Highest Paid Hip-Hop Artists 2006

Published on August 20, 2007 in Bar Chart, Celebrities, Forbes and Income - Individual. 1 Comment

Forbes has introduced a new ranking this year for Hip-Hop Cash Kings. I assume this means their Highest Paid Celebrities list is very popular since they are branching out into other subgenera. So what make someone a Hip-Hop Cash King? Sources of income include: running their own record labels; producing tracks and beats for other artists; endorsement deals; selling apparel, ringtones, video games and a line of fiction.

Forbes’ ranking of CEO pay includes the 12 women running a Forbes 500 company. Unlike the highest paid female executives graph I posted earlier this one is not necessarily the highest paid female CEOs just women who are CEOs of companies in the Forbes 500.

Highest Paid Female Executives in 2005

Fortune’s ranking of America’s leading businesswomen includes the top 10 ranked by pay. Unlike the men where 8 out of 10 of the highest-paid executives are CEOs, only 5 of the top 10 women are chief executives. Also the number 1 ranked woman (at 26.1 million) makes less than the 10th ranked man (48 million).

Highest Paid Dead Celebrities

I added 2 new graphs to my Swivel group Income and Wealth comparing the top 13 highest paid Dead Celebrities in 2006 vs the top 13 highest paid Dead Celebrities in 2001. Eight of the names on the list in 2001 will still be there in 2006, in part, due to their estates making money from their work and the rights to use their name and likenesses on merchandise and marketing campaigns.
