Kendrick Lamar Set to Purchase $40M Los Angeles Mansion
Kendrick Lamar is reportedly on the verge of acquiring a $40 million mansion in Los Angeles, marking a significant move for the acclaimed rapper and his family to the upscale neighbourhood of Brentwood. This news was confirmed by The Wall Street Journal on Friday (May 17).
The property is being sold by a trust associated with Viet Dinh, the former chief legal and policy officer at Fox Corp., and his wife, Jennifer Ashworth Dinh. Dinh is notably recognized for orchestrating a controversial strategy that led to a substantial settlement with Dominion Voting Systems.
The luxurious farmhouse-style mansion boasts nine bedrooms and 15 bathrooms, featuring an array of amenities including a wine cellar, gym, media room, spa, and an elevator. Additionally, the estate includes a swimming pool and a 925-square-foot guest house.
Lamar’s financial ability to make such a significant purchase is bolstered by his recent musical successes. His ongoing feud with Drake has notably enhanced his legacy and revenue streams. Currently, Lamar has four songs in the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100, with “Not Like Us” claiming the top spot.
According to HITS Daily Double, “Not Like Us” has generated over $275,000 in the past week, primarily from its 58.7 million streams. Another hit, “Euphoria,” holds the number three spot, earning over $210,000 from 45 million streams and 7,500 sales. Lamar’s other entries, including the Drake diss track “Like That” and “Meet the Grahams,” have also contributed significantly to his recent earnings.
Overall, Lamar’s recent releases have brought in over $725,000 in the last week alone, reflecting a surge in interest and profitability since his feud with Drake began. This boost in streams and sales has also propelled all of his albums back onto the Billboard 200, with DAMN. reaching as high as number 18 from its previous position at number 41.
Kendrick Lamar’s impressive financial gains and continuous chart success have undoubtedly played a role in enabling his forthcoming acquisition of the stunning Brentwood mansion.
