Forbes just released their list of highest paid musicians in the calendar year 2014, and not surprisingly rapper and business mogul Dr Dre tops the list by quite a margin.
What might be a little surprisingly is that the erstwhile Beats owner made a whopping $500 million dollars more than any other musician within the year in review, largely thanks to the sale of the same Beats brand to Apple for $3 billion.
Beyonce came in second, making $115 million. This is her biggest haul yet according to Forbes, yet that pales in significance to Dre’s haul.
