The list of richest New York musicians has not changed in quite some time. However, that doesn’t stop them from being worth close to $5 billion together. Here are the ten richest New York musicians, including both those born there and those who live there.1. Paul McCartney: $1.2 billionSir Paul splits his time between England and the Hamptons and has retained the top spot for quite some time. According to Observer, he:“recently inked a lucrative deal with Capitol Records for the entire body of post-Beatles music, from his 1970 McCartney album through his decade with Wings to the dozens of solo and collaborative works, including his share of the famed Ebony and Ivory duo with Stevie Wonder”.Plus, his still-active touring and new music composing activities definitely help.2. Sean Combs: $750 millionAlso known as “Puff Daddy”, “P. Diddy” and “Diddy”, Sean Combs is somewhat all over the place. As Observer points out:“One minute he’s donating a cool million to Howard University for a scholarship fund; the next he’s facing a late November court date for a 2011 incident in which he and two bodyguards are accused of punching, choking and attempting to rob a paparazzo in Miami Beach on New Year’s Eve 2011”.He also spends his time touring and kicking up a political fuss.
