Lil Wayne just got sued for 15mili..sooo there goes his money
Daamnnnnnnnn son, 50 dropped from top 3 on the list all the way down to rick ross level….shit is sad.
sad? 6 million in a year with NO music out and no momentum?
restate your assumptions and start again.
FYI the guy who made number one had no album out in that time frame. 50 has gone from grace to grass. karma is a bitch. its murder(in my ja rule voice)
jay-z owns a piece of livenation = the company that produces everyone’s tours. plus he owns a piece of the nets. plus a piece of carol’s daughter. plus a piece of the Fela musical.
let’s not forget that 50 cashed out of vitamin water for $100 million a couple of years ago. he’s aight.
6 million in a year is karma?
ja rule is handwashing his cellmate’s boxers in the feds right now with lipstick on. and he’s still in the red to the IRS. that’s murder, dickhead.
putt lil wayne and baby money together and still…ah forget it! lol
add like 3 million on each of them bc they dont pay for shit and get free shit thrown at them every where they go
Puffy got the right plan. His music may not be popping right now but he knows how to diversify and make that money another way. Gotta love that.
Where is Drake?
No way he made less than $5 mil
sorry… there he is at 11
Where is Soulja Boy
“still aint got my lady money” Jay-Z
You guys realize this is what they made this year… So 15 mili to Wayne is pocket change. you dumb fucks!
?????????
WOW Fif didnt even have an Album out all he had was thisis50.com lol thats pretty good
Lol Wayne wood have more if he didn’t split everything wit baby like that’s his bitch it something
that it?35 mill>? really jay ? and you think because of 35 million a year you can say you’re a god and blaspheme.
