Tyka Nelson, Prince's Sister. Tyka (who sometimes goes by Tika) was born to Mattie Shaw and John L. Nelson and is Prince's only full-blood sibling. She and Prince collaborated on songs when they were very young, but not as adults. In fact, around the time that Prince got a record deal, Tyka was running away from home. She found a new home at Bethany Apostolic Church in California and views her times with the church as being among the happiest of her life. Tyka is a musician in her own right, with a style that is very similar to Prince's. You can see a video of Tyka here.
