For the last decade, he’s been compiling a compound in Hidden Hills, a gated city in the San Fernando Valley where celebrities flock for privacy. He also owns a 50,000-square-foot showplace in his hometown of Toronto. For the last year, Drake has been scouring the Southern California real estate market for a new home, and it appears he has found one.
Nix the oven? A skinny fridge? Tips on designing a tiny kitchen in your ADU
Drake is such an indomitable force in rap that it takes a whole army of foes to join forces and make a coordinated effort just to attack him, and even then, he still finds a way to fire back against them all. Things are heating up between Drake and Rick Ross, as the two rappers continue to send direct shots at each other on social media. The back-and-forth was initiated by the latter’s April 15 “Champagne Moments” diss track, where Ross alleged the Canadian icon got a nose job and a BBL, called him a “white boy,” and more.

While people questioned the authenticity of the romance, one thing is for certain and that’s the rapper’s love of the film, directed by Sean Baker. Several years back, he was rumored to be on a date with a woman by the name of Bria Vinaite. In fact, the rapper and the actress were dining at the restaurant Sotto Sotto after the debut screening of what one website called a “highly-acclaimed movie” by the name of ‘The Florida Project’ at the Toronto International Film Festival.
But the centerpiece, as Drake himself has made clear, is that pool.
Make no mistake, Kendrick Lamar will respond to Drake—it’s just a matter of when. Nas waited three months after Jay-Z dropped “Takeover” in Sept. 2001 before he released “Ether” in December of that year. “Taylor Made Freestyle” is no “Back to Back,” but Drake has made it clear that he desperately wants Kendrick to respond to his jabs and keep the rap war going. He isn’t ducking any smoke from the rest of his opposition, either, so it sounds like the ball is in everyone else’s court now. Drake goes on to say that “Push Ups” only took him “an hour or two” to make and hints that his next diss track will “bring out the coward” in Kendrick.

Drake just made an insane chess move in his rap war with Kendrick Lamar by using artificial intelligence to pit two of Dot’s idols, Tupac and Snoop Dogg, against him. The recent exchange was initiated by the aforementioned “Champagne Moments” track, but that drop was sparked by “Like That,” Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar’s diss song aimed at Drake and J. Dot said his skills put him above the “Big 3,” talked down on “First Person Shooter,” and more. Ross also posted a video of him speaking on the 6 God’s “boring” pace of responses, taunting him about his “nose reduction” and “BBL,” and more. First and foremost you gotta admit you got your nose reduction and confess you got a BBL… just confess. When I came in the game, you had to move fast, drop a freestyle,” he said.
Drake is selling the ‘Yolo Estate,’ his Hidden Hills party compound
I don’t think it’s necessarily a precursor for things to come that aren’t already happening, but AI in hip-hop is too new (and the lines are still too muddy) for it to be used in this way without taking a minute to think of potentially nasty applications in the future. Yes, J. Cole loses points for apologizing for his diss at Kendrick Lamar and taking “7 Minute Drill” off of streaming. But even though Cole’s heart was never in the fight in the first place, his response to Kendrick’s “Like That” verse still out-paces some of the AI raps and self-indulging remixes that have followed it. The bars themselves are mild, and Cole says that he was “hesitant” to diss Kendrick on the track because he still “loves [his] brother.” It’s clear that he acted out of character by dropping “7 Minute Drill,” and while it’s not terrible, its lack of conviction is evident. He transforms the original Metro-produced beat by adding a choir of Inter Milan hooligans, in the same way that he did on his No. 1 song “Carnival,” which makes it feel like it could have soundtracked a blockbuster movie trailer. But sadly, it’s less like Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight and more like Marvel’s Ant-Man 3.

After AI Tupac and AI Snoop finish their verses, Drake comes in and lays an impressive verse himself, calling Dot a coward for not dropping yet. And he does it all over a beat that sounds like it could be found by searching “West Coast type beat” on YouTube (likely by design). According to DJ Akademiks, Drake allegedly wrote both of the verses for AI Tupac and AI Snoop Dogg, which would make sense given their sarcastic nature (and how similar their cadences are to his). There have already been half a dozen diss songs in the rap war between Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and more. During the song, Drake prominently uses vocals modulated through the use of artificial intelligence (AI) software to emulate the voices of legendary West Coast rappers Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg.
Inside Rapper Drake's Manor House in Hometown Toronto
The hip-hop star saved the best for last, as the residence known as the “Yolo Estate” is the most impressive of the three homes by far. He bought the Tudor-style house a decade ago for $7.7 million and transformed it into a full-fledged party compound complete with a mechanical bull, sand volleyball court and custom swimming pool with an 80-foot rock waterslide and secret grotto complete with TVs and a bar. Built over several years in the late 1990s, the nearly 25,000-square-foot mansion was first designed by KAA Design Group for Guess cofounder Armand Marciano, who opted for old world–esque, Mediterranean-themed interiors. English pop star Robbie Williams then bought the place in 2015 for $33 million, renovating it in a contemporary style. It’s unclear whether the Grammy Award–winning rapper made any changes to the property in the past year. If Drake gets his price, it’ll be Southern California’s most expensive home sale so far this year and a shot in the arm for L.A.’s lagging luxury real estate market, which has slowed significantly since Measure ULA went into effect in April, bringing a hefty transfer tax to L.A.

Kendrick rang the bell for the whole battle with his appearance on “Like That” and there still hasn’t been a moment that’s topped it (yet). With one explosive verse that shook up the entire rap landscape, Kendrick finally put an end to all of the pump-faking he and Drake had been engaging in since he last pushed the red button on “Control” a decade ago. What’s most impressive about “Like That,” though, beyond its sheer impact, is how effective Kendrick is in so few bars.
Drake’s six university residence halls each have their own traditions and personality. They all offer nicely furnished rooms, air conditioning, wireless internet, common areas, and kitchens. Never in the history of celebrity has anyone’s love life been so uninteresting. For all intents and purposes we are going to end this epic petty battle right now and say that, yes, he is considered a rapper.
He wastes no time to refute the Big 3 label, shit on Drake’s affinity for Michael Jackson with a clever bar about Prince, and make it clear that he wants all the smoke. Metro Boomin finding a way to say “fuck you” to Drake through the club-friendly production also helps make the case for “Like That,” a song that’s been sitting at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for three weeks. Drake has long been praised for his ability to diss rivals on hit songs that they have to hear in the club, so you know he’s seething now that someone did it to him. Kendrick managed to trigger an entire rap war off his first hand, so there’s no telling what else has up his sleeve. Rick Ross gets points in this rap war just for pulling an extremely Rick Ross kind of a move and responding to Drake’s “Push Ups” within a few hours of the track “leaking” online. On “Champagne Moments,” Ross plays the ghost of Christmas past, present, and future by bringing up old rumors of ghostwriting, making the internet question whether or not Drake got a nose job, and everything in between.
From what we understand there’s been a lot of debate on this ex-Degrassi star’s street cred — and with origins from a show like Degrassi and a nationality that is Canadian, it’s not too hard to understand why (haha we kid — Canadians are awesome). Measuring 18,000 sq ft, the home has seven bedrooms and 14 baths; a great room dressed in marble with views of the ocean; an atrium that opens from the roof to the lower floor; a chef’s kitchen with clean, minimalist lines; and a butler’s pantry. And its most pleasing attribute is the architectural design, which incorporates elements of nature and includes a meticulously designed courtyard with a 20-foot cascading water wall situated behind a 150-year-old Mediterranean olive tree shipped from Italy, according to the listing. In 2014, he revealed to Rolling Stone that he came across the property after searching for the world’s craziest residential pools. He bought the property for $7.7 million, which was a steal as the previous owner Larry Pollack had initially put it in the market for $27 million.
