It looks like the Doc is on top!
According to the Forbes annual Hip Hop ‘Cash Kings’ List, it looks like the legendary Dr. Dre now has the top spot, raking in over $620 Million last year.
The D-R-E made the majority of his cash this year from the sale of Beats Audio to Apple earlier in the year, easily surpassing the hustles of both Diddy & Jay-Z, who tied for second at $60 Million each. After Hov & Puff, newcomer Drake took the next spot earning $33 Mil, followed (surprisingly) by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis with$32 million.
