Make It Rain: The 20 Richest Rappers Alive Today
Posted on July 31, 2012 by OneEightKevin
Having money is nice. Who do you think is #1?
The dudes over at CelebrityNetWorth have compiled a list of 20 living rappers with the highest net worth.
Starting off the list is our incoming visitor Rick Ross, who’s worth $25 million.
Nelly is probably still living off Ride Wit Me, because the dude is still sitting at a cool $55 million at #18.
Skip a little head and Kanye West is sitting at a disappointingly low #11, worth a rather pathetic $90 million. Chump change.
YMCMB mogul Birdman slots in at #7 with $115 million, while the Shady/Aftermath crew are represented by Eminem, 50 Cent and Dr. Dre all make high-end appearances.
Strangely enough, Master P comes straight out of left field to take #3, worth $350 million. What the hell? Pretty unexpected.
No surprises to see Jigga fly right over Yeezy and take out #2, worth $475 million.
And the coveted #1 spot goes to none other than Puff Daddy aka Diddy, with a net worth of $500 million. Holy shit. I guess waving bottles of Ciroc in every music video actually paid off, big time. However, whether or not Puffy is actually a rapper is a whole other argument.
Check out the full list below, and throw some hunnids in the air while you’re at it.
