Tyka Nelson, Sister of Prince, Dies at 64

Tyka Nelson, the sister of music legend Prince, has passed away at the age of 64, confirmed by her son, President Nelson. Tyka's death follows her recent illness that forced her to miss a farewell concert in June, which was intended to honor her retirement from music. She released four albums between 1988 and 2011 and last performed publicly in 2018. Tyka expressed her identity as primarily a writer rather than a singer, despite her musical career. Her passing comes eight years after Prince's death from an accidental overdose, a loss that deeply affected her. Family members, including her sister Sharon, shared their sorrow, stating, "She had her own mind. She's in a better place."
