I Was Sick: Slim Thug Reveals His House Went Into Foreclosure! 🏚

In a candid conversation, rapper Slim Thug opens up about a tough chapter in his life that many may not have expected. The Texas rapper reveals that his first suburban home went into foreclosure due to a mishandled short sale, something he blames on a close relative. He explains, “My relative lady let my [expletive] go into foreclosure. I lost the house to foreclosure because she didn’t do the short sale right and waited too long—it was only like $10,000 or something like that. I lost all that [expletive].”

For Slim, this setback wasn’t just financial—it left a foreclosure on his credit for over seven years. He had to take matters into his own hands, buying a new townhouse downtown with cash. But that experience taught him a powerful lesson about the importance of living without unnecessary bills. “That was the best thing ever,” he recalls. “I was up because it was out of the blue, you know? You just imagine you gotta spend that much money just out of the blue without knowing… but now we back 800, baby! We good.”

Slim then takes us through his journey of bouncing back. After cashing out his downtown townhouse, he was living without bills, enjoying life in a penthouse with no financial worries. He had two Rolls-Royces—the Ghost and the Drophead—and was truly feeling like he had it all. However, life had more lessons in store for him.

He shares the story of moving to a new home in the suburb of Pearland to be closer to his son Kobe. But just three months after making that move, Kobe’s mother relocated to Arizona, throwing a wrench in his plans. “I was trying to be a good dad, move to Pearland, be close to my son Kobe, and make life work, but this [expletive] backfired,” Slim admits. Despite his best intentions, he found himself farther from his family than ever.

Slim’s story didn’t stop there. As he continued navigating his life, his home was flooded during the 2021 Texas winter storm, a setback that caused more stress. “The whole house flooded out while I was in Miami,” Slim reveals. “I should’ve followed my instinct and not moved out there.” But with insurance money, Slim was able to redesign the house, ultimately turning it into a beautiful home once again.

Reflecting on the ups and downs, Slim shares valuable advice, especially for first-time homebuyers. “If you ain’t married, don’t do it,” he warns. “Keep them bills low as possible, live a happy free life.” He talks about how owning a property brings constant costs—property taxes, maintenance, and bills—that can be overwhelming. “The bigger the house, the bigger the bills,” he says. For him, life without the pressure of property ownership was the ideal choice, especially since he doesn’t need much more than his downtown penthouse and his 17 cars.

In his own words, Slim emphasizes the importance of making choices for oneself. “I didn’t have to do the traditional things people had to do to be successful. I was able to skip through that, do my own thing, and make it on my own terms. I never had to stop cursing, stop smoking—none of that,” he says confidently.

This raw, unfiltered insight into Slim Thug’s personal journey highlights not only the struggles he faced but also the resilience and lessons he learned. From foreclosure to flooded homes, Slim’s path to success wasn’t easy, but it’s a testament to his ability to weather the storm—and thrive.
