Joyner Lucas shows gratitude to Rihanna, Eminem, and more.
Joyner Lucas recently released his new EP ‘Evolution‘, which is his second project of this year, after ‘ADHD‘ earlier this year. He is getting a lot of appreciation from the fans so he decided to show gratitude towards the people, apart from his team and family, for playing a huge part in his success. The people Joyner Lucas thanked include Eminem, Chris Brown, Rihanna, Snoop Dogg, Royce da 5’8″, and more.
Joyner Lucas has never been one to hold back his admiration for his peers, and following the release of his brand new Evolution project, the rapper took the time to thank some of his biggest influences. Lucas penned a lengthy thank-you message on his official Facebook page, the likes of which could once have been found in the album’s liner notes. And, while liner notes have largely become a thing of the past — a shame because reading them was a highlight of the CD era — Joyner appears ready and willing to carry on the tradition.
On his Facebook, he wrote, “Apart from my team and family who I thank immensely for playing a huge part in my success, I want to thank a few other people who have also played a part. Big thank you to my bro Chris Brown for being the first super star to embrace me and put me on tour. Our relationship goes beyond music. Pause.
