Busta Rhymes’ Wife: The Rapper Once ‘Fake Married’ Janice, Spliff Star’s Crush

Rapper Busta Rhymes’ personal life has sparked public interest, as he was rumored to be married and had a wife who, interestingly, was another rapper’s crush.

While rapper Busta Rhymes has repeatedly impressed his fans with his incredible talent, the intriguing aspect of his romantic life stood out in his successful career.

Busta Rhymes has been involved with several women in the past. Recently, another rapper claimed that Busta Rhymes had once pretended to be married to a woman.

In April 2023, rapper Spliff Star revealed to YouTube star Math Hoffa that he had a “little fight” with Busta Rhymes. He thought the girl became Busta Rhymes’s wife. Spliff Star added:

“He fake married this girl named Janice I had a big crush on.”

The encounter marked the first time Spliff Star met Busta Rhymes. Despite their misunderstanding, it led to a close and enduring friendship between the two rappers, which continues to this day.

Spliff Star never spoke about what happened to him and Janice in the interview. Meanwhile, Busta Rhymes’ alleged sham marriage to Janice wasn’t the only aspect that captivated the public.

Busta Rhymes has no wife but reportedly had three ex-girlfriends—Joanne Wood, Jill Miskelly, and Rhonda Randall.

In 2018, Busta Rhymes remarked that the idea of marriage “made sense” to him. At present, he is, in fact, not married to anyone else but has two women in his life that he holds in high regard.

Despite not having a wife, Busta Rhymes is grateful that he has two important women behind his successful career: his manager, Mona Scott-Young, and his tour manager, Rebekah A. Foster.

He said Rebekah has served as his tour manager for 32 years and has taught him valuable insights into the music business. Meanwhile, Mona has been handling his movie and endorsement deals.

Busta Rhymes fondly recalled that it was through Mona’s efforts that he secured roles in various films such as “Finding Forrester” alongside Sean Connery, “Shaft” starring Samuel L. Jackson, and “Narc” featuring Ray Liotta and Jason Patric.

Busta Rhymes has no wife but reportedly had three ex-girlfriends—Joanne Wood, Jill Miskelly, and Rhonda Randall. This resulted in the rapper having five children.

Busta Rhymes shares his three sons, T’Ziah, T’Kih, and Trillian, with Joanne, his high school sweetheart. Joanne reportedly had the rapper arrested for allegedly failing to provide child support. The rapper denied these accusations.

Additionally, Busta Rhymes has a daughter named Mariah Smith with Jill and another daughter named Cacie Smith with Rhonda. The rapper also had a son named Taheim, but he died prematurely.

Despite his seemingly complex relationships with his former girlfriends, Busta Rhymes has maintained a strong and uncomplicated bond with his mother.
