Rapper Kanye West has put his $57 million Malibu mansion on the market for $53 million, citing his displeasure with the wall colors as the reason. The 4,000-square-foot property with a sea view, purchased in 2021, is still undergoing renovations. Kanye reportedly prefers warmer earthy tones but was disappointed with the cadet gray shade that the concrete settled into.
The source mentioned that Kanye, known for his distinct taste, initially tolerated the color during sunrise and sunset visits but eventually stopped going altogether. In a legal twist, his former contractor, Tony Saxon, filed a lawsuit for labor code violations, unpaid wages exceeding $1 million, and damages.
Saxon, who worked extensively on the mansion, claimed Kanye’s vision included a self-sufficient house with a 1900s bomb shelter aesthetic, devoid of electricity.
In an NBC interview, Saxon revealed Kanye’s preference for an open and dark ambiance, showcasing the rapper’s unique approach to luxury real estate. The news adds another unconventional twist to Kanye West’s ongoing ventures in the world of high-end properties.
