Biography

Antonia "Toya" Johnson, a remarkable individual, entered the world on October 26, 1983, and has since established herself as a multifaceted American personality, boasting a diverse range of professional endeavors.

With a career spanning multiple fields, Toya has made a significant impact as a rapper, captivating audiences with her unique sound and style.

It was at a humble corner store in the vibrant city of New Orleans, Louisiana, where the life of an individual, who would later become a prominent figure, intersected with that of the renowned rapper, Lil Wayne, when she was just 12 years of age. This chance encounter marked the beginning of a pivotal chapter in her life, one that would be filled with significant events and transformative experiences.

Fast forward to the following year, when she was merely 14 years old, a life-changing event occurred, as she found herself pregnant with her first child, a beautiful daughter named Reginae Carter. At the time, Lil Wayne was already an up-and-coming rapper, signed to Cash Money Records, and was well on his way to becoming a household name.

Lil Wayne's partner, Johnson, embarked on a remarkable journey of motherhood at a tender age, welcoming their daughter, Reginae Carter, into the world on November 29, 1998. At the time, Johnson was just 15 years old, while Lil Wayne, her then-partner, was 16 years of age. This significant event marked the beginning of a profound personal and professional journey for both individuals.

Years later, the couple decided to take their relationship to the next level by exchanging vows on February 14, 2004. However, their union was short-lived, lasting approximately two years before they decided to go their separate ways in January 2006. The catalyst for their separation was reportedly Johnson's inability to cope with the demands and extended absences that came with being in a relationship with a prominent figure such as Lil Wayne.

Tiffany Ann Johnson, also known as Toya Johnson, has managed to maintain a remarkable relationship with her ex-husband Lil Wayne, even after their divorce, and they continue to work together in harmony to raise their daughter.

In 2009, Toya co-starred alongside Tameka "Tiny" Harris, the wife of renowned rapper T.I., in the popular BET reality television show "Tiny and Toya". This collaborative effort marked a significant milestone in Toya's career, as she began to gain recognition and attention from a wider audience.

The following year, Toya embarked on a new venture, launching her own reality television show, "Toya: A Family Affair", which consisted of 16 captivating episodes. This show not only showcased Toya's personal life but also provided a platform for her to share her experiences and connect with her fans on a deeper level.

Johnson is an exceptionally accomplished writer, boasting an impressive portfolio that includes a plethora of published works, such as the thought-provoking tomes "Priceless Inspirations", "In My Own Words... My Real Reality", "How to Lose a Husband", and the collaborative effort "You Just Don't Get It", co-authored alongside her daughter, Reginae Carter.

Furthermore, Johnson is also the proud proprietor of two esteemed retail establishments, G.A.R.B. boutique in the vibrant city of New Orleans, Louisiana, and GARB Shoetique in the charming town of Smyrna, Georgia.

June 2011 marked a significant milestone in the life of Johnson as she exchanged vows with Memphitz, a momentous occasion that drew an impressive array of A-list celebrities to the ceremony. The guest list was a veritable who's who of the entertainment industry, boasting an impressive roster of notable attendees including the renowned rapper Rasheeda, Tameka "Tiny" Harris, the talented Kandi Burruss, Nivea, the talented Lauren London, Monica Brown, and the captivating Tamar Braxton, each of whom brought their own unique energy to the celebration.

However, just over four years later, in February 2015, Johnson's life took a dramatic turn as she publicly confirmed that she and Wright had parted ways, bringing an end to their marriage.
