In compiling this year’s list, the magazine takes into account factors such as upfront payments, profit sharing, backlogs, sponsorship and advertising revenue.

The American rapper has an estimated net worth of $185 million. He owes his money to some smart stock investments, a sizable tally of real estate, and lucrative sponsorship deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Mill Burger” chain) in Washington, a football team (the “Philadelphia Angels”), has launched his own brand of vodka (Pure Wondermill – USA) and is now trying to reach the younger demographic with its top-selling perfume line (With Love From Meek) and fashion line Seduction by Meek Mill.

The ranking is significant to many Meek fans, who have been waiting for what seemed like a lifetime for the rapper’s triumphant return.
