As of this writing, Dank Demoss's net worth is unknown. However, the "Straight to It" performer has been on her grind since she started rapping in the 2010s. Dank went viral online in 2017 when she posted a nude photo of herself on Facebook. The image circulated online and was one of the many ways she has advocated for the plus-size and body-positive communities.
