The deal hasn’t been made official yet, but Dr. Dre is well on his way to becoming Hip Hop’s first billionaire. The rapper/producer/entrepreneur is selling Beats by Dre to Apple for $3.2 Billion. A few weeks ago Forbes released it’s list of richest rappers, Dr. Dre was number two on that list with an estimated net-worth of $550 Million
Diddy – $700 million
Dr Dre –

Jay Z – $520 million
Birdman – $300
50cent – $100 million


            Forbes needs to amend that list, with the Apple acquisition Dre would need a whole new list with just him on it cos he is not on the same level with any of the others!

           Apple is “closing in” on what would be its largest ever acquisition, a potential $3.2 billion purchase of Beats Electronics. Beats is the popular high-end headphone maker founded in 2008 by Dr. Dre (currently number 2 on Forbes richest rappers list) and music producer Jimmy Iovine. Beats also operates a new streaming music service.
