Drake buys neighbour’s house for $3 million

Drake has bought his neighbour’s house for almost $3 million.

The 29-year-old rapper faced complaints from his neighbour over how loudly he played his music, but instead of offering to turn it down, the ‘One Dance’ hitmaker has instead purchased the Hidden Hills home for $2.85 million.

With four bedrooms and five bathrooms, the new pad is smaller than the ‘Hotline Bling’ musician’s main home – which he bought in 2012 for $7.7 million – which boasts a whopping seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms. The house next door, however, is decked out with room for horses, should Drake decide to take up a new hobby.

And he’s not the first celebrity to have bought the house next door to his own, as Kylie Jenner reportedly did the same thing back in August. She paid $4.5 million on a second home – also in the Hidden Hills neighbourhood – next door to the $6 million one she bought in May.

What’s weirder, is that Drake actually predicted this would happen when he featured on fellow rapper Future’s 2015 track ‘Where Ya At?’ and sang the lyric "I’ll buy the neighbour’s house if they complain about the noise". He’s true to his word, as he’s done exactly that.

It’s unclear how Drake will use his new pad, but he could well use it to house his on/off girlfriend Rihanna, who he gushed over at his concert on Saturday (10.09.16). He called the superstar "incredible, beautiful and talented."

As the pair hugged on stage, he said: "I pray that you find somebody that holds you down like this woman right here."
