It's that time of year again, when Forbes reveals the coveted Hip-Hop Cash Kings list.
Over the past few years, the Cash Kings list has been a back and forth battle between Jay-Z and Diddy, but this year, Dr. Dre tops the list as Forbes' ultimate Cash King.
Although Dr. Dre hasn't released an album in over a decade, Dr. Dre's
Beats by Dre headphones have landed him in the number one spot.
This year's Cash Kings list is comprised of the usual money makers.
Sean "Diddy" Combs and Jay-Z clock in at number two and three, while
Kanye West isn't far behind with an estimated $35 million, which lands
him in the final four.
Lil Wayne's YMCMB army dominates the Cash Kings list, taking spots five through eight, with a combined worth of a whopping $85 million.
