Doctor Dré’s “Wanted” music video from the album “The Bytches” (1991). His punch line “C’mon, son!” and the Ed Lover Dance endeared him to audiences. As co-host of New York’s Hot 97 FM Morning Show and HBO’s “KO Nation”, Ed Lover firmly established himself in the rap world, culminating in a net worth of $5 million.

Ed Lover’s radio-hosting career paralleled his foray into acting. In 1993, he and Doctor Dré co-wrote and starred in Ted Demme’s directorial debut, “Who’s the Man”. Notable acting roles for Ed Lover include Marvin Bonds in the 2002 action thriller “Undisputed”, as well as appearances in “According to Jim” and “Psych”. These acting engagements contributed significantly to his net worth.

Amidst maintaining a mostly private personal life, rumors circulated in the media about Ed Lover’s divorce from his wife Kim, with whom he shares two children, allegedly due to extramarital affairs and fathering two more children.
