Biggie’s former manager secures a major court win against Faith Evans over catalog royalties. 🏛️📜
A Delaware judge has ruled that longtime manager Wayne Barrow—acting as the sole trustee of the late Voletta Wallace’s trust—must receive the estate’s 25% share of proceeds from Notorious B.I.G. LLC.
The lawsuit followed a massive $200M catalog partnership with Primary Wave, after which Barrow claimed Evans froze him out of distributions intended for the Christopher Wallace Memorial Foundation.
In a notable moment, the judge quoted Biggie’s own “Ten Crack Commandments”:
🗣️ “Keep your family and business completely separated.”
