The Power Players

Revolt TV published “Unlocking The Holy Grail: Timbaland” the day before the release of Jay-Z’s album "Magna Carter Holy Grail" (Which Timbo claims is Jay-Z’s best album). In this interview, Timbaland was asked about Jay-Z’s status in the industry. Timbaland let the public know Jay-Z is at the top, soon him and Jay-Z will be able to say, “we can control our records…we don’t have to talk to none of these people, we are the people…now the money is much better because we own it.” 
But Jay-Z’s status isn’t just coming from the music industry.

So who are the power players in the music biz? Timbaland, Pharrell, Kayne, Diddy, and Jay-Z. But lets focus on the kings…Sean Combs and Sean Carter, Why?, Because they have empires.

Both topped the The Forbes Five: Hip-Hop’s Wealthiest Artist every year since 2007, but now there is a question of who will reach billionaire status first. These two have built an empire within the entertainment industry as a whole. Just this year, Jay-Z went from owning a portion of the Brookland Nets to establishing Roca Nation Sports, while Diddy is building his TV network, REVOLT TV but still gaining most of his profit from Ciroc. 

Their next move better be their best move! 


Which one of these bosses do you think will be a billionaire first?
