Lil Nas X’s life turned upside down following the release of his smash hit “Old Town Road”, which was recently named the highest certified song in RIAA history, with sales of 15 million in the US and another four million worldwide.
In March 2019, the 22-year-old, who is best pals with singer Miley Cyrus, signed a lucrative deal with Columbia Records after an “intense” bidding war with a number of record labels, who had clearly seen how much of an impact the Georgia native had made on the charts.
His debut EP, 7, was released in June 2018 — the singer’s first project as a signed artist — which all included the singles “Panini” and “Rodeo,” which both landed substantial positions on the Hot 100, giving a clear indication that Lil Nas X certainly wasn’t going to be no one-hit-wonder. Well, after the release of his debut album, Montero, Lil Nas X has managed to amass a net worth of $14 million, and here's what he spends it on.
Updated on November 10, 2021, by Michael Chaar: Lil Nas X is currently on the top of the world! The singer just released his debut album, Montero back in September and has been riding on this success ever since. While he debuted back in 2018 with "Old Town Road", fans have been patiently waiting for a full album, and her certainly didn't disappoint. Lil Nas X has gone to number one a few times now, and he's earned millions doing it. In March 2021, the singer purchased his very first home for $2.35 million in Sherman Oaks, California. He also splured on a Mercedes car, his very first, back in June, proving that his riches are definitely coming in use. As if his love for great cars and designer goods weren't enough, Lil Nas X also has a great heart. The singer gifted fellow "Old Town Road" collaborator, Billy Ray Cyrus, with a Maserati!
Lil Nas X Bought His First House
In March 2021, it was revealed that the “Kick It” hitmaker had purchased a stunning $2.35 million mansion in Sherman Oaks, California — the news was later shared on his official Instagram page, where he confirmed having bought his first home.
According to Realtor, the property, which boasts 2,580 square feet, four bedrooms, and four bathrooms, was initially listed for $2.5 million in January but its seller reduced the price the following month by almost $150k, leading Nas X to make his offer.
Some of the high-end details include floating concrete steps over a large-sized waterfall that dribbles right into his pond. Inside, the singer-songwriter has an opening living and dining area which is anchored by a fireplace while glass pocket doors open out to a balcony with breathtaking views of the San Fernando Valley.
Lil Nas X's New Home Really Has It All
Other impressive features include Nas X’s enormous spa, a raised pool, plenty of storage room — presumably for all of the awards he’s accumulated in the past two years — while his master suite includes a private balcony and a custom bathroom with a free-standing tub and a rain shower.
"Bought my first house today,” Nas X captioned a series of collective images on Instagram from his new mansion in March. Another photo showed the star throwing a peace sign while holding on to a balloon with the message “congrats.”
His multi-million dollar purchase for a home in Sherman Oaks may be the priciest thing he’s spent some of his fortune on so far, but fans also shouldn’t forget the time Nas X splashed tens of thousands of dollars to surprise his “Old Town Road” collaborator with a brand new Maserati sports car.
Lil Nas X Gifted Billy Ray A Maserati
Billy later confirmed the report when he took to his Instagram and posted a photo of him and Nas posing in front of the expensive vehicle, along with an accompanying caption that read, “Driving down Rodeo in MY Maserati sports car! @lilnasx."
Nas X has certainly come a long way, having recently opened up about the depression and anxiety he faced just a year before releasing “OTR” and becoming an overnight sensation.
Lil Nas X Opens Up About His Struggles With Mental Health
He’d taken to TikTok earlier this year to share his story with fans, writing, "In 2017 I became the first [in] my family to get into college. During college, I was depressed, had no friends and…. my grandmother passed.”
He then developed hypochondria — an illness caused by anxiety — which caused him to be unduly alarmed about potentially having a serious medical condition without exhibiting any symptoms. "I started going to the doctor a lot in fear that I would die soon… hypochondria,” he added before mentioning that school wasn’t for him, so he decided to drop out.
Lil Nas X Also Got Himself A Car
Following the release of his new single, “Montero,” which skyrocketed to the top of the charts on Billboard’s Hot 100, Nas X went on to release his debut album Montero on September 17, 2021, with hit singles "That's What I Want", and "Industry Baby" all doing wonders on the charts!
The success of the album allowed him to secure himself his very own car, and a Mercedes at that! "Got my first car!" Lil Nas shared on Instagram, proving that his riches are certainly going to some stunning vehicles.
The 'Montero' Singer Likes His Designer Goods
If there's one thing Lil Nas X knows how to do, is dress himself to the T! The singer has stunted with a number of jaw dropping ensembles, however, they aren't just your average outfits. Lil Nas X is normally decked head to toe in Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Prada, and Fendi, to name a few.
Whether he's on the red carpet, performing on stage, or just posing for his Instagram, the singer knows how to style himself, although we're sure he's got help, and his 'fits never disappoint!
