Kanye West sold his Bighorn Mountain Ranch in northern Wyoming to family Flitner — the original owners — for around US$14 million, R$75 million at the current price. The transaction is seen as yet another final chapter in his rural Wyoming era, marked by grandiose ambitions and financial and personal controversy.

Purchased by west In 2019, the 6,713-acre (approximately 27 km²) ranch included cabins, lodges, heated helipads, and infrastructure that the artist described as a “creative refuge.” When selling it, west appears to recognize that his experiment has come to an end — along with increasing fiscal difficulties, unprofitable properties, and the weakening of the empire Yeezy.

Sources indicate that the sale was signed on September 17, with the wife of west, Bianca Censoriformalizing the document in your name. The family Flitner stated that no historic structures were demolished during the inauguration of westdispelling suspicions of total abandonment — but highlighted that the ranch “wasn’t what it was” when he returned to them.

Wyoming era

Despite being the second ranch — and not the one that served as a studio —, the sale marks the definitive end of Ye with Wyoming.

It was in that region that the artist built a creative refuge in the mountains of Cody and transformed it into a musical laboratory. It was there that Kanye recorded Ye (2018), one of the most personal albums of his career, in addition to creating the experimental Kids See Ghosts (2018), project with Kid Cudi who redefined alternative rap of the decade. The ranch also served as a base for “Wyoming week,” when west produced five consecutive albums — including Daytona (2018), from Pusha T, Nasir (2018), from In the, KTSE (2018), from Teyana Taylorand his other two projects.
