A Tour Through 50 Cent’s Mansion Glow-Up, From His First to His Current

The New York rapper doesn’t miss with his music or his interior design.

New York rapper 50 Cent has come a long way from the financial battle keeping up with his first mansion in Connecticut — that was the size of a small theme park. Since he’s downsized, he still has the sleek yet flashy taste in decor.

Trump’s Tariffs Might Stick Around. What Should We Buy Now?

Upon taking a tour through any of the rapper’s homes, you will more than likely find art he picked out himself, amenities fit for a king and gorgeous architecture. His latest home, in a currently unknown location, features a curated black-and-white theme while also including a game room, Asian-inspired decor and a wall of his famous movies and TV shows.

Thanks to Architectural Digest, take a look at 50 Cent’s mansion glow-up below:

Formerly owned by Mike Tyson, the 17-acre mansion wasn’t just a home but also the party spot for the rapper’s associates. Literally, he had a club built into the mansion. Aside from that, the mansion holds a host of 19 bedrooms, 25 bathrooms, a gym, basketball court, movie theater and more, per Architectural Digest. The spot sold for $2.9 million – about $2 million less of what he bought it for – in 2019.

Newest Property

In an interview with Us Weekly, the rap star showed of his newest, sleek purchase featuring a prominent black-and-white color scheme, samurai statues and tons of impressive art curated by the rapper himself. The home features a presidential-looking office, wine cellar and spa featuring a sauna, cold plunge and indoor pool. His son, Sire, also has a LED-light decked out room. It’s unclear the location of this mansion but it’s rumored to be in either New Jersey or Louisiana.

Surprisingly a lot of natural light despite the black paint.
