Kendrick Makes Major Money Moves
According to The Wall Street Journal, the award-winning rapper has signed a deal to pay more than $40 million for a home in Brentwood, Los Angeles. If the deal closes, it will be among the highest in Los Angeles this year. The property includes eight bedrooms, a wine cellar, a gym, pool and a guest house.
Per the outlet, the seller of the luxurious Brentwood estate is a trust tied to Viet Dinh and his wife, Jennifer Ainsworth Dinh. Viet Dinh is a former chief legal and policy officer at Fox Corp. According to property records, Viet Dinh and his wife initially paid $19.5 million for the Brentwood house in 2019.
The Kendrick Vs. Drake Rap Battle
Lamar has remained in headlines throughout recent weeks due to his ongoing rap beef with Drake. The hip-hop stars have continuously engaged in a rap battle that led to the release of several diss tracks.
The dispute seemingly kicked off when Kendrick took shots at Drake on Metro Boomin and Future’s single, ‘Like That.’ The song is featured on Future and Metro’s joint album, ‘WE DON’T TRUST YOU.’ Drake then responded to Kendrick’s remarks with his own single, ‘Push Ups.’ Kendrick immediately clapped back by releasing a 6-minute track titled, ‘Euphoria.’
Before Drake could even react to ‘Euphoria,’ Kendrick dropped another track titled, ‘6:16 in LA.’ Drake followed up with his ‘Taylor Made Freestyle,’ that used AI to include Snoop Dogg and Tupac Shakur’s voices. The back and forth continued as Drake released ‘Family Matters’ that same day.
Kendrick responded to Drake’s ‘Family Matters’ with ‘Meet The Grahams’ and ‘Not Like Us’ within hours of each other. Drake appeared to be ending the feud with his single, ‘The Heart Part 6,’ which references Kendrick’s 2022 single, ‘The Heart Part 5.’
