Kendrick Lamar had the entire Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on its feet with his epic 2025 Super Bowl LIX Half Time Show on Sunday night.
The 22-time Grammy Award-winning rapper captivated viewers with his electrifying performance, prowling the stage with an army of dancers, singing his hit All The Stars with SZA and inviting Serena Williams to do the Crip Walk midway through his set.
Beyond his musical achievements, the Not Like Us rapper has invested a significant portion of his reported $140 million net worth into real estate, amassing a diverse property portfolio worlds away from his humble childhood in Compton.

Kickstarting his journey on the property ladder, Kendrick made his first real estate investment in 2013, purchasing a 3,500-square-foot residence in Eastvale for $523,400.
The home was reportedly bought for his family after being born and raised in Compton, a city with one of the highest crime rates in America.
According to Architectural Digest, the home features four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and amenities such as a three-car garage, swimming pool, BBQ station, and spa.

In 2018, Kendrick flocked to Calabasas, investing $2.65 million in a 5,400-square-foot mansion. The six-bedroom, six-bathroom home was a major upgrade from his first purchase, with the rapper’s home neighbouring the likes of Kim Kardashian, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, and Miley Cyrus.
The outdoor space was the ultimate sanctuary, including an inground pool, jacuzzi, a marble bar and grilling station, per House Beautiful.

In 2024, the father-of-two made a significant investment by acquiring a $42 million compound in Brentwood. Clearly bought with his family in mind, the home’s standout feature is a sprawling 16,200-square-foot modern farmhouse, which shares its plot with another smaller home, likely serving as a guesthouse.
The father-of-two is notoriously private about his family life, choosing only to release his children’s names via lyrics in his music, and keeping them largely out of the spotlight.
