Kendrick Lamar is reportedly shelling out a cool $40 million to purchase a mansion in Los Angeles.

The former TDE rapper and his family will be moving to Brentwood, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal on Friday (May 17).

The seller is a trust tied to Viet Dinh and his wife, Jennifer Ashworth Dinh.

Viet Dinh is the former chief legal and policy officer at Fox Corp., where he built the poorly executed maneuever that resulted in a massive settlement agreement in favor of Dominion Voting Systems.

The farmhouse-style home includes nine bedrooms and 15 bathrooms. Amenities include a wine cellar, gym, media room, spa and an elevator. There is also a swimming pool and 925-square-foot guest house.

K.Dot will be able to afford the massive bill thanks at least in part to his feud with Drake, which boosted both his legacy and his bank account.

The Compton rapper currently has four songs in the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100, with “Not Like Us” sitting atop the chart.

According to HITS Daily Double, the Mustard-produced banger has generated over $275,000 in the last week alone. The vast majority of this figure comes from the song’s 58.7 million streams, while it has also earned just over $13,500 from 15,000 sales.

“Euphoria” sits at number three on the chart and has made over $210,000 in the last seven days after racking up more than 45 million streams and 7,500 sales.

Kendrick has two other entries in the top 20, including his initial Drake diss track “Like That” with Future and Metro Boomin. That song has generated almost $135,000 from nearly 30 million streams and over 3,000 sales in the last week, but that money, of course, will be shared between more parties.

“Meet the Grahams,” which is number 12, has generated an additional $98,000 thanks to more than 20 million streams and almost 7,000 sales.

In total, Kendrick’s spate of diss songs has generated over $725,000 in the last week, although it’s unclear how much of that goes directly into his pocket.

For comparison, Drake’s “Family Matters” and “Push Ups” have earned over $200,000 in the last seven days.

Kendrick Lamar has seen a huge uptick in streams and sales since his feud with Drake erupted.

All of his albums currently sit on the Billboard 200 and all have enjoyed huge climbs due to an increased interest in the rapper’s catalog.

DAMN. occupies highest spot at number 18, up from number 41 the week before.

good kid, m.A.A.d city, which is the longest-running Hip Hop studio album on the Billboard 200, is currently number 23 after being the 51st best-selling album last week.

Kendrick’s most recent effort, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, has also enjoyed a huge climb, rising to number 55 from number 192.

To Pimp a Butterfly also reentered this week’s chart at number 109 after previously falling out of the top 200.
