Following his death, even though Tomica was the legal heir to all of his belongings, his will was contested by six ex-girlfriends and two former business associates.īorn on the 7 th of September 1964 in Compton, California USA, Eric Lynn Wright, also known as Eazy-E, was one of the leading West Coast rappers of the gangster rap subgenre. Subsequently, they married in his hospital room on the 19 th of March 1995, but the rapper passed away a week later at the age of 30, on the 26 th of March their son Dominick was born six months after Eazy-E’s passing.
However, it was soon established that he had AIDS, at which point he stayed in the hospital to get the best possible care. It is rumored that he threw her out of their house a week prior to their wedding – while this is unconfirmed, it is known that Eazy-E was admitted to hospital with asthma-induced difficulties.
Their relationship began soon afterwards, and they dated for four years, during which time they had a daughter named Daijah. It is reputed that she was somewhat blind to his fame back then, which in turn caused him to take an interest in her. Tomica met Eazy-E through a common friend at a Los Angeles nightclub in 1991. #bonethugsnharmony #krayziebone #fleshnbone #theartofwar #souljahboy #2pac #hiphopusa #ruthless #tomicawrightĪ post shared by Philippe duneufquatre on at 12:59am PST
Eventually, she was able to prove her competence by winning the Indie Label of the Year award in 1996. However, she proved her worth in the years to come, since she accelerated the distribution deals of the company within two years, meanwhile bringing new names into the company’s artist’s portfolio, while working hard to preserve the artists that were already there when she became CEO. Tomica’s new position incited a lot of controversy among her workers and Eazy-E’s fans, who labeled her underqualified for the job. Even though she gained the most work experience in this position, it wasn’t until March 1995 that her career really took off, as she became the CEO of Eazy-E’s Ruthless Records. She remained in this position until Clarence switched over to Motown Records in 1993, and Tomica followed him there. Even today, Tomica lists Clarence as her mentor and greatest inspiration.
Her first known position was as a secretary in Tabu Records – under Clarence Avant himself, often titled ‘The Godfather of Black Music’ by fans worldwide.
