[jono]

Well we know their names are on the checks but if you think Lil Wayne & Drake walking off with more paper that Baby?

 

[usmarin3]

Mac Miller is a indie artist, keep that in mind

 

[mrshadeed]

Suprised to see Pitbull higher than Tech N9ne. He completely crossed over and it paid off.

 

[DarcSkies]

5. Lil Wayne – $27 million

6 Drake – $20.5 milliom

7. Birdman – $20 million

8. Nicki Mianj- $15.5 millio

Say what u want about Young Money but they look out for their people.

Where are Diddy & Jay-Z's artists on this list? OH OK lol And I like those two cats. But Young Money seem to be the only label that makes sure their artists are good.

[southsil4lil]

Tech9 won

 

[GeE-757]

salute 2 tech9 he really repz that REGIME LIFE

Baby got three of his CashMoney/YoungMoney artists on the list (Drake,Wayne,Nicky)

JayZ got two of his Roc Nation/RocAFella artists on the list (J.Cole, & Kanye).

Dr Dre got two of his Aftermath artists on the list (Emenim, 50-Cent)

Rozay got one of his MMG artists on the list (Wale)

I like when the bosses share the wealth and let their artists eat instead of robbing them....I think Luda dropped the ball with

2-Chainz but Kanye to his credit gave him the spotlight and support he needed to turn it up a level.

Wonder if Bow Wow, Lil Chuckee, Tyga, Jae Millz, Busta Rhymes etc would agree?

Nicki, Drake and Wayne would bank that much no matter what label they on, they marketable...nothing to do with Baby looking out for his artist at all....

 

[H-Rap 180]

Dude oh my God.

This is a huge and major "L" for Emenim, all those sales and production, all the hype and exposure and he let Kanye double his annual earnings for 2011.

But the likes of him and 50 ain't even released an album in 2012 or even a single for that matter yet they still caking crazy numbers more than people that actually have dropped an album in 2012

Props on the list. Good to know Cole, Wale and Cudi almost made it. They're smart enough not to spend whole money on cribs and cars.
