How Much Is Her Net Worth?

Tomica Wright, as of July 2022, is worth $5 million. After her husband's death, she took over his record label, Ruthless Records.

Ruthless was founded in the mid-1980s when Eazy-E and late music manager Jerry Heller decided to start a business together.

It was an 80-20% partnership: Wright 80 and Heller 20. As per the latter:

"Every dollar comes into Ruthless, I take twenty cents. That's industry standard for a manager of my caliber. I take twenty, you take eighty percent. I am responsible for my expenses and you're responsible for yours. You own the company. I work for you."

Heller claimed that he invested the first $250,000 and would eventually put up to $1,000,000 into the company.

Tomica initially worked as a secretary to Clarence Avant, the founder of Tabu Records at Motown Records, in 1993.

Later, after taking over Ruthless Records, she signed artists such as Big Chan, Bluelight, actor/comedian Chris Tucker, and Big Roce.

Similarly, Tomica signed a distribution deal with Epic/Sony in 1997 and released the album Decade of Game.
