'Forbes' Lists the <br />5 Richest Rappers of 2019 Drake took the 5th spot <br />with his $150 million fortune. Kanye West came in 4th place with his<br />$240 million fortune. Diddy has claimed the <br />No. 3 spot with $740 million. Dr. Dre is No. 2 with $800 million. And coming in at No.1 <br />is Jay-Z, the first rapper <br />to become a billionaire. 'Forbes' predicts Diddy could very well <br />become rap's next billionaire with the <br />help of his vodka brand, Ciroc. And although Drake is at No. 5, he's the <br />youngest on the list and "quickly gaining <br />ground on hip-hop's elder statesmen."
