Puff Daddy tops the list of "The Forbes Five: Hip Hop’s Wealthiest Artists 2014,” which was released today (April 16).
The man also known as Sean “Diddy” Combs has a worth of $700 million, according to the article.
"His newly-launched REVOLT TV provides him with a majority equity stake
that could one day make him Hip Hop’s first billionaire,” the story
says.
Dr. Dre
is #2 on Forbes’ list. Born Andre Young, the rapper-producer owes much
of his $550 million fortune to Beats by Dre, the headphone company which
he co-founded with Jimmy Iovine in 2008.
Jay Z
lands at #3 on the list. The Brooklyn, New Yorker’s deals with Rocawear
and Live Nation netted him a surplus of $150 million each, helping
Jigga assemble a $520 million empire.
Bryan “Birdman” Williams,
also known as Baby, earns the #4 slot on Forbes’ list. His 50 percent
stake in Cash Money Records provides the majority of his $160 million
fortune.
50 Cent
is #5 on Forbes’ list. Curtis Jackson’s wealth largely comes from his
VitaminWater pact, from which he earned a reported $100 million.
