Dr. Dre overtook last year’s no. 2, Diddy and now has an estimated net worth of $800 million. If you recall, Dre proclaimed himself the first billionaire in rap after his Beats By Dre deal but the percentage splits of the sale plus other costs proved that to be off just a bit.

And speaking of deals with big apparel brands, Drake comes in at No. 5 with $150 million, brought on by his constant touring (he brings in $2 million a night), his stake in Virginia Black whiskey and more.
