Diddy Beats Dr Dre in Forbes List of 5 Richest Hip Hop Kings!

Forbes release list of the Top 5 Richest Hip Hop kings and surprisingly, Diddy beat Dr Dre to the top spot. Dr Dre last year sold his Beats By Dre Company to Apple in 3 billion dollar

but while Dre’s wealth ($700m) derived from a single jackpot idea, Diddy’s is the product of his interests in a slew of companies, a handful of which could one day give him a Beats-esque exit." Forbes write. See the Top 5 after the cut...
