#Kendrick Lamar Drops $8M On New Luxury Penthouse In Brooklyn

Kendrick Lamar has sealed the deal on a Brooklyn penthouse that now extends his residential flexibility from coast to coast.

On Friday (December 1), The New York Times reported that K-Dot has officially purchased a home in a 106-unit condominium located near the waterfront in Brooklyn Heights.

The Compton native reportedly paid $8.6 million for the New York City apartment after months of browsing in the metropolis. The 36-year-old MC’s new property totals 3,140 square feet across four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms.

Furthermore, it comes with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Big Apple’s most spectacular sites such as the Brooklyn Bridge, lower Manhattan, and the East River.

On a more humble scale, Scar Lip recently acquired her first piece of real estate as her career has continued to flourish since her breakout hit “This Is New York” dropped earlier this year. Taking to Instagram in early October, the Bronx native proudly showed off her new place while reflecting on her humble beginnings.

“I went from being in foster care system to now getting my first apartment,” she wrote. “this is my new home yall.” In the comments, she added: “ion gaf if my apartment small soon I’ll have a mansion shit takes time purrr.”

Among her many well-wishers were Busta Rhymes, Ginuwine, supermodel Naomi Campbell and more.

“Incredible young sis,” Busta wrote. “You are just getting started!! So proud of you and continue on your Blessed journey. We are with you Queen!!”

Ginuwine said: “You deserve it blessings and keep doing yah thing,” while Naomi added, “Congratulations @scar_lip can’t wait to see your journey unfold.”

Scar Lip has been on the rise all year. Back in May, she received a major co-sign when Snoop Dogg jumped on the remix of “This Is New York” and renamed it, “This Is Cali.” The collaboration came after the newcomer already received praise from fellow Bronx native, Cardi B, which left the her emotional.

Swizz Beatz even went so far as to compare the “Glizzy Gobbler” rapper to the late DMX.
