Jay Z is now the richest rapper in the world

posted in Hollywood News |

Looks like lady luck is beaming bright on Jay Z. He earned £18million last year and that made him the World’s Richest Rapper.

He outsold 50 cent who finished second by earning £17million last year, according to business website Forbes.

Sean Combs finished third after earning £14.8million. Timbaland, Dr Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg and Kanye West followed next in the Top 10 list.

Apart from his album sales, Jay Z earned a whooping £108.5million in March when he sold his Rocawear fashion label. This means he is definitely a cut above the rest for the coming year too.

I’m sure his arm candy Beyonce Knowles must be quite proud of her beau. I guess we can expect their wedding to happen soon.
