Traci Braxton Net Worth $1.2 Million
Born to a strictly religious family, Traci found her interest in music along with her siblings., and performed in church choirs as child. She and her sisters went on to form the R&B group named “The Braxtons” in 1990, but Traci could not contribute much to music through the group as she had to leave after releasing only one single named “Good Life”. The secret behind her leaving was because she was pregnant at the time with her son. Even though she was not the part of “The Braxtons” group anymore, Traci did not leave her musical career, and started performing alongside her sisters Trina, Toni, Towanda, Tamar, and others. As a part of her group, Traci was noted for having the whistle register as well as her versatility in singing.
As the group “The Braxtons” did not prosper well and the sisters began their solo careers, Traci reunited with her sisters in front of the public in their reality show “Braxton Family Values”. This program began airing in 2011, has been gaining popularity, meanwhile it is also helping Traci’s net worth to rise. On a recent note, Trraci has become very popular in the music industry with the release of her successful album debut “Crash and Burn”, which topped the U.S Billboard Hotseekers Album, and also reached number eleven on the “US R&B” chart, and peaked at number eighteen on the “US Hot Hundred” in R&B genre. On top of making her popular and gaining her fame, this success has also contributed to Traci’s net worth.
Traci found her share of popularity only recently as she went solo in 2013, and was signed to Entertainment One under eOne Music, and released her album. Traci is one of those singers who do not give in to the glitter of fame and glamour of the music industry as we can tell by her focus towards her personal life. Married to Kevin Surratt for more than 20 years, Traci and Kevin share a son, Kevin Surratt Jr. Her net worth that amounts to a decent $1.2 million shows some promise of rising with more and more sales of her debut album, as well as from her upcoming projects, including recently joining the Mrs. DC America 2015 judging panel.
I am making a list of notables born the same years as my children for our family scrapbook and Traci Braxton came up as born April 2, 1970 (same year as my daughter) and then she came up again as born on April 2, 1972 (same year as my son) and so I requested her birth date on google and got April 2, 1971. So which year was she born??? My daughter went to high school with one of Traci’s cousins so I wanted to include Traci in my scrapbook.
