Young , Rich and Black..the most unlikely..Rappers..people from the 'hood. holla that! (162 hits)


I have been a follower of Forbes top millionaires from the 1980's. I would peruse the longlist of un-colored (my new word) leaders in business. Then came Forbes list of entertainers..I do remember when Bill Cosby appeared way before Oprah.. but this list is one that the media had to make room for:

1. 50 Cent- $50 million.
2. Jay-Z $84 million
3. Diddy $35 million
4.Kanye West $30 million
5.Timbaland $22 million
6. Pharrell $20 million
7. Swizz Beats $17 million
8. Snoop Dogg $16 million
9. Dr.Dre $15 million
10.T.I. $13 million
11. Lil Wayne $13 million
12. Akon $12 million
13. Jermaine Dupri $11 million
14. Lil Jon $11 million
15. Outkast $10 million
16. Chamillionaires $10 milllion
17. The Game $10 million

This list came from this month's Jet, they ascribed the same list number for their purposes if the rapper made the same amounts of money. But my purpose for putting this here is two fold. WHERE is the list for the sisters who are top earners in the game?..and are our Black brothers in business s*xist?.
