10. Eminem: $18 million Though he doesn’t have nearly as many business ventures as the bulk of his fellow Cash Kings, Eminem claims a spot in the Top 10 thanks to healthy back catalogue sales and a handful of lucrative tour dates during our scoring period. Look for an even bigger payday next year when his Monster Tour with Rihanna gets added to the books.

1. Dr. Dre: $620 million Thanks to Apple's Beats buyout, Dre had the highest yearly earnings total of any musician ever evaluated by FORBES. The $620 million sum is also more than the remaining 24 names on the Hip-Hop Cash Kings list—combined. Perhaps now the superproducer will have time to finally finish long-awaited album Detox.
