I still dont like Fifty’s retarded ass.

Diddy, yup, good for you too, because I know child support aint cheap.
Very Proud of all of them. I thought Timbaland would be higher tho
i love to see black people getting money
Yeah good for them, if there’s a 10 ten broke list i’m sure i”m on it, I swear I must work to pay bills, cha! and if you don’t pay they wanna get paid, I mean talk about selfish, what about me if my hair needs to get done end of story girlie has got to be styling,
Yeah back to the point I don’t give a shit how much money these lot got, they should really stop producing this lists a lot of criminals look at this and go after people, true story one guy was murdered in the UK and he was just a banker, you work hard for your money and people wanna do you something, it’s a messed up world we live in,
I get money, money, money (i get it)
2006? Why is this relevant now?
wtf!! girlie needs to look what she types, i meant to say they get mad if you don’t pay, cha i’m of today,
Wow Diddy got up staged by 50, someone needs to step their game up
Woooo gone Jay that’s my boo. Love it
Get it Fellas! Women, we have to step our game up!
p.diddy, jay z, timbaland and dr dre have been around since the early 90′s, fifty came around in 2003 and yet he is number two on the list, only two million behind jayz and this year made a reported 100 million…….. WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!! i think its fair to say HE RUNS THIS RAP SHIT, point blank
Shake ya money maka like somebody bout ta pay ya! Damn…Luda and Pharell are on the southern end of the millionaires huh??? Guess Gwen’s album didn’t do as well as you thought huh???

I hate when no-talent equates to money!!!

Good for them.
Glad Jay is number one.
Wait hole up!!! I just realized Diddy is in the picture too!!!!!! What a great relevant selection Angel! You guys are getting better everyday…I like the new “Post Art” too….

to the chic that said fifty is retarded, well done, you are a fool
So, I said Fifty is retarded. He has an effed up personality, I hate his arrogance and attitude. You would think that he would learn how to humble himself after being “Shot 9 times” . Money has nothing to do with this. You my darling, are the fool. Please, Im not all blinded by money, bling, etc…
I mean It really doesnt matter anyway, you the one being robbed by his ass, not me.
kudos to them
Im going back to watching my porno now .
Where are the women on this list. I am not impressed, just another male dominted field.
On the other hand…. Bey watch out. I may be trying to get at your man!
Congrats to the brothas!!! Congrats!
Great!! So now, all of you gold digging, video hoes now know who to target!
Get it bitches!
Yung Joc???????????????????? You playin right?
Or is that a misprint and it’s suppose to say worth 10 dollars.
CONGRATULATIONS TO MY MAN 50 DOIN HIS THING F**K ALL THE HATERS
KEEP GETTING THAT MONEY AND RUN STRAIGHT TO THE BANK WITH IT
Young joc?!?!?!?!?!?!
50 cent really means it when he says he gets money
shoutout to the haters who cant keep his name outta there mouths
and hes gonna be top of next year’s list because of that vit water deal
damn em and dre high on that list they must be getting that money from 50, and gud for 50 too!!!!!
i get money money i got,
money money i got, money money i got!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, Jay-Z’s been in the game 4 a while now, & 50 cent is just like 2 mill behind him. Now thats a hustler.
Maybe Yung Joc own some other ventures I know nothing about. Man I got to get on my grind.
@ 32. cosign,
but yeah nyc is on top of dat list jay, 50 and diddy, the big bosses of the nyc
even though they the only ones on it besides swizz beatz
@ # 14..ACTUALLY JAY-Z WAS NOT OUT IN DA EARLY 90′s…HIS FIRST ALBUM CAME OUT IN ’96′..DATS NOT EARLY 90′s…LOL
IM SO PROUD!!! I already knew who was gonna be in the top 3 BUT Eminem?? Yung Joc??….I would of never knew!!
WOW IM SHCOKED THAT YOUNG JOC IS ON THAT LIST BUT MORE POWER TO HIM
And is Diddy payin child support cause Kim would be on the “I get money” remix
@ 39. COSIGN 100%
Damn Jay & 50 is just 2 million away from each other but next year its gonna higher because 50 got 100 mill from Vitamin Water and Jay got 200 mill off of something but i forgot what it was
Much Respect to both of them niggaz doing it big time, Jay and Diddy should be on that “I Get Money” Remix w/ 50
Ha ha Puffy and Jay-Z must be cursing 50′s ass so bad. He’s only been properly in the game for a couple years, they’re running labels, hustling and shit all through the later 90s yet his dumb ass is right next to them… Plus Puffy and Jay-Z actually sound like they have a brain cell when they speak, 50 is such a dumb muthafucka. I swear there’s an evil genius sat inside his head operating his body. (and business decisions) I digress…
# 39 Em is eating off of 50 plate. Not sure why Joc is there I gotta respect his hustle. How much are ringtones checks?
i love that pic of 50 and jay my 2 hubbies they can get it any day, and rub their money all over me,
sorry beyonce and ciara
what about russell simmons?
@ 44.
Shut the Fuck Up
AND STOP HATING ON 50, THE MAN IS #2 SO OBVIOUSLY HE AIN’T THAT DUMB, YOU PROBABLY CANT EVEN MAKE $32.00
GOOD FOR JAY, DIDDY AND 50 MAKING THAT MONEY, BLACK BROTHERS DOING IT BIG, I LOVE IT
#13 has a point. Congrats to all the fellas who are clearly doing big things and being the best at it. However, woman we got to step our game up.
Big ups to 50 cent for making that cheddar, Ciara got a good man like Keysia Cole stated on 106 & park. Jay-Z is that dude 4-sure, Beyonce kno what the f#$@ she doing. For every good man theres a great woman behind them.
Good for Jay – that’s my dude.
50 started making business moves as soon as he got on, whereas Jay just started with his “business” ventures 6? years ago. So that’s pretty much around the same time and Jay’s still winning (not that it matters, but for those that compared.) 50′s lucky he made any money with that mouth and street b.s. He wants to be in the boardroom now like Jay, but not only would he have to change the 2 above factors – HE’LL NEED A STYLIST BADLY.
Congrats to all my BROTHERS that are making bank.
My only question is how is this goin to affect Mtv rap list for there greatest top 10?
Congrats to them all!
1. Jay-Z—–clothing line, shoes, his album, 40/40 club, etc etc

@44
Wow, i was thinking that too. Jayz and Diddy got years on 50 in the business, and yet he is right next to them, and who knows, next year…….I think that’s amazing for him to come on the scene and hit the ground running…..guess he’s telling the truth, “i get money, i get money, i run new york.
Guess if Diddy didn’t have to pay all that child support, and jayz didn’t have to pay all that damn hush money, maybe they could truly leave 50 in the dust….dumb fucks know how to make money, but can’t keep their pants zipped.
Why am I not as happy as everyone else :p
Okay, I’m not going to let my nephews see this because they’re going to get the impression that they can be millionaires, as well, by calling people bitches and hoes and getting shot about 2 million times..
Can Concreteloop post a list of black people on the Forbes list who are doing something a little bit more productive…Bankers?? Business Owners?? Brokers?? ANYBODY?!
Not to sound likea hater though because I know that’s what some will call me
I’m glad they out there gettin paper. Jay-z should probably go back into retirement-50′s babys momma is beyond greedy he better keep selling drama, Diddy needs to make a clothing line for older women so his mom can stop dressing likes she’s thin and 20 or get her a stylist that hates blond wigs n weaves. Why is Young Joc worth so much??
@ Bed-Stuy
NO HOMIE JAYS BEEN DOIN IT FOR 10 YEARS WITH THE START OF THE ROC IN THE 90′S AND 50 ‘S BEEN DOIN IT 4 4 YRS
BUT BIG UPS FOR BOTH OF THEM, I REALLY RESPECT AND LOOK UP TO BOTH OF THEM
Well admitting the problem #55 Michelle is atleast half the battle. You are a hater and u know it. So do something positve in ur life to change. You are responsible for giving ur kids, neices and nephews a full view of the many opportunites in life that can allow them to be comfortable. Not everyone will be a millionaire bcuz not all has what it takes.
Dont let the t.v. and internet raise ur kids. U still hold a responsibility too. The guys did what it took to suceed the way they knew how. If u choose to get it another way then just do it. I dont care to be apart of ur lil pitty party.
@55 cosign
stop hating on the fact the ppl like young joc, 50, jay and diddy is making money hate it or love it they earned, aint nobody gave them this, they worked hard for it, much respect to them all
to no. 25.
c’mon man, you said he has an effed up personality, you dont like his arrogance and attitude, fair enuff, nothin wrong with that, but since when did that mean he was retarded, maybe its the meaning of the word thats playing you, and yes that does make u a fool, look up the definitions of both words
