Nas — QueensBridge Venture Partners, HSTRY

The rapper hasn’t put out a new album lately, but he hasn’t paused his entrepreneurial career.

Nas’ venture-capital firm has backed major services like Dropbox and Lyft — which have a $10 billion and $5.5 billion valuation, respectively — along with Tilt, Casper, Virgin Mega, and more. Out of the 100 companies that pitch to QBVP each month, Nas’ partner Anthony Saleh told CNBC that the firm invests in about 20 a year, with a backing that ranges from $100,000 to $500,000 a company.

To pinpoint one interesting investment choice, Nas joined a $4 million investment deal with others for a startup that creates energy bars with cricket flour.

Nas also has his own clothing company called HSTRY, which came out with a special “Ghostbusters”-themed line in May.
