Hip Hop's Richest star
P Diddy named richest hip-hop star
Los Angeles - P Diddy has been crowned the wealthiest artist in hip-hop for the second year in a row.
The Hello Good Morning rapper - who has an estimated fortune of £344m - once again beat Jay-Z (£287m) to claim the top spot in a list compiled by Forbes magazine.
The music mogul's wealth is fuelled by his Sean John clothing brand, Bad Boy Worldwide record label, vodka brand Ciroc - a joint venture with drinks brand Diageo, Enyce clothing and Blue Flame marketing.
Billionaire
Dr Dre retained the third place spot he took last year while fourth and fifth places on the list were filled by Bryan 'Birdman' Williams and 50 Cent respectively.
Cash Money Records founder Birdman insists he will soon become a billionaire but remained coy on whether his company will continue to work with partner Universal.
He told Forbes: "One of my motivations in life is to be a billionaire. We're going to keep working hard until we get our brand to be as big as possible. That's the goal in life, that's what I live for.
"Right now we are with Universal and we're just trying to do the best music possible. I'm loyal to my team, and to success. Whoever gives the most benefit to my team, which is first, and to its success, that's where we'll end up at."
Forbes Magazine's five wealthiest artists:
1. P Diddy
2. Jay-Z
3. Dr Dre
4. Bryan 'Birdman' Williams
5. 50 Cent

Man United still most valuable club!
Manchester United continue to top the Forbes list as the most valuable football club in the world - but Real Madrid are gaining ground.
United are also ranked as the most valuable team in any sport, worth 2.24billion US dollars (£1.4bn), 385million USD more than baseball's New York Yankees and the NFL's Dallas Cowboys.
Arsenal are fourth on the list, worth 1.29billion USD (£800m), behind Real Madrid (£1.17bn) and Barcelona (£1.07m) but just ahead of Bayern Munich (£770m).
The Forbes list ranks Chelsea in seventh place, worth £473m, and Liverpool eighth with a value of £385m.
United's huge global fanbase, estimated by Forbes to number 330million, has helped maintain the club's position at the top. However both Real Madrid and Barcelona have higher revenues than United, due in large part to the fact they have negotiated their own individual television rights deals for Spanish football.
The figures are also based on last year's financial results reflected United getting to the Champions League final.
This season Sir Alex Ferguson's side failed to make the knockout stage and their income from European football is expected to suffer a corresponding drop, especially in relation to Real Madrid and Barcelona who are both in the Champions League semi-finals.
Tottenham are 11th on the list, valued at £351m, and Manchester City 13th, worth £275m
