What is Aitch’s Net Worth?
According to the site Stats Mash, Aitch is worth a whopping £902k already – not bad for a 19 year old! This figures comes from YouTube earnings, so it’s likely the rapper is pulling in more from tour dates and music sales too.
Aitch’s Increasing Net Worth And Rise To Fame
The British rapper and songwriter started out rapping in school. He then took to YouTube, and his first video got 100,000 views in just three months. Straight Rhymez, his first real track, got a whopping 12 million views! And from there, it was only a matter of time before he took off – and Stormzy took notice.
Aitch has had three singles chart in the UK top 40 – and his song Taste (Make It Shake) peaked at number 2. He’s also supported Wiley and Cadet on tour. All these single sales will definitely be helping Aitch’s net worth.
What’s His Real Name And Where Does The Name Aitch Come From?
Aitch’s real name is Harrison Armstrong. His rap name comes from the letter H, the first letter of his real name – it’s how the letter is pronounced.
In an interview with Capital XTRA, he said:
“Because it’s really the letter ‘H’, ain’t it, but I didn’t wanna be boring and just do that. Obviously, my real name begins with the letter ‘H’, so I’ve been called H from time.”
“Because we’re from down there [Manchester], everyone just says it like “aitch”… so I just spelt it that way.”

When the stars filmed the video for the remix of Take Me Back To London, Aitch took him to local café Love Lunch, where he often went while at school. A scene in the video was filmed there, bringing the café a lot of attention!
Aitch’s net worth is much higher than the average in his home town, where the rate of unemployment is higher than the national average.
