Just ask will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas, who recently secured a second job with Intel to stay afloat. Some have had to make significant cutbacks, like reducing their bling budget from $60,000 to a puny $15,000, wearing knockoff apparel, and making it rain with Washingtons instead of Franklins.

Company: Cristal
Position: Hood Wine Connoisseur
Jay-Z dissed Cristal after champagne boss Frédéric Rouzaud went out of his way to insult the rapper's fondness for Cristal. N.O.R.E., a self-proclaimed hood wine connoisseur, could help Cristal regain popularity in the hip-hop community. Plus, he understands the importance of proper wine selection.
"Women respond perfectly to wine," N.O.R.E. says, "If you give them vodka, they know you're just trying to hump them."
4. Common

Company: Crochet Clothing
Position: Head Knitter in Charge
Common has always been the butt of hip-hop jokes for wearing crocheted pants. To his credit, these trousers offer the benefit of supplying ample ventilation to your holy parts. If Common really wants to stick it to the mudslingers, then he should go ahead and embrace crocheted pants completely.
He could earn extra cash by launching his own line of clothing specializing in crochet pants, crochet boxers, and crochet thongs.
