With his fingers in a wide range of money-making pies like his own record label, fashion line and vodka brand – it’s no wonder Diddy’s rolling in it.

And now the music mogul’s obscene wealth has been earned him the title of the world’s richest rapper!

With an estimated $475 million to his name, the ‘Dirty Money’ star has beaten out competition from the likes of fellow hip hop legends Jay-Z, Dr Dre and 50 Cent, to top the list compiled by Forbes magazine.



But despite his hefty worth, the hitmaker insists he’s still just as grounded as ever…

“I don't really get caught up into the list,” he tells MTV.

And for anyone thinking of hitting up the singer for a little extra pocket money – think again.

“I think people think that I have that money actually sitting at home in the basement.

"To everyone calling me for a loan today, I do not have that money today!"
