Diddy $550 Million Diddy has been one of the more impactful figures in hip hop for more than a decade. One way he’s been able to maintain a high level of success for so long is due to his dexterity and skill of continually promoting his several brands as well as himself. That’s allowed him to delve into other businesses outside of music such as his stake in Ciroc Vodka, which has been highly profitable. He’ll even be looking to start his own cable network by next year. These business ventures will pad his wallet and increase his $550 million worth up to billionaire status.   Jay-Z $460 Million It didn’t take long for Jay-Z to enact what he meant by his lyrics “I’m not a businessman, I’m a business, man…” as the Brooklyn artist has certainly shown his intelligence in other aspects of life away from the recording studio.

However, the two since the beginning of their relationship spend numerous hours and days apart due to their grueling work schedules and projects. This is good to know since the controversy impacted on Willow Smith’s singing career with negative attention drawn to their daughter over possible  depression of their supposed split up.

Sources close to the actor say that he declined to attend the ceremony “because it just w
