Drake Replaces 50 Cent On Forbes Top 5 Rich List

Forbes has officially revealed that Drake is now included within its ‘Forbes Five: Hip Hop’s Wealthiest Artists’ list, dethroning 50 Cent for the first time.

The website has reported a net worth of $60m for the ‘Views’ rapper – generated from touring, music and a number of lucrative sponsorship deals with Apple, Nike, Sprite and more.

Drizzy is now number 5 on the list behind Jay Z, Birdman, Dr. Dre and Puff Daddy.

He once famously rapped “25 sitting on $25m" in ‘The Motto’ and also previously claimed that he wanted to make $250m by the time he was 29.

According to Forbes, 50 Cent was knocked off the list due to last year’s bankruptcy filing – with the rapper reportedly losing his $100 million Vitaminwater earnings.

Meanwhile, Puff Daddy is still at the top of the list with an estimated net worth of $750 million.

The music mogul has a number of lucrative investments including Ciroc, Sean John and his own media company Revolt.

Check out the list below:

5. Drake - $60m

4. Birdman - $110m

3. Jay Z - $610m

2. Dr Dre - $710m

1. Puff Daddy - $750m

Solid album. Views the song is fire. Sounds like lord knows 2.0. This album is like the sequel to Take Care.

To me its like the best parts of Take Care and even Thank Me Later

Drake always has 2 demographics to appease so Take Care will give you Over my Dead Body, Shot for Me, Cameras, but then have to appeaese the turn up and come with filler

TML wil give u songs like Karaoke and the resistance then appease the tuen up with BS

This album to me cut a lot of filler

LOL "its impossible to fuck up reggae"

LOL "its impossible to fuck up reggae"

Shit sounded so racist...

Nigga u always outta the loop, beat it foreigner

And I didnt stutter. Relatively speaking (Duh) its fuck8ng impossible to fuck up when blended with hip hop. Name me a bad rap song by a talented rapper with reggae influence I'll wait

Dmx Here comes the boom

Ja Crown

Super Cat ft Biggie Dolly My Baby

Distant Relatives

One Dance

Controlla

Plus half these niggas dont even know there favorite song is a reggae cover or influenced by it

Again, I'll wait. Bad mainstream rap-reggae song. Go...

Weston Road flows and Views are literally the only good tracks to me and both of those are too similar in execution

You the 2nd person to mention similar sounding songs

I like when albums have consistent themes and sounds. I remember listening to Blueprint and initially thinking Never Change, Song Cry, and a few others were similar. The songs always grow into their own.

Also what exactly does similar in execution mean. Lls Is that from Complex? Critiquing music has become so much more about the music itself. That Kanye shit

 

[25centsandwich]

This is the playlist im rockin with from now on:

1. 9

2. Weston Road Flows

3. Childs Play

4. Feel No Ways

5. With You

6. Faithful

7. Too Good

8. Hotline Bling

9. Summer's Over

10. Still Here

11. Pop Style

Everyone on this site considers the following album as a hip hop classic........

There isn't much difference between what L Boogie did back then and what Drake is doing now. Matter of fact, Drake raps way more than Lauren did.

Wow

Elaborate on your thought........

The example is being put out there because it seems that some of you have decided to criticize by calling Views a pop album. I'm now asking that you put a grown-up thought behind it.

It means they're basically the same damn song. The 90s r&b intro/sample, the topic and flow...

Very nicely summed up

How many copies have Joe's last few albums sold?......Matter of fact I'm curious if his entire catalog combined has moved as many units as this Drake album eventually will.

Too Short sold the same story on every album. Jeezy sells the same story on every album. Chuck D sells the same story on every album. This shit ain't nothing unique. Damn near every well known rapper sticks to the script.

You're allowing your dislike of Drake to make you cling to any criticism of him out there on the web.
