The magazine reported the “Hard Knock Life” rapper, 48, had a net worth of $900 million, elevating his worth in the last 12 months by $90 million.

The increase came mostly from the rising value of his interests in Armand de Brignac champagne and D’Ussé cognac, as well as ownership stakes in Roc Nation and his Tidal music streaming service, according to Forbes. Diddy, also 48, is ranked second on the list with a net worth of $825 million. He also has major investments in liquor brands, including his DeLeon Tequila label, as well as his stake in Ciroc vodka.

Rapping legend Dr. Dre, 53, came in third with an estimated worth of $770 million, with Forbes reporting it’s due in large part to Apple’s $3 billion purchase of his Beats headphones in 2014.
