Diddy Responds 2 being The Richest Man In Hip Hop

The other day Forbes Magazine released their top 5 richest hip hop artists list and many people were surprised.

Diddy again was at the top of the list. He recently spoke to MTV and had this to say...
  
"To be honest, on that list, I was on the cover of Forbes back in '98.

I been on that list. I don't really get caught up into the list. I think people think that I have that money actually sitting at home in the basement.

It's really like if I sold all my companies. I take pride in building something as a black man that's worth that much. To everyone calling me for a loan today, I do not have that money today! It helps inspire people and it shows the power of hip-hop".

Here is the list in case you did not see...

Sean "Diddy" Combs $475 million
Jay-Z $450 million
Dr. Dre $125 million
Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson $100 million
Bryan "Birdman" Williams at $100 million.
