You may (or may not) be shocked to know who the top rappers with home studios are.
They say home is where the heart is, and so is the music — well, at least for the accomplished artists below. Believe it or not, some of the greatest bops were birthed right outside of their billion-dollar bedrooms.
Let’s see whose mansions are famous for mixing up today’s chart-topping beats.
Drake
If you didn’t know, Drake’s Ontario-built mega pad has been the subject of praise for years. The luxurious residence sits in the affluent Bridle Path neighborhood of Toronto. Canadian architect Ferris Rafauli designed the 50,000-square-foot palace — known as The Embassy.
The “Rich Baby Daddy” rhymer’s studio is located in the fancy abode’s basement, which happens to be decked out with custom recording equipment. Last year, Drake went viral after his studio was posted on Stufinder with a rental price of $250,000 an hour.
Polo G
At only 25 years old, Chicago rhymester Polo G is living large and lavish.
When G first laid eyes on his “California Dream” home, he had to pass it up due to having bad credit. However, with the right amount of hustle, it wasn’t long before he staked his claim.
Per his episode on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, the $15 million estate holds a personal studio with a beautiful mural of G’s childhood neighborhood and fallen homies, plaques, and more.
DDG
YouTuber/rapper DDG has a $3 million estate in California, which flaunts a theater, game room, sauna, and a recording studio.
According to the Michigan native, his brother put the studio together for him shortly after he moved in, but are you ready for the gag? He rarely uses it.
“I just got so addicted to going [away from home] to the studio,” he said on his YouTube channel. “Sometimes I forget, you know, the best songs are made at home. But I hate engineering myself. It’s very, very tedious.”
However, DDG did say that he has plans to get back to it.
Yung Bleu
Grammy-nominated rapper Yung Bleu has a massive resort-style facility crafted from the ground up. It includes a villa, bowling alley, pool, basketball court, and studio.
Bleu initially lived on the lot, marketed as Moon Boy University, but said he now uses it as a rental sector for other talent to book.
“All this stuff can be booked. Like, don’t nobody live here,” Bleu told influencer Buba100x earlier this year. “Labels and stuff, they come book it out for their artists. They come stay here.”

Boosie Badazz
Boosie Estates, which began construction in 2016, rests on 88 acres. With 13 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, Louisiana-born lyricist Boosie Badazz prides himself on designing and customizing the gorgeous castle from raw land.
In an interview with VladTV, Badazz recalled, “I was only two years home [from prison]. So, I didn’t have the money to build it all at once. I got the foundation, and I built it weekend-for-weekend.”
His spacious studio room boasts a black interior with black-and-red pictures of fellow musical greats (Tupac Shakur, Bob Marley, Whitney Houston) hanging from wall to wall.
