P. Diddy | $900 Million

Early on in his career, P. Diddy worked at Uptown Records as a talent director before establishing Bad Boy Records, his own record label, back in 1993. Diddy has produced and cultivated successful artists such as The Notorious B.I.G., Usher, and Mary J. Blige. His debut album, No Way Out, has been certified platinum seven times. This was then followed by several more albums like Forever, The Saga Continues…, and Press Play, all of which were commercially successful. Diddy then formed the musical group Dirty Money and released the commercially and critically successful Last Train to Paris album.

In 1998, the media mogul made investments in his clothing business called Sean John, which was nominated for the council of Fashion Designers of America award in 2000 for Menswear Designer of the Year. Diddy then added a men’s perfume called I Am King to the Sean John brand. In its advertisements, it featured model Bar Refaeli, and the fragrance was dedicated to Muhammad Ali, Martin Luther King Jr., and Barrack Obama. Today, his net worth is $900 million.
