Do Rappers Get Payed Too Much?

A recent study found in 2009 that rapper Lil Wayne made an astounding $23,365,245.32 from shows that year. He is the one that got the highest salary out of any rapper I researched. Do you think that he is making too much? He's making yearly salary near Yankees 3rd basemen A-rod. So if a famous baseball player gets payed that much doing something he loves, why not a rapper also?
