$620 million is the figure ‘Forbes‘ reports Dr. Dre generated in the last year, topping their list of the ‘World’s Most Highest-Paid Musicians of 2014.’
More on his beaucoup buck making empire below…
In forming this year’s list, we considered income from touring, recorded music, publishing, merchandise sales, endorsements and other ventures. Management, agent and attorney fees were not deducted. Earnings were calculated from June 2013 to June 2014 and based on data from Pollstar, the RIAA and Nielsen SoundScan, and on interviews with managers, lawyers, executives and some of the artists themselves.
After throwing all of the above into the financial mix, the business magazine concluded that the ‘Beats by Dre‘ mastermind had pulled in $620 million since the January of this year, beating efforts made by ‘Ring Off’ singer Beyonce, her husband Jay Z, ‘Bad Boy‘ Diddy and Roc Nation’s Rihanna, who made $48 million.
Did your favourite act make the list?

Years? It’s been a decade boo, lol.

Wait a minute, Mss Bieber made more money than One Direction and they are the ones who are doing more work than he is?
‘
Simon is stealing from these poor boys, Giving Pebbles/TLC tease. I now see how and why he relates to LA Reid.
SAM IS SO F****** SHADY!!!!!!! NOTICE HOW HE ONLY MENTIONED WHAT RIHJECT MADE COMPARED TO OTHERS…
David wrote this. . . Unless he pulled a
Beyoncé.
SHUT THE F*** UP! QUEEN RI, IS ONE OF THE HANDFUL OF WOMEN, IN THE TOP 30. ALSO,THE ONLY BLACK WOMAN BESIDES BEYONCE! NOT EVEN NICKI MADE IT! IT SEEMS TO ME, THAT YOU ARE THE R*****, B****! :-[
Notice his other fav Onika didn’t make the list.
wait until 2015 dumb ass after the tour and album.
She made lil Kim’s net worth in 2 hours please
This is old news man…
10 years in the game and R**** is still the weakest link
But Rihanna was on a break and still made more money than Gaga who is failing to fill arenas at half capacity.
JESSICA BIEBER WAS ALSO ON BREAK AND SHE STILL MADE MORE MONEY THAN RIHJECTION!!!!!!!!!!LOL
And they all made more money than you LMAO
THEY ALSO MADE MORE THAN U H**, THEN WHY ARE US TILL SO PRESSED ABOUT WHAT GAG IS MAKING. I’M SURE THOSE BOTSWANA GOVERNMENT CHECKS U RELY ON IS THE EQUIVALENT OF A DOLLAR IN THE US…..LOL
What Botswana government checks? Why am I entertaining someone who isn’t even smart enough to conduct a simple google search?
Dead at @LooseBottom discussing other peoples finances instead of his. Oh I forgot, the fagggg doesn’t even have a job, that’s why its perched on TGJ 24/7. @Surprise spilled the tea, the fagggg isn’t even from Africa’s biggest economy, its from Botswana. It lives in the bush in a mud hut. It travels 20km everyday to the nearest library for the free 1hr internet
Rihanna-48million lol
la struggle
^^Yonce (above troll)
‘
relies on government assistance, le broke b****.
U KNOW RIHJECTION CASH IS GOING TOWARDS BLUE IVY’S COLLEGE FUND!!!!!!!!!LOL
Aren’t you the one living in huts in Africa?
It should be going towards your education fund, maybe then you’ll learn some proper grammar.
I don’t live in South Africa or any part of Africa, I can AFFORD to travel there though, which I have.
‘
You obviously cannot seeing that your ignorance is showing, not everyone in Africa lives in mud huts. You have to be either paid, cultured or educated to know that.
WHY ARE U SO PRESSED!!!!!!!!!RIHJECT IS BASICALLY A WORKER BEE FOR THE CARTERS, AND SHE WILL BE THAT WAY FOR A LONG TIME…I BET JAY MADE THAT THOT SIGN A LIFETIME DEAL….LOL#BAJANCASHCOW #BLUEIVYCOLLEGEFUNDSSECURED
But unlike you, Rihanna is paid.
U ARE SPELLING BLUE IVY WRONG THO,DAT’S THE PERSON GETTING PAID FROM A S**** NAMED RIHJECT..
A s**** that makes millions of dollars, in the meantime, you’re still broke and trolling the internet. Your life has got so much meaning
U ARE THE BIGGEST TROLL ON THIS SITE AND ALWAYS ONE OF THE FIRST TO COMMENT, IT’S IKE U ALWAYS WAIT FOR ANYTHING BEYONCE RELATED AND JUST START SAYING HATEFUL THINGS TOWARDS HER… SOMETIMES I THINK MAYBE BEY F***** ONE OF UR CUSTOMERS THAT GETS U SO UPSET AND PRESSED AT HER..LOL OR MAYBE U ARE JUST A PURE AND SIMPLE “HATER”, NOTHING MORE TO IT.
First of all, Nigeria is Africa’s biggest economy
http://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21600685-nigerias-suddenly-supersized-economy-indeed-wonder-so-are-its-still-huge
‘
Secondly, people in Botswana enjoy a far superior and higher standard of living than that crime ridden grimy shithole you call a city. I mean if you were from Cape Town, you might have something to say, but you’re from JoLagosburg, you have no leg to stand on buddy.
‘
BTW, Botswana has got a higher per capita GDP than South Africa
BUT IT’S STILL UNDERDEVELOPED THO!!!!!!!!!U ARE SEETHING FOR THE GODS AND I’M GETTING MY LIFE FROM IT…LOL
What is underdeveloped is your education capacity, people from Nigeria know when and where to put caps.
I’M USING CAPS BECAUSE I WANT UR BUM INFECTED ASS TO GET THAT U ARE A LESSOR WITH NO POTENTIAL OF ADDING ANYTHING REASONABLE TO THIS WORLD(HENCE U LIVING IN BOTSWANA). U SPILL NOTHING BUT HATE…U ARE A VERY HATEFUL PERSON AND DESERVED WHATEVER HATE/DISLIKE U GET..WHAT GOES AROUND COME AROUND H**..
You’re using caps because you skipped out on your grammar lessons, admit it.
ACTUALLY I’M ABOUT TO GRADUATE WITH A LAW DEGREE IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS…H** ABOUT U H**???????
Ya, I’m sure that online degree will be of great use to you.
HAHAHAHAHA, FUNNY…JUST LIKE UR FAVE UR SHADE IS BORING AND OVERUSED.
The unstable lady gaga stan is here i see
SCREEEEAAMMMINNGGGGG… Everybody knows SA > Botswana. Nigeria only became the biggest economy this year, SA has been the biggest since civilization. And not u saying botswana is better than SA, is that why Botswana doesn’t have world-class infrastructure like SA? Is that why Botswana people live in mud huts amongst lions?
Rihanna cash going to blu ivys college >>>> lol never forget it bigbird
LB avi really fits him
HE IS SEETHING FOR THE GODS…IT IS PRESSED RIHJECTION IS WORKING FOR BLUE IVY..LOL
The one who should be pressed are the American taxpayers. How much of their taxes goes towards education, and you cannot even put it to good use? I now see why you think Beyonce’s money is your money, it isn’t boo
I DON’T THINK BEY’S MONEY IS MINE, I JUST APPRECIATE WHEN SOMEONE WORKS HARD AND EARNS HARD. UNLIKE RIHJECT WHO BASICALLY IS A S**** TO THE SYSTEM AND STILL WORKING FOR A 2 YEAR OLD GIRL EVEN AFTER ALMOST 10 YEARS IN THE GAME. #FACSTONLY
What contradiction is this? Here, let me help you out http://www.devry.edu/
At least people in Botswana can sleep with their door unlocked, same can’t be said about JoLagosBurg.
‘
And it doesn’t matter, you tried throwing that fake tea about Crime ridden South Africa being Africa’s biggest economy, I just clocked it.
U DID NOT CLOCK S***, U ARE STILL AN UNEMPLOYED THOT FROM AN UNDERDEVELOPED COUNTRY, AND U WILL REMAIN DAT WAY. GOD KNOWS IF U’RE ASS GETS TO THE US OR THE UK, THOSE EBOLA FIGHTERS WILL HAVE TO WORK OVERTIME!!!!LOL
There is no Ebola in Botswana, it’s there in the US though, recorded cases too. Oh wait, that is only stuff smart people know.
NO U ARE PROBABLY THE SOLE CARRIER..I WOULD ADVISE THE CUSTOMERS U SERVICE ON A DAILY BASIS(THOT BUSINESS) TO LOOK OUT. BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW THE HEAT FROM BOTSWANA IS CRAZY AND ONE WAY OF PASSING EBOLA IS THROUGH LIQUID SECRETIONS E.G SWEAT #TRUETEA
How can a botswana mud hut dweller come for SA tho? Lol. The bish can’t even go to university because Botswana doesn’t have one. Even it there was a university in his country, most students prefer studying in SA because SA universities are more superior! He is stuck in his mud hut because he can’t afford college fees. Lol, I’m sure he wishes he was Blue Ivy right now. Riherpes is slaving away so that blue will be able to go to college
Yes at everyone dragging Bitchbird
LMAO maybe the real reason SA universities accept people from Africa is because their own black people aren’t smart enough to go there, I mean what do you need to pass metric again? a 30%? What low standards.
Guh take your drunk, depressed, ebola infect ass to sleep and pray for better days sis. _/
LOOOOL
@LB You’re definitely the biggest joke on this site. @Surprise @Yonce & @CakeLikeFlopga are dragging you by the little edges you have. Too bad your puppets @Mark & @Molly. aren’t here to save you hahaha.
This dragging is hilarious
Im guessing sam didn’t make the cut for successful bloggers who made enough money to support their families since he keeps deleting our comments, lmao. Its ok I won’t ask how much u made again, haha!
Lol, you tried. The entrance requirements for SA universities is min 60%. The kii is managed to get it, got my degree and now working for a multi-national auditing firm, WHAT ABOUT YOU??? you couldn’t even get a 29% to pass. Or is it because your broke a** couldn’t afford it?
Yall needa leave sam alone
And u need to shut the f*** up, lol! Old possum lookin ass!
B**** stfu you dont know me ill whoop your ass. So like i said leave sam alone before we have problems.
Im curious as to how u could whoop someone’s ass over the Internet, lmfao! But anyways when you find out please let me know so I can reach over there and slap the hell out of u! Guh u at Mcdonalds clock back into work and have a nice day sis!

@Sam. HOW MUCH DID YOU MAKE?
Someone who went to school would know SA is not Africa’s biggest economy, your dumbass is showing babe.

IT’S ACTUALLY THE OTHER WAY ROUND, FAGGBIRD IS THE ONE DAT ALWAYS STARTS S*** BUT TODAY HE GOING TO GET DRAGGED FOR FILTH, AND I’M JUST STARTING WITH HIS STUPID ASS…
Guh be quiet!
LovelyBird is dragging again I see. *Yawns* nothing new here folks. We already knew he was rich as hell. #BoringPost
THAT H** IS NOT DRAGGING ANYONE, IT IS THE ONE GETTING DRAGGED FOR FILTH…
On the other hand, for someone who talks a lot of s***, I would like to know how much you made Sam?
I BET HE MADE MORE THAN RIHJECT THO!!!!!! AT LEAST HE IS NOT WORKING FOR A 2 YEAR OLD GIRL AND SPEND WHATEVER MONEY HE MAKES UNLIKE UR S**** FAVE!!!!!!!LOL
Just enough to get by!
Coming from a fatherless f** like yourself? Really? hahaha
Sams made enough how much you make African trash
Oh Sam, let’s not act like you’re not originally from Port Harcourt, keep it cute. Just use your real name instead of hiding behind “Lana lover”. Why are you so mad?
Im not sam dumbass but you guys really need to start respecting him more on his site.
@LB HOPE U’VE SIGNED UP FOR THIS……https://www.facebook.com/pages/Botswana-Family-Welfare-Association/275893025804336?sk=info&tab=page_info…IT’S CHRISTMAS SEASON AND U WILL NEED TO EAT SOMETHING, ALL THAT THOTTING AROUND WILL GET U NOTHING. LOL!!!!!! WHO ARE WE KIDDING U PROBABLY ALREADY HAVE A PREMIUM ACCOUNT..
This @Lana crack w**** is delusional! Something off about it, but don’t worry I just dragged the b****. Im done with the lesser, its not worth my time!
It’s so funny, all these people claiming they are in law school or studying for their LSATs and yet they have the time to obsess over my comments LOL.
‘
I have met people in law school and they wouldn’t have time for the amount of hours y’all clock in on this site. I guess that’s the difference between GOING to law school and LOGGING IN to law school.
‘
Goodluck with that online degree bud.
I HAVE TIME BECAUSE I AM ON BREAK H**!!!!!! U WOULD NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BREAK SINCE BOTSWANA’S ECONOMY DOES NOT PROVIDE FOR SLAVES TO HAVE ONE..LOL JUST DON’T FORGET TO SIGN UP FOR THIS, I’M ONLY LOOKING OUT FOR YOU….https://www.facebook.com/pages/Botswana-Family-Welfare-Association/275893025804336?sk=info&tab=page_info
You supposed to be in law school but typing in all caps …oh ok. :-\
LOL clocking yourself, just like you told me you work all the time, yet we always see you as TOP commenter. LOL
Bieber and 1D made more money than Rihanna. Think about that.
I KNOW RIGHT, I CAN UNDERSTAND ID MAKING MORE MONEY THAN RIHJECT BECAUSE THEY HAD AN ALBUM OUT AND WENT ON A MASSIVE STADIUM TOUR BUT JESSICA BIEBER ON THE OTHER HAND HAS NOT BEEN ACTIVE SINCE 2013 AND STILL MADE MORE MONEY THAN THE SUPPOSED “QUEEN OF THE WORLD” RIHJECTION FENTY….LOL
This post is so funny, i thought SA was the most developed country in black Africa.
As opposed to what, “White Africa,” you f*ckin racist sissy. This is why everyone hates your dorky f@gg0t ass here. You’re unnecessary and stupid as hell on top of that. You are the poster child for why brothers and sisters shouldn’t breed and why abortion should be kept legal.
HAHAHAAHAHHHAHA, FUNNIEST DRAG OF THE DAY!!!!!!!!!
@DTG
North Africa is white (caucasian), you don’t have to be “German looking” to be white like most Americans think, arabs are white, they just have an olive skin tone, you’re an ignorant, if you don’t know that.
Damn all that $$$$$ I hope he’s current IN ALL CHILD SUPPORT PAYMENTS!!
just like your dad missed your payment … do you even know yo dad sweetie?
I don’t see the point of counting, praising and dissing other people money.
Why not??? I mean, you count, diss, and praise other peoples accomplishments all the time. Their success is not your own. So what’s the “big” difference?
Yes I can, I’m the consumer, they’re trying to sell me a product. I can review and critique their work. Same with sports fans, same with film, same with video games. I will not sit here “Ohh, this artist made more money than that artsit. When will your fave” while I gotta pay rent next month. I don’t care about the money they make. But you’re a Pest, logic, understanding, self-respect and standard are not you guy’s strong point. You live through these artist, meanwhile your life is passing by.
WELL WELL WELL!!! IF IT IS ISN’T FAGGBIRD’S UNDERSTUDY….ANYWAYS U ARE KINDA LATE TO THE DRAG FEST HATEBIRD RECEIVED ON THIS POST TODAY.
Oh, so an artist earnings isnt a reflection of their work? At the end of the day, resorting to name calling and using profanity over SOMEONE ELSE’S achievements is not going to help YOU pay your rent or car note either…But then again, this is coming from someone would runs around insulting a two year old and calling her nappy headed all because they don’t like her mothers music. You want to talk about standards though right???
I see TwittterThugAnna taught you well #LikeFanLikeFave
You dragged LB, but you’re the one typing in all caps. #AngryMuch #Suprise #YouFailed
@MARK666(THE DEVIL’S ADVOCATE) I ALWAYS TYPE IN CAPS IT DOES NOT MEAN I AM PRESSED. NOW GO SIT SOMEWHERE AND WORRY ABOUT SOMEONE FINALLY MAKING A D******** MOVIE THAT IS ACTUALLY WELL MADE.
Who so angry? Lol. You’re telling me to go when you’re in MY reply box? I’m giving you a chance to walk away because LB already got you mad, I’ll have you rethinking your life (or lack of).
OH I SEE UR MASTER GOT DRAGGED SO FAR INTO THE GROUND HE WAS ABLE TO SAY HI TO RIHJECT’S DEAD GRANDMA, SO HE HAS NOW SENT U TO FIGHT HIS BATTLES!!!!!LOL….#SLAVEMASTERRELATIONSHIPREALNESS

Only if you Rotate on your dad’s d*** you first fagggy c.u.n.t cuum dumpster ho!
The streets are calling h**. Now go on…scurry along!
don’t you live in a cardboard box next to the welfare office? the irony kii
I never dissed mini Jay Z. If I did, it was pointing out the irony from one of you pest. I like Beyonce, but she’s not my god, you roaches can bow all ya want, I refuse.
You are TGJ FAMOUS for being a Rihanna stan. Yet, you want to accuse others of living through their faves. The last time I checked you weren’t Navy h*** werent on Rihanna’s payroll either. Oh, the irony of it all! LOLOL
*you Navy h***
LIES U AND UR MASTER ( HATEBIRD) HATE BEYONCE WITH A PASSION AND FOR NO REASON AND I CAN’T FIND A POST WHERE U AND UR SLAVEMASTER HAVE SAID ANYTHING POSITIVE ABOUT HER….LIES LIES LIES U ARE TELLING
Yea I don’t bounce around in the name of Beyoncé and her crappy music. I stated time and time again, I don’t stan, I’m a fan. Not only does pest act loke they’re on Beyoncé payroll, you guys think you are Beyonce. If you think she’s a great performer, great so
do I. But I’m not gonna act like she’s this amazing musical act, song writer, actor or business woman. Loke I said, comprehensive skills isn’t your strong point, so I’m not gonna try to save you
From your delusion. Live in it, drown in it for all I care.
Surprise!!!! You’re still mad. Lol
Right, because you obviously bounce around in the name of Rihanna. I still cant believe that you have the audacity to talk about anyone’s standards when you were just mocking a two year old the other day! All as an attempt to defend your scientific looking ass fave. And of all things, you called her nappy headed. Really though? Who the f*** are you to call anybody a pest, Uncle Tom???
I keep telling ya’ll bey and jay ain’t s*** just nothing but smoke and mirrors.
So the “Worlds Top 10 Richest Recording Artist” List, that they landed on (Right along with Dr. Dre), is all smoke and mirrors too right????
You shouldn’t be allowed to express your opinion publicly. Because you sound like a f****** moron.
Eat me …stay pressed boo
http://beautyxpose.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/beyanne.jpg
Yup! Bald an still beautiful. But considering the fact that you probably look like a mix between Rosie O’Donald and ODB…you should be the last one trying to come for anybody #ImJustSayin
@Mark111
I still cant believe that you have the audacity to talk about anyone’s standards when you were just mocking a two year old the other day! All as an attempt to defend your scientific looking ass fave. And of all things, you called her nappy headed. Really though? Who the f*** are you to call anybody a pest, Uncle Tom????
baby is nappy headed … her hair be did now so… get over it boo.
Ewww you sound like a docile field s****. Do better!
and yet your epic f****** self still pressed.
Yet, you still sound like you need to be Hooked On Phonix
damn that was fast you must live on here dead lol you need to stop… was you hitting the refresh button? talk about how i type all you want i don’t care, you don’t matter to me at all….i’m just having fun with you. you stans are like toys fun to play with until i get board. 🙂
B**** please! I KNOW YOU CARE
Don’t recall. And if so, it’s not your baby. So why are you mad? Don’t blame me for people being disappointed in the way mini Jay Z looks, blame her mother. Blame her mother for putting on a blonde wig, having a nose job and going the mile to full the world into thinking she’s a White woman and her baby came out with all the features she tried to hide. Not my problem.
Ooohhh, I get it. So on one hand you want to criticize Beyonce for wearing the same bleach blonde wig that YOUR FAVE has also worn and for supposedly having a nose…but on the other, you want to slander her for actually embracing her two year old daughter wear her natural afro hair.
What does Blue Ivy not being my child have to do with anything?
You’re ready to go full throttle on anyone who tries to come for Rihanna but when I try to defend a two year old its a problem? Where do your morals really lie.
*letting her
You are aware that you are in MY COMMENT SECTION right, R******?
Mark111 is a f****** hypocrite. One minute he’s criticizing Beyonce for “trying to look white” and the other he’s slandering her for letting her child embrace her natural hair.
You’re so stupid. Like I said, you pest lacks comprehensive skills.
This isn’t about these “pest” that you speak of, or Beyonce. Damn, you spend more valuable time and energy talking about Beyonce and the Hive than anybody. This about your ass, and your self righteous double standards.
You’re merely a key board warrior who gets gratification from talking making fun of peoples kids. You’re no better than anyone else. You’re pathetic.
Lol, ” I’m sorry, did I forget to leave a tip? How rude of me. “
Yeah, with all of the psychological guidance that you need…I should really start charging you by the hour #SoNastySoRude
Yessssss drag that scum bottom of the barrel beetlejuice looking troll. She will always be a lessor, that’s why she’s the top commenter on a beyonce obsessed site.
Thank You For DRAGGGGING MARK911 with his psychotic ass!
OOOOOOPPPPP. LMAOOOO
you fruit flies are sad beyonce has the most stupidest stan based ever lol
Stay in a h***. Your sole purpose is to suck, f***, and swallow. You’re not meant to be heard.
Yet you notice my comments everytime i make one k 🙂
*Scrolls through comments* Says the person who addressed ME FIRST. Hahaha you’re an idiot. Stop making a spectacle of yourself.
*place
Why is mark talking about a baby though? Trash tbh.
@Eat It Up
Aye, if I have Mark come and d*** you down will you shut the hell up? I’m just asking because I know its the only way that you h*** know how to function.
What was the purpose of this post? Why are the DumbHive mad? If it ain’t true then just move on, it’s not that serious. Congrats to everyone though, make that money
