In news that is certainly not a surprise, Jay-Z is holding down the top spot of Forbes’ Top 20 earners in hip-hop. This list also marks the first time a female has been named—Nicki Minaj has so far racked in $6.5 million this year.

According to Forbes:

Fueled by the tail end of his Blueprint 3 Tour and a vast portfolio of business interests, Jay-Z barely edged second-ranked Diddy—who raked in $35 million, roughly half of that total coming from a lucrative partnership with Diageo’s Ciroc vodka—but handily topped West, who earned $16 million. The duo is steaming ahead with plans for co-headlining tour starting this fall.
