Celebrity Estate Lessons - Biggie

Biggie

Considering how regularly Tupac and Biggie are mentioned in the same breath, it might not be too shocking that their estates followed very similar paths after their deaths.

One big difference was that Biggie had a wife and two very young children at the time of his death. His estate was set up to make sure that his children had whatever they wanted. Even after growing up with immense wealth, both his children have become business owners and want to be able to stand on their own.

Wondering about what happened with his music? Biggie’s estate valued about $10 million at the time of his death. It was put into a Trust managed by his mother, his widow, his former manager, an attorney, and a business manager. They’ve handled the investments well; it currently is now worth around $160 million.

His estate also released 3 posthumous albums, has an NFT, and is creating a world in the Metaverse. There has been a movie made about his life with his son starring as a younger version of Biggie. Just a few weeks ago in mid December, a VR concert took place on Meta Horizon Worlds to commemorate his 50th birthday. Contact Harrison Estate Law, P.A. to learn more about Estate Planning.
