What is Babyface’s Net Worth?

Babyface was born Kenneth Brian Edmonds, an American R&B musician, singer-songwriter, and record producer who has a net worth of $200 million. In the music business, Babyface is among the most productive songwriters and producers.

His reputation as one of the greatest record producers ever has been recognized by numerous publications.

Childhood

Babyface was born on April 10, 1958, in Indianapolis, Indiana to Marvin and Barbara Edmonds. His parents have six sons in all, but he is the fifth. Barbara worked in production, at a manufacturing facility for drugs.

His father passed away suddenly from lung cancer when Edmonds was a junior in high school. At this point, he decided to go into the music business. He wrote songs as a shy child to express his emotions.

He obtained his high school diploma from North Central. He received his alias when he was still a teenager from funk singer Bootsy Collins, with whom he was traveling at the time. It was a clear nod to his upbringing.

Career

He played guitar in the group Manchild. Edmonds was a member of the funk band, Redd Hott, in 1982. Then he performed keyboards in the light-funk and R&B band, the Deele with drummer Antonio “L.A.” Reid. The Midnight Star song “Slow Jam” from 1983 was one of Babyface’s first significant writing credits. The Deele was left in 1988 by Babyface and Reid.

Between the end of the 1980s and the beginning of the 1990s, Babyface wrote lyrics for a number of well-known vocalists, including Bobby Brown, Pebbles, Karyn White, The Whispers, and Sheena Easton. Babyface composed I’m Your Baby Tonight for Whitney Houston in 1990.

The song marked Babyface’s first U.S. number-one success. In 1994, he also penned the No. 1 song “I’ll Make” by Boyz II Men. Another number-one hit was “Love to You.” Whitney Houston’s number one single, “Exhale (Shoop Shoop),” was featured on the soundtrack that Babyface created for the 1995 film “Waiting to Exhale.”

The same soundtrack also featured singles from Brandy and Mary J. Blige. In 1986, he issued his self-titled studio debut album. The U.S. R&B chart’s top spot was taken by his 1989 album “Tender Lover.”

Triple platinum was earned from his 1993 album “For the Cool in You.” The hugely popular album “The Day” by Babyface was published in 1996. Other albums by Babyface include “Christmas with Babyface” in 1998, “Face 2 Face” in 2001, “Grown & Sexy” in 2005, “Playlist” in 2007, and “Return of the Tender Lover” in 2015.

Real Estate

Babyface spent $825,000 on a land purchase in the Bel Air district of Los Angeles in February 1998. He constructed an 11,000-square-foot home and it was concluded in 2000. He put this house up for sale for $8 million in May 2022.

In November 2022, he reduced the cost to $7,500,000. A 7,508-square-foot, five-bedroom, six-bath residence in Bel Air Crest, Los Angeles, was purchased by Babyface for $4.1 million in May 2004.

Before announcing his separation from his then-wife Tracey in April 2004, Babyface spent $5.15 million to purchase an 8,245-square-foot home in the gated Mulholland Estates section of Los Angeles.

The property is presently held by Tracey Edmonds, Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife, and is adjacent to both Paris Hilton and Charlie Sheen’s homes.

In addition to a typical tract home in Las Vegas that he bought in June 1996 for $255,000, Babyface currently owns a 3,614 square foot mock-Mediterranean tract home in a gated neighborhood in Rancho Cucamonga, California, which he bought in February 2008 for $780,000.

When Babyface sold his Nevada home in Incline Village in 2012, he paid $2.95 million. Seven bedrooms and six baths are included in the 7,344 square-foot home, which is located on a forested slope above Lake Tahoe.

In March 1995, he and his then-wife Tracey purchased the home for $1.9 million.

Divorce Settlement

Babyface reportedly lost half of his total net worth, maybe as much as $100 million, as a result of his divorce from Tracey Edmonds, his wife from 1992 until 2005, when the news was made public.

It is one of the most expensive celebrity divorces in recorded history based just on that. His diverse hobbies allowed him to focus on recovering his own money.

Relationship

During her audition for the “Whip Appeal” music video in 1990, Tracey Edmonds and Babyface became friends. September 1992 saw their wedding. Brandon and Dylan are the couple’s two kids.

In October 2005, after 13 years of marriage, they filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences. Niko Pantenburg, one of Babyface’s backup dancers, became his girlfriend in 2007. In 2008, they welcomed a daughter. April 2014 saw their nuptials.

Babyface said on his Instagram account in the middle of April 2020 that he and his entire family are getting better from COVID-19. Against the infection, he and his family were successful. We have recently tested negative, and Babyface reported that they were well on their way to recovering their full health.
