In 2013:
As far as net worth, Herb Alpert is the richest professional American musician alive at $750M (Michael Jackson's estate now has an estimated net worth of $1B), However, Alpert made his money not from playing the Trumpet, but by co-founding A&M Records. He's followed by Madonna at $650M. Since this question is posted in the Hip-Hop section, I'll shout out to #3, (P) Diddy at $580M, and #5 Jay-Z with $500M.
