Rap-Up.com || Rihanna Pens ‘Unapologetic’ Letter to Fans

With her first No. 1 album and 12th No. 1 single, Rihanna has a lot to be grateful for this year. As 2012 comes to a close, the “Diamonds” singer pens a handwritten letter to her Rihanna Navy, reflecting on the past and looking toward the future.

“I look forward to embarking on this ride with you, unwilling to sacrifice what we believe in, taking our lessons and growing from them,” she writes in the note, which she posted on Instagram.

She also shares some words of wisdom. “Let our inspirations drive us, never steering from who we truly are,” she says.

@Fresh Navy, I’m not even a fan of both, but what I know is, you’re one of these blind fans. So you really think Beyonce copied something from her? Haha nice try honey.

Untalented hoes seems to be the theme for the 21st century so far, we real early in it though.

Much time for improvement.

Beyhive just press cuz beyonce isn’t as connected to her fans as Rihanna is. When the last time Bey Tweeted or RT them??? And she created the account after the baby so no Excuses! I love Bey and Rih but Beyhives give bey fans a bad name smh ://

this letter was apart of the CD BOX SET that costs a fortune to buy. she just posted the letter on twitter for those who can’t afford to buy the box set.

This gimmick lacks the decorum and class with her egregious rhetoric to formulate such a deep letter demonstrating such poise and humility. I strongly believe someone else wrote this for this untalented gimmick.

So many haters! If you don’t agree with her letter why does your opinion have to be heard by everybody else, keep that shit to yourself bruh… people really think they KNOW these celebrities all you know is what the media tell you otherwise you don’t know shit… and HELLO ever heard the saying ‘don’t believe everything you see or hear’…apparently not! And who cares they Beyonce wrote the first handwritten thank you letter to her fans… so now no celeb can do that gtfoh! and get a life you haters! That is all.
