Just a couple of months following his pardon by Donald Trump, rapper Lil Wayne splurged $30 million on a newly constructed Los Angeles mansion. Situated adjacent to Kylie Jenner in Hidden Hills, this luxurious residence boasts seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms, with construction completed in 2019. Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., finalized the purchase on March 17. This move follows Wayne’s 2020 clemency, granted after he pleaded guilty to a federal firearms charge filed by the US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida in December 2020. The charge stemmed from his arrest the previous year for possessing a loaded handgun while traveling on his private jet from California.

Spanning over 12,100 square feet and situated on 3 acres of land, the property consists of the main house and a guesthouse.
Lil Wayne bought a $15.4 Hidden Hills mansion just two months after Donald Trump granted him clemency for gun possession charges.
Wayne’s new neighborhood in the upscale, guard-gated San Fernando Valley enclave is home to the likes of Drake, Lori Loughlin, Jessica Simpson, John Stamos and other members of the Kardashian clan.
Features of the home include a sun-drenched open floor plan with a two-story entry, a chef’s kitchen with two large islands, professional-quality stainless steel appliances and an expansive breakfast room. They all open to the family/great room with sliding walls of glass, plus free-flowing living and dining rooms, according to the listing.

Wayne earlier this month shot down rumors that he had married model girlfriend Denise Bidot after cryptically teasing his apparent “forever” love for her in a Twitter post this spring.
The two had previously spent most of quarantine in a rented Hollywood Hills mansion.
In a song titled “Dreams” from his latest 2020 album, “Funeral,” Wayne rapped: “I had a dream/I was a fool/No mansion or no pool/I woke up and I screamed/Thank God it was just a dream.”
Don’t worry, Wayne — you got your mansion and it clearly was just a dream.
