A few names in the music industry made their way onto the annual Forbes'Highest Paid Celebrities list for 2017. 

The Weeknd made this year's list at number 6, bringing in around $92 million; due in large part to receiving a tour advance of $75 million. Drake cracked the top 5 coming in fourth with $94 million, surpassing soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.

However no one could come close to the top two spots on the list, as Beyoncé came in 2nd at $105 million, while P. Diddy reigned supreme at $130 million pretax. According to Forbes a large sum of Diddy's income this year came from the partial sell of his clothing line Sean John which earned him around $70 million. Check out the full list here
