"You've taught me to trust myself to do what's right and not whats easiest," she said. "Thank you to our family. Rihanna, I'm forever grateful for you. Meek Mill, Uzi, Gotti, Joe, Khaled, Alicia, Kyrie; the list goes on and so much incredible talent that I get to work with everyday. I love them." Additionally, she showed her love to co-founder and president of A&R Ty Ty Smith, and her husband Juan Perez, who is the head of Roc Nation Sports.
