Forbes : Les rappeurs les + riches

Special Report, Hip-Hop Cash Kings
Lea Goldman with Jake Paine 08.16.07, 6:00 AM ET
1. Jay-Z banked an estimated $34 million in 2006, earning him the top spot on Forbes' first-ever list of hip-hop Cash Kings. Our estimates are based solely on 2006 income. In March, Jay-Z sold his Rocawear apparel label to Iconix (nasdaq: ICON - news - people ) for $204 million. Forbes estimates he pocketed about a quarter of that, after taxes and other payable commitments

2. Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, who nabbed the No. 2 spot on the list, presides over G-Unit, a diverse portfolio of businesses that includes apparel, ringtones, video games and even a line of fiction. All told, "Fiddy" as he is known to fans, made an estimated $32 million last year. And in May, Coca Cola (nyse: KO - news - people ) announced it would buy Glaceau, maker of VitaminWater, for $4.2 billion in cash. Once the deal is consummated, 50 Cent, who agreed to endorse the brand in 2004 in exchange for a small stake, should walk away with some $100 million

3. At No. 3 is impresario Sean "Diddy" Combs, formerly known as "Puff Daddy," who lords over Bad Boy Worldwide Entertainment Group. All told, Combs made an estimated $28 million last year. (Representatives for Diddy, ever the showman, insist that figure is much higher.)

4. Timbaland $21 million
5. Dr. Dre $20 million
6. Eminem $18 million
7. Snoop $17 million
8. Kanye West $17 million
9. Pharrell $17 million
10. Scott Storch $17 million
etc
