Prolific rapper, producer, and TurboTax spokesman DJ Khaled picked up a seven-bedroom, 11-bath mansion in Beverly Hills, CA, paying $9.9 million for his own slice of the 90210.

He’s the third musician to own the house: It once belonged to country singer Clint Black, who sold it to British singer Robbie Williams in 2002 for a little over $5 million. Williams undertook an extensive renovation and nearly doubled his money in the sale.

Built in 1992, this 10,681-square-foot, French Normandy–inspired mansion is located in the gated Mulholland Estates community, which is popular with celebrities. The neighborhood made headlines in 2009 when thieves made off with $2 million in jewelry from Paris Hilton’s mansion.

In the home’s listing photos, Williams’ impeccable European style is evident throughout. Double doors open to a two-story entryway and sweeping staircase. The rooms are largely white or off-white, with floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors in most rooms. The dining room might be the brightest room in the house, with a mirrored wall, giant bay window, and ornate light fixtures.

The kitchen is anchored by a large island with gray countertops and dark wood cabinetry. The stainless-steel appliances include a refrigerator with glass door. A large breakfast nook is attached to the kitchen, with wraparound views of the backyard and pool.

The home’s palatial master bedroom features a separate sitting area and a wall of glass doors that open to a private patio with a gas fire pit. The master bath is equally impressive, with custom tile in the stand-up shower, a large stone tub, and a window seat.

Elsewhere, there’s a recording studio, gym, swimming pool with waterfall, outdoor kitchen, and covered outdoor dining area with TV and fireplace. The home was originally listed at $11 million, but Khaled was apparently able to cut about $1 million off the asking price.

Khaled, 41, has released nine studio albums, collaborating frequently with rappers Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, and Birdman. He documents his larger-than-life persona on Snapchat, where his videos on his “keys to success” have gained him millions of followers.
