So just how rich is T’yanna Wallace? According to sources, Wallace’s net worth is as high as $50 million, as of early 2016. Most of her wealth has been an inheritance from her late father. However, Wallace also works her way, becoming a fashion designer and has already launched a successful collection which has contributed to her net worth.

Wallace’s father Notorious B.I.G. was considered one of the greatest artists of the ’90s hip hop scene, the one who brought attention to the East Coast gangsta rap during the West Coast scene domination. In 1997, the rapper was killed in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles. His murderer was never revealed.
Wallace was only three years old when her father died. She appeared in B.I.G.’s lyrics as well as in the video spot for his popular 1994 single “Juicy”. Today, she is a 22-year-old graduate of the Penn State University in Pennsylvania. She graduated in 2015, majoring in business and management. While at college, she also took an additional job working in a school cafeteria to earn some extra pocket money.
Wallace has been designing clothes and accessories since high school. Her dream has been to become a fashion mogul one day. She has devoted herself to designing her own clothing brand and in 2013 released her fashion line called Notoriouss Clothing, in memory of her father. The line was released just one day after what would have been her father’s 41st birthday. It was initially a collection of t-shirts, but the brand has rapidly been extended to custom knit sweaters, hoodies, vests and hats. The brand offers clothes for both men and women. It greatly contributed to Wallace’s net worth. Wallace became involved in a controversy as one of her t-shirt designs has assault rifles on it. Consequently, many fans questioned whether she made the right choice with this design, given that her father has been killed by gun.
Wallace has been sponsoring her own basketball tournament in Brooklyn for the last five years.
In 2013 it was announced that she will be starring in an animated series called “House of Wallace”, along with her half-brother Christopher “C.J.” Wallace Jr. The series is going to feature B.I.G.’s recording studio, and the rapper will be appearing in the series as a ghost who guides his children to protect their studio from a big corporation.
Speaking about her personal life, Wallace has recently made headlines for calling out her father’s best friend “P. Diddy” Combs, as the rapper hadn’t invited her to an upcoming concert honoring her father on what would have been B.I.G.’s 44th birthday. Frustrated Wallace went on to claim that P. Diddy is a liar who hasn’t done anything for her family as he claims. Her tweets about the issue were followed by many fans, some of them claiming that Sean Combs actually doesn’t owe her anything, while some stood at Wallace’s side and supported her disappointment. Wallace later deleted the tweets and stated that she and P. Diddy have cleared things out, and that she will be attending the concert.
