Kanye West‘s $57million dollar Malibu mansion has been ‘left to rot’ from the inside out less than two years after the rapper bought it and hired an acclaimed architect to renovate it.
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, purchased the 4,000 square foot oceanfront property in September 2021, which boasts giant windows overlooking the sea.
He enlisted in the help of architect Tadao Ando and brought in top contractors to oversee the extensive remodeling plans.
But by the next summer, renovations halted and the gutted, windowless mansion was left empty. Months later, Ye was dropped by multiple business partners and brands because of his anti-Semitic outbursts.
Ye’s Malibu neighbors told TMZ his mansion was ‘left to rot’ and that they had not seen ‘seen anyone around for many months.’

Kanye West’s $57 million dollar mansion in Malibu has been ‘left to rot’ from the inside out less than two years after her bought the property and hired an acclaimed architect to renovate it
Top contractors were hired to carry out extensive remodeling plans. But by the next summer, renovations halted and the gutted, windowless mansion was left empty
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, purchased the 4,000 square foot Tadao Ando-designed property in September 2021, a massive oceanfront house in Malibu
Ye had previously been seen at the property checking out the progress last summer, but his empire has since imploded in dramatic fashion after he launched into several anti-Semitic rants, which were the last straw after decades of outlandish behavior and embarrassing meltdowns.
His anti-Semitic rants also led to the loss of about $1.6 billion of his net worth and he fell off Forbes’ billionaires list, CBS News recently reported.
But the rapper is still believed to have plenty of cash, and the means to redevelop the beach house shell in some style.
And while his expensive plans clearly fell apart, he ironically flew into a new marriage to an architect, wedding Yeezy’s head of architecture Bianca Censori in January.
The mansion has remained barren, as seen in new photos (pictured) The floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the sea have been removed, leaving that side open to all the elements
The inside of the house appears to be crumbling and the metal railings are rusting after being exposed to the salt air, wind and water
The house here is seen empty with no renovations in sight

While one fan posted in 2021 that the ‘Malibu house is in fact the pad of my dreams,’ others have since noticed it falling into despair.
At the end of 2022, at the time Ye was spewing anti-Semitic remarks, a person tweeted ‘someone put a ‘Happy Hanukkah’ banner on Kanye’s ugly a** house in Malibu.’
