Rapper, Diddy becomes a billionaire, replaces Kanye West as the second richest hip-hop artist

On the list of the richest hip-hop musicians in 2022, Diddy has overtaken Kanye West and moved up to second place.

With a net worth estimated at $1 billion, the 52-year-old rapper and record producer is now recognized as a billionaire. Diddy’s stake in Ciroc, which is estimated to be worth $60 million, is largely responsible for the dramatic increase in his income. Revolt and DeLeón Tequila are further assets that add to his overall wealth.

Jay-Z, who has a net worth of $1.5 billion, is at the top of the list.

With a $500 million net worth, Kanye is currently third on the list. With an estimated worth of $410 million, Berner and Dr. Dre are the final two people on the list.

The rapper apparently lost $1.5 billion last week after Adidas decided to part ways with him over his frequent antisemitic statements. The brand pulled the plug on its deal with Ye’s apparel brand on October 25.

The remaining of Kanye’s wealth now comes from his 5% stake in SKIMS, his ex-wife Kim Kardashian’s shape-wear brand, and through his earnings from his music career and real estate holdings.
