    Crazy that Hov made almost Drake and Eminem’s entire net worth in a year

    There’s not a lot of money in selling music, after royalties for producers/writers/samples, and after the label takes their share there’s barely anything left for the artist. I guess most of their money comes from tours and neither Drake or Em are out touring all the time. Once every couple years or so. Neither of them have the business interests that Jay, Puff and Dre do.
