LaTocha Scott was brought up by her father, Randolph Scott, who was a pastor, and her mother, Gloria McFarlin, who worked as a teacher; her sister is Tamika, who is also a singer. Being a part of a musical family, it was not long before LaTocha began to sing. At the age of six she started to perform in churches, at weddings and other social events, and when she was 11, she recorded her first song together with her father.
Before she became a famous musician, LaTocha was a part of the group Precise, but then became focused on her education, and attended the Tri-Cities performing Arts school. There, she met other members of the future Xscape, Kandi Burruss and Tamera Coggins, and her sister Tamika joined the group. Tamera`s tenure wasn’t long, and she was replaced by Tameka “Tiny” Cottle. Little by little, the girls began to perform more widely and to develop their careers. They were soon spotted by Jermaine Dupri, who immediately signed the group to his So So Def Recordings label.
The group’s debut album came out in 1993, entitled “Hummin’ Comin’ At ‘Cha”, which reached No. 17 on the US Billboard 200 chart, and No. 3 on the US R&B chart, and achieved platinum status, which increased LaTocha’s net worth by a large margin.
The group continued in the same rhythm, as their second album “Off The Hook” (1995) became quite popular, achieving platinum status as well, which contributed a lot to LaTocha’s net worth.
Before LaTocha left the group, they released one more album, entitled “Traces Of My Lipstick” (1998), which was the group’s most successful venture. However, in 1999 she left the group and started a solo career, releasing several singles, but without major success. Since 2012, she has been working on an album, which to date remains unreleased.
Scott also started an acting career, and has made several appearances, including in the role of Vanessa in the film “Fair Game” in 2005, among others, which also increased the overall size of her net worth.
When it comes to speak about her personal life, LaTocha Scott has been married to Rocky Bivens since 1995; they are the parents of a son. Her residence is still in Atlanta, Georgia, according to her official Twitter account.
