J. Prince, the CEO of Houston-based Rap-a-Lot Records, has an estimated net worth of $45 million. For two decades, the American businessman has strived hard to promote Houston's rap scene and rap artists. He is also working to promote underprivileged neighborhoods and communities.

This week, J. Prince has been under public scrutiny as well as his net worth when he released a recording of his alleged threats of vengeance to Diddy, Suge Knight, Lil Wayne and Birdman, TMZ revealed. The threats came amidst the intensifying feud between Prince's protégé, Drake and rapper Diddy.

"These n----s awaking a sleeping giant, let me put these bully n----s on notice," he said in the recording. "The weak sh-t from Puffy and Suge is on my radar. First of all Puffy, feeling like he can put his hands on my family, opens the doors for his family to be touched. You reap what you sow."

J. Prince, the philanthropic CEO who has a $45 million net worth as listed by The Richest, was apparently offended when Diddy slapped Drake outside a Miami nighclub on Dec. 7, Hollywood Life reported.

The recording, which seemed to be more of a rant than a song, was titled "Courtesy Call," Hollywood Take shared. The "cold-blooded" warning was recorded over a beat that started off with a Spanish guitar. Though it's still unclear if J. Prince will release the song, it surely did fuel up some controversy.

"And to Baby and Slim [referring to Lil Wayne and Birdman], I will not allow it to stay on my track record that Cash Money took anything from me and my son. Do right by me and pay every penny due." Prince continued, "And to Sugar Bear, on Lil Wayne's nut sack, N---a you know. I ride with Drake. So I accept any invitation you wanna bring. I'm your worst nightmare."

"If any of you clowns cross me or my family, bad news, gonna beat you home," he concluded the recording.

Drake's relationship with J. Prince, who has an estimated fortune of $45 million as Celebrity Net Worth disclosed, started when Prince's son, Jas, introduced Drake to Lil Wayne. According to MTV, Jas heard the unknown rapper's music on MySpace and quickly brought him into his inner circle.

Meanwhile, Drake, who J. Prince defended, seemed to be increasing his personal net worth value as he released an unexpected album titled "If You're Reading This It's Too Late" via Twitter. As The Verge cited, the track is composed of 17 tracks, featuring collaborations from Lil Wayne, Travi$ Scott, and PartyNextDoor.
