Birdman Buys Mansion: Rapper Blows $14.5 Million on Scott Scorch's Former Miami "Drug Den" [PHOTOS]

Birdman, Rapper and co-founder of Cash Money Records, has purchased a nine-bedroom Miami mansion for a whopping $14.5 million. The extravagant home once belonged to music producer Scott Scorch, who described the luxury residence as a "drug den" - a place where he quickly blew away $30 million (mostly on drugs and expensive vacations) in the six months while living there.

Birdman (Bryan Williams) is widely known for his expensive and luxurious taste - so the Miami mansion seems like it will be the perfect fit. The size of the home is massive at 9,000-square-feet - a size that TMZ reports equals that of a typical Four Seasons hotel. Along with the nine bedrooms, amenities include 17 bathrooms, 25-foot-ceilings, a below ground pool, an outdoor pool with cabana, a theater, a gym, a spa area, an in-house massage room, 100 feet of waterfront, and a private dock.

Scorch lost the mansion back in 2010 due to foreclosure. The 38-year-old stated: "We'd be at a club and I'd decide to take everyone to Las Vegas," he said. "Do more coke, f**k a bunch of girls. Be up for two days and decide at 11 in the morning to go buy a Rolls-Royce. I probably bought 10 cars when I was high." Russell Weiner, the inventor of the energy drink giant RockStar, bought the home out of foreclosure for a mere $7 million - he then sold it to Birdman for $14.5 million.

Purchasing the gigantic mansion was probably nothing too extravagant for Birdman - he was named the fourth Wealthiest Hip-Hop Artist by Forbes with a $125 million fortune respectively underneath Dr.Dre, Jay-Z and P.Diddy's millions. Birdman told Forbes: "One of my motivations in life is to be a billionaire. We're going to keep working hard until we get our brand to be as big as possible. That's the goal in life, that's what I live for."

Birdman can thank artists such as Nicki Minaj, Drake, and Lil Wayne for his fortune - they were all signed to Cash Money Records.
