Forbes

Every year, Forbes releases a Hip-Hop Cash Kings list that includes the biggest money-earners in the genre. In 2014, they began doing a Hip-Hop Cash Princes list as well, predicting which up-and-comers will soon make their way into the Kings category. Any hip-hop act under age 30 as of March 31st is eligible for the list, as long as he or she hasn’t appeared on a previous Cash Kings or Princes list.

Curating the list this year were Atlantic Records exec Craig Kallman, hip-hop legend Lovebug Starski, radio personality Charlamagne Tha God, super-producer and Cash Princes alum Hit-Boy, along with three Forbes staffers. Find out which 10 rising stars they picked below!
