Dr. Dre is really cashin’ out. After topping the Hip-Hop Forbes list
of 2012 in September, Dr. Dre is back on the number 1 spot on the
Highest Paid Musicians list released by Forbes with a cool $110 million
in the pocket. Says Forbes:
Hip-hop super producer Dr. Dre leads the pack this year with $110
million, thanks largely to his Beats headphone line. He collected $100
million pretax when handset maker HTC paid $300 million for a 51% stake
in the company last year, at the beginning of our scoring period; he and
his partners later bought back half of what they sold.
18 year Justin Bieber is on the 10th spot with $55 million while
Rihanna and Diddy occupy the 12th and 15th positions respectively.
Beyonce is #18 with $40 million, Jay-z at #20 ($38 million), Kanye West
#22 with $35million
