Long before his debut studio album “Not All Heroes Wear Capes” took the charts by storm in 2018, Metro Boomin was already a force to be reckoned with in the hip-hop industry. Born as Leland Tyler Wayne in Missouri, the now 28-year-old musical prodigy began crafting beats during his high school days.
Leveraging the power of social media, especially Twitter, he adeptly networked with established hip-hop artists, leading to collaborations with big names like Gucci Mane and Future, all initiated through online connections.
In his illustrious eight-year career, Metro Boomin has produced tracks for an impressive array of artists, including Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Drake, and Lana Del Rey. His hit recordings, like “Bad and Boujee” by Migos and “Congratulations” by Post Malone, have achieved monumental success, with the latter even earning Diamond certification for selling an astounding 10 million units. The collaboration with 21 Savage, titled “Savage Mode II,” further solidified his position in the music industry, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200 in 2020.
With such extraordinary success, it’s no surprise that Metro Boomin sought a residence to match. Splurging $4.9 million on a one-of-a-kind mansion, he found the perfect abode within the exclusive guard-gated Bell Canyon community on the outskirts of Los Angeles. Perched atop a sprawling hillside, the eccentric mansion offers mesmerizing views of both the countryside and the city.
Architecturally unique, the residence features a distinctive flat-roofed and somewhat squat design, showcasing the innovative vision of a local contractor and his wife who recently completed the construction on spec.
Spanning over an acre of prime hillside land, the property greets visitors with a grand concrete driveway leading to a spacious motorcourt in front of a four-car garage, thoughtfully designed with tandem space for added convenience.
