Kendrick Lamar, the Pulitzer Prize-winning rapper who recently drew massive crowds at Lollapalooza in Chicago, was spotted house hunting in the Big Apple earlier this summer, according to our spies.
One of the residences he toured was a Brooklyn Heights penthouse asking $9.85 million.
The spacious four-bedroom, 3½-bath unit is at Quay Tower where Zendaya owns a unit, as Gimme Shelter revealed exclusively.
A rep for Lamar, who also has won an astonishing 17 Grammy Awards and been nominated for 30 more, didn’t respond to a request for comment. We hear that Lamar showed up to eye the home with some of his friends.
But should the Southern California native call this perch his own, he’d have quite the spread. The 3,533-square-foot penthouse at 50 Bridge Park Drive features a private high-speed elevator that opens into the apartment’s foyer.

There’s an open chef’s kitchen, entertaining spaces, a media room, a mud room, and floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning views of the Manhattan skyline, the New York Harbor and Downtown Brooklyn.
Building amenities include a rooftop lounge, outdoor barbecues and fireplaces, and a gym with a boxing space created in partnership with Gleason’s Gym, where Muhammad Ali famously trained. Additionally, there’s a children’s center, a music room with a baby grand piano, a pet wash and a concierge.
