After sifting through a bevy of financial documents and obtaining the opinions of various analysts, industry insiders, attorneys, etc, Forbes magazine has compiled a short list of the wealthiest hip hop artists. From his Bad Boy Records label to Sean John clothing line, it is no surprise that Mr. Can’t Stop Won’t Stop aka Sean “P.Diddy” Combs snatched the top spot with his calculated net worth of $475 million. Let’s pop a bottle of Ciroc to that!
Coming in at number two is Mr. Carter [Jay-Z] with a whopping net worth of $450 million. What’s a $50 million difference??? If you combine Jay and Beyonce’s money, our modern day Bonnie and Clyde will knock Diddy out the park. LOL… Honestly, it is good to see hip hop cats take this business to another level. The remaining three individuals on the list has a lot to talk about too. Check out who they are:
1. Sean “P.Diddy” Combs = $475 million
2. Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter = $450 million
3. Dr. Dre = $125 million
4. Baby “Birdman” Williams = $100 million
