Logic has opened up his San Diego home to his fans in an MTV Cribs-inspired video that sees him balancing jokes with gratitude. Watch as he shows off his 16 bedroom mansion!
Logics luxurious lifestyle
The rapper dropped a new cover video for Ice Cube’s 1992 hit single “It Was a Good Day” earlier this month, and now he’s taken the opportunity to give viewers a virtual tour of his 16 bedroom mansion.
While it’s always fun to watch reality TV that lets you peek into the lives of celebrities, it can also be a little misleading. One of the most popular shows in this genre, MTV Cribs, features a ton of actors and musicians who claim to own a lot of things that they don’t really own.
In some cases, it’s just a facade; in other cases, these celebrities lied to the people who own their homes. Ja Rule rented a mansion for his appearance on the show, and its owner sued him. Bow Wow allegedly pretended to own several cars that weren’t actually his, and Robbie Williams was even accused of borrowing Jane Seymour’s house.
Would you live there?
Logic‘s faux MTV Cribs visit is no exception to the rule: He admits within the first few minutes of the video that his fans might not remember MTV’s home decor show, but then leans in fully and offers us a blueprint-like on-screen graphics highlighting some of the most impressive aspects of his swanky pad. Those include a 1,000-pound door, artwork made of gold, two studios, two kitchens, a separate content studio, 24-hour live-in security and 16 bedrooms.
Weird History has compiled a list of all the fake homes and car-related stuff that appeared on Cribs during its initial run from 2000 to 2009. A few stars actually did show up to the show, but most of them did it for the sake of meeting the scheduling deadlines MTV set for their segments.
It’s no secret that famous people are prone to lying about their wealth; Jay-Z once admitted that a lot of rappers lie about how much money they have. But MTV Cribs isn’t the only reality show to do this, and it’s a pretty big problem.
