Apple revealed its new iPod line, and wow are they pretty damn amazing. The new iPod touch brings you the sexy iPod touchscreen experience of the iPhone and comes armed with wi-fi. The regular iPod has been made smaller and renamed the iPod classic and gets a whopping 160 gig hard drive, which is a pretty good sized external hard drive itself.

A recent Forbes article Hip Hop Cash Kings lists the top 20 earners in hip hop. The expected main stream stars like Jay-Z and 50 cent topped the list with $34 and $32 million respectively, but eight producers are holding it down in the top 20.

  • #4 Timbaland $21 million
  • #5 Dr. Dre $20 million
  • #8 Kanye West $17 million
  • #9 Pharrell Williams $17 million
  • #10 Scott Storch $17 million
  • #14 Lil Jon $14 million
  • #16 Jermaine Dupri $12 million
  • #17 Swizz Beats $12 million

Producers are beginning to gain significant exposure and more share of the fame and fortune from the artists they work with.
