The Jesus Walks rapper, whose net worth is N738 billion according to Forbes, has splurged N23.5 billion on a new home in Malibu.
According to TMZ, the house on the beach is rare, having been designed by a top Japanese architect.
The house in Malibu, California, was put on sale in 2020 for $75 million, but the Yeezy founder seems to have gotten a pretty great deal.

The unique house, described as a piece of art, resembles a military bunker built with lots of concrete and reinforced steel.
The four-bedroom house overlooks the Pacific Ocean and is 30 minutes away from the Hidden Hills house he built with Kim Kardashian. His estranged wife and their kids still live on the property.
Aside from his latest acquisition, Kanye owns a ranch in Wyoming and his childhood home in Chicago.
Kanye and Irina Shayk
Kanye and Kim filed for divorce in February after his failed presidential bid. The two have four children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
In June, Kanye was spotted with Russian supermodel Irina Shayk in France during his birthday celebrations.
Paparazzi spotted them taking a walk together as he celebrated his 44th birthday, sparking rumours that they were dating.
While Kanye and Shayk enjoyed his birthday in Paris, Kim shared a photo with him and their children aboard a plane, saying she would love him forever.
Before being spotted together, Shayk and Kanye had worked together on his fashion business, and she once dated Cristiano Ronaldo.
