Swizz Beats told Architectural Digest that he had a photo of Razor House as a screensaver on his phone for eight years and that "it is like my screensaver came to life." "The way that it happened was just out of nowhere," he recalled. "I didn't even know that the person was ever going to sell that house. We had to act fast. We packed up two weeks of clothes and moved because we had to put the kids in school. It was that fast of a decision. When you come in touch with a masterpiece, you have to [act]."

"This house just spoke to me," Beats said. "Not only the home, but the lot we're sitting on. The view, the air, the beach, the mountain, the sunset. It made the sculpture so much more beautiful to us. It's a complete package. Like you can have this sculpture somewhere, and it'd be great. But having all the dynamics around it makes it more special."
