Abdul “Duke” Fakir is an American singer who has a net worth of $3 million. He was born in December of 1935 and is best known for his work with Motown and the Four Tops, both of which were popular singing groups. He started with them in 1954 and has continued his professional singing ventures ever since.
However, his partners have since passed away; he is the only surviving member out of either ventures. He is also known for his singing abilities as the first tenor. Fakir, who is better known by his nickname Duke, was born in Detroit, Michigan and is of Ethiopian and Bangladeshi decent. He initially met his first future band mate, Levi Stubbs, when attending Pershing High School in Motor City. The pair then met up with Lawrence Payton and Renaldo “Obie” Benson in 1954 when they were attending a friend’s birthday party. It was at this point that they banded together in order to create “The Four Aims,” which was later changed to the Four Tops. They went on to become one of the most well known Motown singing quartets and helped set the sound for music ventures throughout the 1960s. Many of their songs are still known today.
