Canadian rapper Aubrey ‘Drake’ Graham has become the newest member of The Forbes Five club of hip-hop’s wealthiest artist the first time.
This morning, Forbes announced that their Forbes Five list has a new member: Drizzy Drake. The rapper, who is already regarded as rap royalty, is now among hip-hop’s five wealthiest members, replacing is-he-or-isn’t-he-broke rapper 50 Cent.
The list is still topped by Diddy, who apparently has a net worth of $750 million. Drake earns his spot thanks to a $60 million net worth. According to Forbes, this wealth was ‘accumulated through multi-platinum recordings, million-dollar-grossing tours and seven figure endorsements.’
50 Cent’s spot slipped through his fingers when he had to field multi-million dollar lawsuits and filed for bankruptcy. He’s evidently not having the best week Lol.
Take a look at the newly refurbished Forbes Five list for 2016 below– you’ll notice the top 3 are identical to last year’s list, while Birdman moves up a spot to #4.
- Diddy ($750 million)
- Dr. Dre ($710 million)
- Jay Z ($610 million)
- Birdman ($110 million)
- Drake ($60 million)
