Capitalize on the backs of poor black people? Please enlighten me more to your thoughts on this because I didn't know that only black people was buying hip hop music & going to hip hop concerts?

Sounds to me more like crabs in a barrel

The honest truth is black people aren't buying music from actual retailers or going to concerts.[DOUBLEPOST=1397689510][/DOUBLEPOST]

I see three entertainers who've done nothing more than capitalize on the backs of poor black people...but...whatever.

That being said...the fact people argue over this always blows my mind. These forbes lists are somewhat of a detriment to the culture.[DOUBLEPOST=1397686681]

Their revenue isn't from black people but their "inspiration" is. The black man is the most copied man in the world so they packaged that up for anglos.

Live vicariously through mere entertainers, brehs

 

[Ayo]

1. Diddy
2. Notorious BIG
3. Tupac Shakur
4. Suge Knight
5. Dr. Dre
6. Baby

What the top 5 would have looked like if Tupac and BIG didn't die. 50 who? Jay-Z would have achieved a mere fraction of his success.

cost of living in the south tends to be cheaper minus some places compared to NY.

What is 700M in NO money?....close to a billy if he had to liquidate everything?

Baby lives in Miami beach breh. NYC prices. And why does cost of living matter when you have 10 million dollars worth of cars and built a 14 million dollar crib?

N.O. Ain't really cheap either compared to the rest of the south but that's neither here nor there since he don't live there

@ you thinking Jay isn't going to be richer than Dre in the long run + you gotta to add up that beyonce money which is like 500 millie

Both of them are rich forever, shyt and Jay may not catch Dre. Dre diversified and is getting more from products than he is from music. Jay does not have that popular of any products or anything that can be universally bought.

Once that IPO hits for Dre, Jayz aint catching him, with Bey money included. Dre and Diddy have more tangible businesses and income, we will see how the sports representation goes, Jayz money is still highly rooted in music, not the greatest business to be in still.
