"A young boy from Harlem, I couldn't even be a waiter. They didn't want me to be a waiter, so you know what I did? I became a billionaire."
Diddy took to the internet to announce that he has become Hip-Hop's first billionaire. Diddy has an impressive body of work in terms of his companies, with Ciroc Vodka, Bad Boy Records (now partnered with Epic Records), Revolt TV, Sean John, and AQUAhydrate all doing well. Puffy also makes sure he gives back, recently opening a charter school in Harlem. Dr. Dre comes in second with a cool 700 million and HOV in third with about 610 million. Watch the video here! Any thoughts?
Diddy recently topped Forbes' list for top earners in hip hop (something he's getting used to doing by this point), and thus sat down with the people at Forbes to discuss his business model, how much he has in the bank, and his potential to become rap's first billionaire.
When asked if he felt he would become the first rapper to hit the 9 figure mark, Puff said he couldn't be sure, but stressed that he would remain humble no matter the outcome. "I can't deny how humbling... how proud I am to be from Harlem, New York, to be from the inner-city and be on the Forbes list," he said. "But it doesn't define me-- whether I become a billionaire, or whatever my status is."
He also made sure to clear the air that the numbers Forbes reports him to have are not reflective of what he has in the bank, and more likely have to do with his assets. "First of all I do want to say to the Forbes cameras, I'm going to tell you that I don't have that money in the bank." he said, half-jokingly. "I want to make sure y’all are clear on that. I have no problem with saying that. If that pushes me down on the list, I’m okay with that.”
Requests made by the defense of notorious drug lordJoaquin "El Chapo" Guzman were batted down by the judge overseeing his second hearing at a federal court in Brooklyn on Friday, February 3. Attorneys representing Guzman argued that his prison conditions have been "too restrictive," with them citing that he has been ordered to remain locked in a cell for 23 hours out of the day. "He's only permitted out for limited members of our office and one hour of exercise a day — it's extremely restrictive," public defender Michelle Gelernt said while advocating for a lightening on the restrictions. But Judge Brian Cogan wasn't sympathetic to his plight.
"They're taking extra security measures. I think we all know the reasons for that," Cogan said. His statement was in reference to El Chapo's reputation for escaping prison, a feat he's famously pulled off from maximum security institutions twice before.
El Chapo now also faces pressure to speed up the process of acquiring the services of a private lawyer, after Cogan ordered him to disclose his financial status. The Mexican kingpin has faced questions as to why he is receiving the counsel of public defenders when his fortune has been assessed well into the billions. Prosecutors from the Eastern District of New York cited the success of his Sinaloa Cartel, a report by Forbes Magazine, and the U.S. government's $14 million suit against him as evidence that he can afford a lawyer, in a letter delivered to Cogan last week. However, Gelernt insists on his behalf, that El Chapo Guzman "has no ability to hire a lawyer" because for the time being the restrictions placed upon him prevent him from being in contact with family and associates who might be able to extend him access to funds.
For the time being Cogan has ruled that Guzman may continue to receive the services of a public defender, but must submit an affidavit making a case for why he currently needs one.

Forbes is back with their Hip-Hop Cash Kings list, and for the second consecutive year, Diddy reigns supreme. The hip-hop mogul sits atop the list, raking in a cool $62 million over the past year. Much of the money isn't from music, but rather his very lucrative Ciroc vodka deal and other ventures. However, he hasn't let the stage entirely as his Bad Boy Reunion Tour runs through the fall.
(The Wrap-Up Magazine) Forbes published it’s annual retiree rankings today, but aptly followed it up with a piece breaking down how MJ will make more than the likes of LeBron James and Kobe Bryant or even Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo — despite the fact that he stepped away from the hardwood 13 years ago.The Swoosh imprint made $3 billion USD in shoe sales last year in the U.S. alone — resulting in roughly $100 USD million for MJ, which is more than he made in salary ($94 million USD) during his entire 15-year playing career.

MJ’s empire even includes seven restaurants and a car dealership.
