Jay Z is the richest rapper in the world.
The Def Jam CEO earned around $34 million last year thanks to his work with Def Jam, the 2 million copies of his Kingdom Come album sold plus money from his sponsorships with Budweiser, Hewlett-Packard and General Motors.
Next in the list were 50 Cent [$32 million], Diddy, Timbaland and Dr Dre. I guess now is the bit where we say “Cash rules everything around us, CREAM get the money, dollar dollar bill y’all” or “Mo money, mo problems” right…?
