Sean “Diddy” Combs has been crowned ;the No. 1 Cash King of 2015 ;by Forbes magazine. ;
The rap mogul, who earned $60 million this year, beat out Jay Z, Drake, Dr. Dre and Pharrell Williams to take the top spot. ;
According to Forbes, the earnings came from pretty much everything but his music: there’s the TV network, Revolt, his Sean John clothing line (we didn’t even realize it was still around, TBH), his alkaline water AQUAhydrate and Ciroc vodka. The rapper is also said to be releasing a new album soon, called “No Way Out 2,” which will surely bring him even more bucks.
The news of Diddy topping the list comes shortly after ;former Danity Kane members Aubrey O’Day and Shannon Bex claimed they never received any money while under his label.
Coming in at second place on the Forbes list is Jay Z, who made an impressive $56 million thanks to his “On the Run” tour ;with wife Beyoncé, and his Roc Nation entertainment company. Like Diddy, Jay also profits off alcohol — like nearly $10,000 bottles ;of Armand de Brignac champagne, to be exact. ;
Drake rounded out the top three with earnings of $39.5 million, mostly thanks to the 50 shows he performed for almost $1 million a night. Dr. Dre and Pharrell close out the top five with $33 million and $32 million, respectively. ;
