Interesting. The top part of the list was pretty much a cert; however, who knew Chamillionaire had it like that…Lil’ Jon for that matter too.
IM SO HAITIN ON ALL THEM…LOL
NEW LAYOUT!!! I love it, Sam. The best part is Rihanna (lol).
How 50 cent make $150 million this year??? I’ve hardly seen him or Eminem? Interesting! I guess you dont have to be seen to still be making money! 50 cent needs to write a book. That dude is a hustla forreal!
Can you look at my blog? htpp://charles-david.b*******.com
I find it surprising that some of the people on the list haven’t even done much this past year yet they’re still rollin’ in money. I’m in the wrong industry.
P.S. I like the new layout.
They make me sick.. lol
I love the new layout, Sam…
I like the layout Sam but I wanted to see Alicia Keys! lol I still like it though.
Chamillionaire is a hustler for real! i don’t remember him having anything out and he’s not even a big time rapper!!…but still manage to make 10 million a year!! ohh i love the new layout!!!
You’ve put rihanna in the banner…
yet in every post you make on her you manage to cast a negative slur either saying shes ugly or can’t sing and then you feature her as an artist in “your” website banner lol
sam your an absolute c*** and don’t make any sense at all you’ve just completely contradicted everything you have previously said.
in the words of rihanna sam
“you look so dumb right now”
Love the new layout. How some of these rappers make all that money with the way the industry is right now? Is this a old list? I really don’t get it.

W.O.W.
Kasseem, Jayceon and Alianue? WTF? No wonder these rappers are thuggish. It had to start when they learned to walk, so they could defend themselves when kids in the playground laughed at those names!
um where’s bow wow??? he has 50 million.
Nice layout…i like the colors on the message board…I wonder why people constantly diss you SAM and constantly visit your site…if they don’t like your crazy opinions on watever it might be…maybe they shouldn’t come to your site and diss you, that’s jacked up!! This is YOUR site, notice I said YOUR site, you keep doing what you do and ignore the meanies!
Didnt 50cent say he was gonna quit the music biz if he didnt make the top of this list ahead of kanye ?
