Voletta Wallace, the Notorious B.I.G.’s mother, recently died.
According to the report, the mother of the pioneer rapper from the late 1990s passed away on Friday morning in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, at the age of 72, in hospice care, from natural causes, according to the Monroe County Coroner.
One of the greatest rappers of all time, Christopher George Latore Wallace is known by his stage aliases the Notorious B.I.G., Biggie Smalls, and Biggie. His legacy only rose after his passing.
During her lifetime, his mother managed his inheritance with success, and at the time of Voletta’s death, the renowned rapper’s net worth had grown to over $160 million, nearly ten times the $10 million projected at the time of Biggie’s murder.
