2 months ago we covered Diplo’s amazing new home in Jamaica. He built a tropical oasis in the middle of the jungle. The home has inspired so many of his records and projects. Now, he is ready to share the inspiration of the home for everyone to enjoy.
He originally made the home for his 18 children to get away. He attributes Jamaica for giving him so much inspiration for dancehall and beyond. He has rescued horses and planted sweet potatoes, strawberries, kale, and pineapples around the grounds. Diplo undertook the ambitious project by first buying 50 acres of land.
He then assembled an inspired team of artists to help bring his vision to life over the next 10 years. The years of work have resulted in an indoor-outdoor concrete villa clinging to the lush hillside. Bridges, trellises, and breezeways connect the space, allowing the jungle to weave into the home as if one.Â
He wants the home to be a retreat for all creatives from music to art. It will serve as a haven, epicenter, and sanctuary for creativity. Solar panels power the home as well. Pompey is open for bookings here. Diplo had this to say:
“your gonna have the greatest sessions of your entire career because this place is just magical…breakaway from your normal life and go somewhere crazy”
