@Big shishi Damon Dash & Russel Simmons, I would call passers. If they rap, it's in their shower. Puffy too is not really a rapper he sells clothes to make money. |

Here's a link http://blogs.mochacity.com/blog-entry/315/jay-z-is-2007-s-richest-rapper-/ But I believe diddy still has more assets that both of them because jay-z got where he is by selling his companies while diddy still has all his companies intact. Fiddy's wealth is so impressive within so short a period |
Re: Who Is The World's Known Richest Rapper? by thegame(m): 7:16pm On Jun 10, 2007 |
Diddy is still the richest and don't even put 50's name as the richest.Is he the only one to ever buy a company shares?That guy would never beat jigga and diddy |

Re: Who Is The World's Known Richest Rapper? by thegame(m): 4:26pm On Jun 12, 2007 |
freshkid:WHat is wrong with you and Po Deep? You mean cos jigga sold rocawear for 204 mil cash makes him the richest. I don't think you know that being the richest is not about how much you have in your account but how much is generated into your account. What if diddy sells his Sean John which i wouldn't want him to do. YOu think sean john is worth less than 500 mil?If you think so, better rethink. Sean John clothing line is worth more than 500 mil. DIDDY IS STILL THE RICHEST EVEN IF JIGGA SELLS ROCAFELLA AS A WHOLE. ANd don't forget he betrayed the other 2 owners of rocawear by selling rocawear. Hope you know this? |
Re: Who Is The World's Known Richest Rapper? by mrmetoo(m): 6:10pm On Jun 12, 2007 |
thegame: Thats my point too but the people that do the rankings probably do it by what is in your account or so which makes jay-z the richest and diddy third. If diddy starts selling his companies, which I too hope he doesn't, he would blow all of 'em out of the water. Even just his Sean John cologne has been generating million per month for both Sean John and Estee Lauder (which has been one of their best-selling fragrances ever). So Sean John as a whole is definitely worth a lot |

Like I always end these kinda arguments: OK, u're right. Peace. |
Re: Who Is The World's Known Richest Rapper? by A40(m): 11:13am On Jun 13, 2007 |
They say its Diddy but me think its Jigga, i mean he grossed 38mil last year alone, and for you guys talking about Baby and co, that guy does not have a quarter of Jayz's money, And for you all that all said Jigga cant rap im just gonna act like i didnt hear that ROCAFELLA YALL |

A-40:Number 1, he grossed 38 million from what business?All of a particular one? Also, Point of correction, BAby has a more than quarter of jigga's money. For God's sake, that guy is Cash Money CEO.HE is also rich Vroom on a yamaha, chromed out eleven hundred, what we doing getting money what they doing, hating on us but they never cross cash money still still a company and b i t c h i'm the boss and i be stunting like my daddy Number2, The mansion you said he bought for 4 million was bought for like 5 mil or so and he refurbished it with 6 mil. so what do you think?he shd sell it for 7 mil?NO. I wouldn't do that. He added nnsense to his house. he added a strip club,helipad, senseless pools and so on and the designers thought that was a great money maker for them Number3, What do u think money is?Paper that grows on tree?WHy will coca cola buy vitamin water for 4 billion? That will even make the guy richer than oprah winfrey and b.e.t owner. Boy, be sure before you post please. Thank yo. Diddy is still the richest. He generates money geniously and doesn't buy senseless hummers and lamborghinis |

Re: Who Is The World's Known Richest Rapper? by thegame(m): 6:15pm On Jul 02, 2007 |

Re: Who Is The World's Known Richest Rapper? by tipsy289(m): 9:28am On Mar 24, 2008 |
Jay-z doesnt really have $360 million or diddy have that much.They added the value of Roc-a-fella and other enterprises they have although Bad Boy value was not added to diddy wealth(with Bad Boy he'll be $800 million). |
