Diddy Tops Forbes’ 2013 List of Highest-Paid Hip-Hop Artists

    
Diddy takes the top spot on the Forbes’ list of the highest-paid hip-hop artists and successfully dethrones another hip-hop mogul who’s best known these days for his headphones and album delays.

The Bad Boy leader took home a cool $50 million during the past year and as you might expect, the music side of his career was just a drop in the bucket of his revenue. Diddy also has his own clothing line (Sean John) and ad agency (Blue Flame) while serving as the brand ambassador for Ciroc vodka.
