BIGGIE'S DAUGHTER CELEBRATES HER SWEET 16 & PAYS TRIBUTE 2 HER DAD!

The Notorious B.I.G. didn't live to see his baby girl turn 16, but T'yanna Wallace made sure he was there for her Sweet Sixteen party last night.
Dolled up in a pink dress and Nikes to match, the hip-hop princess wore a button over her heart emblazoned with her slain father's face.

"I needed to have him here with me," she said, standing outside of Taj, an upscale lounge in the Flatiron District.

"I feel like I'm all grown up now," the teenager added.

T'yanna showed off her custom-made dress by Bronx designer Walter Steele.

Lollipops and Jolly Ranchers were scattered across the dress, in keeping with the party's theme of candy.

"It was a combination of a magical candy land meets rock star," Steele explained.

The hit "Candy Girl" by New Edition played as she skipped down a red carpet outside the club and greeted friends.

"You guys look so cute," she said.

T'yanna's father, whose real name was Christopher Wallace, was shot dead in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles in 1997. He was 24.

T'yanna was only 3 years old when her famous dad was killed.

Kid Cudi, her favorite rapper, was scheduled to perform at her birthday party.

"I'm excited," she said, hoping to hear the up-and-coming rapper's hits, "Day 'n' Nite" and "Make Her Say."

"I dressed up for him," she said, smiling from ear to ear. "I got this little pretty dress just for him."
