During a matrimonial ceremony the presiding minister always says ‘let no man put asunder’. Could the Billboard magazine be following the same phrase when it comes to Beyonce and Jay Z?
Jay and Bey shared the most powerful person’s title in the music industry on Billboard Magazine. They topped Billboard’s “Power 100″ list for 2014 beating out other industry heavyweights like Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge (2), Sony Music Entertainment CEO Doug Morris (6), and Interscope Geffen A&M Chairman Jimmy Iovine (10).
They both founded their own companies, Roc Nation(Jay Z) and Parkwood Entertainment(Beyonce).The Carters have long been considered a “power couple” with an estimated combined net worth close to $1 billion that’s approximately Ksh 86 billion.
Justin Bieber’s manager, Scooter Braun; music producer Dr. Luke; Spotify CEO Daniel Ek; recording executive Jimmy Iovine; and Ryan Seacrest also made the list.
