Business Week released this here chart about which of your favorite rappers are lying about their money and by how much. And boy do they make some accusations.
They’re basically calling Pitbull the biggest liar on the list, but they’re also kinda saying he has more money than most of the rappers outside of Diddy, Jay-Z and Dre. They’re making Pit’s “Billion Dollar” claim because he said the following lyric: “I see the future but live for the moment, make sense don’t it. Now make dollars, I mean
billions, I’m a genius, I mean brilliant”.
And Nas, damn, they got him going negative. Either way, a pretty funny list overall.
But you can’t really be too sure with the accuracy of this list and what is considered when putting together their “alleged” finances.
Fresh off of Jay-Z’s new album is the track Versus, on which he chides fellow hip-hop artists and their dubious tales of extraordinary wealth: “The truth in my verses, versus, your metaphors about what your net worth is.” Like Jay-Z, we’ve long been skeptical of just how wealthy some hip-hop stars claim to be, so we created a way to separate the truly rich from the loud-mouth lyricists.
Scroll over each bar in the chart below to compare specific lyrics with data from Forbes’s “Cash Kings of Hip Hop” and “Forbes Five” reports from the same year the given artist’s wealth-related rap song was released. You’re welcome, Hova.
