Leading the pack of hustlers is Diddy, who made the transition from a record executive to a media mogul. Back in 2012, Diddy announced Revolt TV was in the works and he launched the network in 2013. Since then, Revolt TV has continued to expand and now broadcasts Power 105.1’s “The Breakfast Club.”
Adding Charlamagne Tha God, DJ Envy, and Angela Yee has made for a very big move for the new network. Diddy has a lot going on and he is bringing more wealth to the table with his businesses. The past year has seen a dramatic increase in his net worth, this is what gives him the right to drop knowledge.
Recently, Forbes came out with their latest Hip Hop’s Wealthiest Artists list and at the top of the list is Dizzy. His net worth is now at $700 million and counting and he shares this list with Jay-Z, Birdman, Dr. Dre, and 50 Cent. Dr. Dre is second with $550 million, Jay-Z is third with $520 million, Birdman is fourth with $160 million, and 50 Cent is fifth with $140 million.
